Yang's research examines family and work changes and inequalities in a global context, including:

1. Intersectional inequalities in family and work lives across the lines of gender, sexuality, ethnicity/race, age, and migrant status.

2. The implications of digitalisation and AI (artificial intelligence) for family and work lives and inequalities.

3. The role of crises (e.g. COVID-19 pandemic and natural disasters) in reproducing existing and giving rise to new forms of intersectional inequalities in family and work lives.

Yang takes two approaches to the 'global' in his research – the first features a cross-national comparative scope and the second focuses on transnational mobilities. His research contributes to advancing family and work equity and justice. It advances understandings of how macro socio-economic, political and institutional developments and cultural changes, as well as emergent crises, (re)configure everyday work and family lives. His recent research has been published in journals such as Nature Human Behaviour, Gender & Society, Demography, Journal of Marriage and Family, and European Sociological Review, British Journal of Sociology, among others.
