Abstract:
Objectives This study is intended to reveal the relationship between Father-Child Play Interaction, Fathers’ Parental Role Belief and Parent-Child Relationships. The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of fathers' parental role belief on father-child play interaction, focusing on the mediating effect of parent-child relationships in the relationship between fathers' parental role belief and father-child play interaction. Methods A questionnaire survey was conducted on 467 father of 3, 4 and 5 years old children attending kindergartens and childcare centers. To check the reliability of the questionnaire items, cronbach's α was calculated, and partial correlation analysis and stepwise multiple regression analysis were performed. Next, multiple regression analysis proposed by Baron & Kenney(1986) was performed to analyze the mediating effect of father's belief in father's role on father-child play interaction. Results First, father’s parental role belief had biggest effect on father-child play interaction, and it was followed by parent-child relationships in order. Second, parent-child relationships partially mediated the effect of father’s parental role belief on father-child play interaction. This means that fathers need to recognize their parent-child relationship more positively as well as admit their parental role & beliefs more actively in order to have more frequent play interactions with their children. Conclusions In order for fathers to have active play interactions with their children, it is necessary to actively recognize fathers' beliefs in parental roles. Active recognition of fathers' parental role belief can increase play interaction through mediating effect path in which fathers positively perceive relationship with their children.

Abstract:
Busy work makes fathers have to take advantage of the time to maximize the father's role in caring for early childhood. This study aims to look at fathers' perceptions of the father's role in early childhood care in families with working fathers and housewives. This research is qualitative research using the case study method. In-depth interviews are a technique for collecting data. There are three working fathers with wives who work as housewives involved in this study. The results show that fathers view parenting as something important. Fathers maximize time by filling in fun activities with children to build closeness and instill positive values. The motivation for father involvement in parenting, personal experience, and environmental influences are integrated into how fathers interpret parenting and the father's role in the care of early childhood as a whole. More positive the father's perception of the father's role in parenting, the higher the father's involvement in parenting.

Abstract:
This paper attempts to investigate the causal factors for occupational variation between father and son using Nepalese data from rural context. A well-structured questionnaire schedule was used to collect information from a total of 385 father son pairs in Gajuri rural municipality of Province No 3 in Dhadingdistrict of Nepal. Information was collected from those father and/or son, the senior son of a father who was married at the time of interview and whose father was alive. Three sets of variables were isolated as having an effect on the occupational relationships between father and son; father's characteristics, son’s characteristics and household characteristics. Findings revealed that three fifths of all sons adopted occupations different than their fathers. Chi-square statistics revealed a statistically significant relationship between occupation of father and occupation of son revealing a high level of occupational persistence in between generations. Binary logistic regression revealed that sons of the fathers holding salaried job/business and trades as well as those having wage labour are more likely to catch father’s occupation than the sons of farmers. Among all explanatory measures, sons' own level of education and migration experiences are powerful determinant for whether son adopts occupations different than their fathers or not.

Abstract:
The proportion of total parental leave days taken by fathers has increased in all Nordic countries almost hand in hand with parental leave reforms. However, the average pattern of fathers’ parental leave uptake hides the fact that a considerable proportion of fathers use no parental leave, even when they are earmarked for the father. In this study, we focus on the proportion and characteristics of non-users, that is, fathers who do not use parental leave. We distinguish two non-user groups: fathers who use no parental leave, not even birth-related leave and fathers who do not use the father’s quota. This distinction is relevant because it reflects the design and institutional status of fathers’ parental leave. Further, factors related to using no parental leave are likely to be somewhat different to those related to not using the father’s quota. In Finland, the father’s quota was introduced in 2003, but it became fully independent leave for the father only in 2013. We also investigate if the 2013 reform was followed by any changes in fathers’ parental leave use and in the profiles of non-users. We use a unique longitudinal register data that covers practically (fathers to) all children born in 2010–2015 and follow parental leave use until 2018. We find that the 2013 reform was followed by a considerable increase in the uptake of the father’s quota. The proportion of fathers who used no parental leave remained stable, but the reform encouraged some fathers to take longer, independent leave in addition to the birth-related leave. Overall, less educated and low-income fathers were less likely to use any parental leave, and if they took leave, they were more likely to use only the birth-related leave. However, the 2013 reform slightly diminished socioeconomic disparities in the use of the father’s quota.

Abstract:
Objectives The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between family health, family health, and parenting attitudes of fathers with early childhood children. Methods As for the research method, data were collected using the father's original family health, family health, and parenting attitude test tools, and after conducting a preliminary survey of 10 fathers, the main survey was conducted. A questionnaire was distributed to fathers of kindergarten students in K city, Gyeonggi-do, and a total of 244 fathers were studied, excluding 28 unfaithful out of 272 collected questionnaires. For the analysis method, descriptive statistical analysis and Pearson correlation analysis were performed using SPSS 26. Results As a result of the study, the father’s family of origin health, the family health, then parenting attitudes of Fathers were found. This can be interpreted to mean that the father perceives the current family relationship positively and perceives it as a positive experience with the family of origin. On the other hand, the parenting attitude is relatively low, suggesting the need to supplement the child rearing attitude. As a result of examining the relationship between father's family health, family health, and parenting attitude, each factor showed a positive correlation. The relationship between sub-factors generally showed a positive correlation, but the controlling attitude showed a negative correlation. This can be interpreted that fathers with high control attitude scores have low family health and family health scores. Conclusions It was found that the parenting attitude of fathers with young children has an important relationship between the health of the family of origin and the health of the family. This suggests that it is necessary to expand fathers' participation in educational institutions for active participation of fathers and the formation of desirable parenting attitudes. Finally, the results of this study are meaningful as basic data for data development for fathers.

Abstract:
The father plays an important role in child development, including during adolescence, in many cultures. To date, research on the impact of father presence (in a household/family) on father–child relationships has been limited, especially in Eastern cultures due to the overwhelming influence of traditional gender role attitudes. The purposes of this study are to record and compare descriptions (i.e., profiles) of the father’s presence, and to investigate Turkish adults’ reported experiences of their father’s presence during their childhood. A sample of 401 participants completed a Turkish version of the Father’s Presence Questionnaire. The resulting profiles and analyses of reports of the father’s presence show that perceptions of the fathers’ involvements with the participants and the participants’ feelings about their fathers are strongly correlated with their reported father–mother relationships as well as the mother’s support for the relationship with the father. The profiles of the male and female adult participants were quite distinct regarding recollections of physical closeness with the father because of the less frequent physical interactions between males and their fathers compared with females.

Abstract:
ABSTRAKKegiatan pengabdian kepada masyarakat (PKM) ini ditujukan untuk peningkatan peran ayah dalam keluarga terutama dalam keterlibatannya sebagai ayah. Berangkat dari kegelisahan kaum ayah di Kelurahan Puhun Tembok Kota Bukittinggi, rutinitas dan tanggung jawab sebagai ayah di ruang publik mengurangi kualitas komunikasi bersama anak di rumah. Pada pembicaraan forum ayah, beberapa ayah memiliki kendala dalam kapasitasnya sebagai suami dan ayah untuk membicarakan persoalan seputar ke-Ayah-an. Untuk memaksimalkan tujuan kegiatan ini, Tim PKM sudah menentukan metode kegiatan dimulai dari persiapan, screening, pelaksanaan, evaluasi serta laporan dan luaran kegiatan. Keagiatan akan menjadi lebih terarah dengan hadirnya fasilitator yang akan memfasilitasi diskusi terarah oleh forum ayah dalam mengkaji persoalan tematis. Temuannya adalah beberapa ayah memiliki kesulitan untuk mengekspresikan diri mereka untuk berkomunikasi dan melaksanakan peran-peran ayah karena tidak terdapatnya media yang membicarakan hal itu layaknya kaum ibu. Meskipun begitu, kegiatan ini menjadi awal dari keterbukaan ayah untuk berkomunikasi dan bersikap lebih terbuka di dalam keluarga. Menurut para ayah, kegiatan ini menjadi media bagi mereka untuk saling berbagi dan mendengarkan pendapat sehubungan dalam peningkatan perannya sebagai ayah dan kepala keluarga di rumah. Kata kunci: Forum ayah, peran ayah; keluarga; anak ABSTRACTThis community service activity (PKM) is aimed at increasing the role of fathers in the family, especially in their involvement as fathers. Departing from the anxiety of fathers in Puhun Tembok Village, Bukittinggi City, the routine and responsibility of being a father in public spaces reduces the quality of communication with children at home. In the discussion of the father's forum, some fathers have difficulties in their capacity as husbands and fathers to discuss issues related to fatherhood. To maximize the purpose of this activity, the PKM Team has determined the method of activities starting from preparation, screening, implementation, evaluation as well as reports and activity outputs. Activities will become more focused with the presence of a facilitator who will facilitate focused discussions by the father's forum in reviewing thematic issues. The finding is that some fathers have difficulty expressing themselves to communicate and carry out fatherly roles because there is no media that talks about it like mothers. Even so, this activity was the beginning of the father's openness to communicate and be more open in the family. According to the fathers, this activity became a medium for them to share and listen to opinions regarding the improvement of their roles as fathers and heads of families at home.

Abstract:
This study explores the meaning of fathering among men identified as fathers or father figures of 24-month-old children enrolled in Early Head Start research sites. Fathers were asked open-ended questions about their experiences of being fathers and their relationships with their own fathers. These men spoke of how important “being there” was for them in their relationship with their child as well as how the relationship with their own fathers influenced them as a parent. This study supports the theory of intergenerational parenting and furthers our knowledge and understanding of what some men feel are important aspects of being a good father. A theoretical framework on why men may model their father's behaviors is offered, as are implications for practitioners.

Abstract:
The involvement of fathers in parenting is an interesting discussion today. Many research show positive impacts of fathers' interactions in parenting on child development. The reality in Jakarta is that fathers work full time all day, and many fathers still think that child management is the mother's duty. This study aimed to see how the relationship between the father's interaction in parenting and the child's interpersonal intelligence. This study used a sample of 115 fathers, and children were collected using a simple random sampling technique. The research method used is correlational. The instrument was a questionnaire compiled independently and distributed to the father to measure the father's interactions in parenting in the form of a Likert scale, interpersonal intelligence measured through a multiple intelligence instrument (Jamaris, 2018). Based on data analysis using Pearson's current product trials, the researcher found that trust (rxy) was 0, 509 with p = 0.000 (p <0.001). Thus, it can be stated that the higher the father is involved in parenting, the better the level of development of the child's interpersonal intelligence. The role of fathers in parenting is significant in child development, especially in developing multiple intelligence possessed by children.

Abstract:
Studies of nonresident fathers have largely neglected the influence of their personality on their contact and involvement with children. The present two-stage study, using quantitative and qualitative data collection methods, undertook to investigate the extent to which selected personality characteristics influenced nonresident fathers� continued engagement with children. The study initially collected demographic and personal data from two hundred and sixty nonresident fathers throughout Australia. This first stage of data collection focussed on fathers� experience of the separation and their subsequent frequency and level of contact and their level of involvement with children. It included several multi-item variables, which measured nonresident fathers� relationships with former partners and children, their adjustment to their new parental role, their role satisfaction and role strain. It also included measures of fatherhood salience, nonresident fathers� parental authority within the separated family, their satisfaction with that authority, their attitude to child support and their perception of resident mothers� attitude to contact. It also administered abridged Sensitivity and Impulsivity scales devised by Eysenck (1969). At the second stage of the study, one hundred and thirty-five of these fathers participated in an interview. One hundred and twenty of them completed a personality questionnaire, which measured scores on the four folk scales of Responsibility, Socialization, Self-control and Good Impression, taken from the California Psychological Inventory. The study found Socialization was the only selected personality characteristic to be significantly associated with nonresident fathers� engagement with children. All four folk scales were positively correlated with nonresident fathers� role adjustment, which was significantly associated with nonresident fathers� contact and was part of the model best predicting their involvement with children. Results showed that nonresident fathers� scores on the Sensitivity measure were negatively associated with role adjustment. Most nonresident fathers in the study had frequent contact with children but limited involvement with them. They reported having little scope to share in parental decision making or to be involved in children�s schooling. The study found fatherhood salience, role adjustment, parental authority and attitude to child support to be positively associated with engagement. It showed interparental hostility, interparental conflict and nonresident fathers� role strain to be negatively correlated with engagement. The study also found that dissatisfaction with parental authority within the separated family, role strain and a negative attitude to child support were associated with ongoing interparental hostility. Qualitative data confirmed nonresident fathers� common experience of being marginalised within the family. They also revealed that many participants went to great lengths to maintain some parental relevancy for their children, despite social and legal systems tending to impede them from meeting parental responsibilities and caring for their children.

Abstract:
The present study focuses on how a father's supportive presence during interactions with his child influences his/her social outcomes in adolescence. Ethological theories of attachment provide a theoretical basis for the investigation of father-child interactions because they provide us with an explanation regarding how and why child-caregiver relationships function to influence a child's development and later social functioning. Structural equation modeling was used to construct a theoretical model by which fathering behaviors influence later psychosocial outcomes, particularly impulse control and risky behaviors during adolescence. For boys, supportive mothering behaviors had a greater influence on impulse control than supportive fathering behaviors. The opposite was true for girls. For girls, supportive fathering behaviors had a greater influence on impulse control than supportive mothering behaviors. Impulse control served a partial mediating effect between supportive parenting behaviors and risk-taking behaviors. For sons, supportive mothering behaviors had a significant positive impact on impulse control during adolescence. Conversely, for daughters, supportive fathering behaviors—but not supportive mothering behaviors—had a significant positive impact on impulse control during adolescence. In fact, supportive mothering behaviors had an insignificant effect on daughters' impulse control during adolescence,

Abstract:
It has been recognized that Western bereavement programs, and the research on which they are based, rely primarily on models of female grief and fail to adequately take into account gender differences, especially men's experiences of bereavement. As a result, in contemporary research, fathers' grief has been studied primarily through the lens of mothers' grief. This comparative approach has lead to the perception, in some bereavement studies, that fathers' experience of grief is less intense and debilitating than that of mothers. This has been reported in studies of infant death, catastrophic accident death, and death from childhood cancer. The study to be discussed examines fathers' experience of bereavement, using both the ethical framework of the moral philosopher Paul Ricoeur, and phenomenological analysis. The findings from a series of interviews conducted with 5 bereaved fathers will be presented. The emergent themes will be discussed, specifically: 1) Bereaved fathers' experiences of social expectation and regulation; 2) bereaved fathers' challenges with issues of morality (for example, what it means to be a good father, a good spouse, etcetera.); 3) bereaved fathers' experiences with bereavement support services. By focusing on the experience of bereaved fathers', my study challenges the common practice of comparing fathers' grief to that of mothers will be avoided. This study is designed to show how the experience of bereaved fathers is gendered and must be examined in relation to social and familial expectations, as well as internalized standards of proper behavior. This study will contribute to building both a theoretical and clinical evidence base for the field of bereavement studies as well as to the interdisciplinary field of palliative care.
Les programmes de deuil occidentaux et la recherche qui les soutiennent ont été reconnus comme étant basés sur des models de deuil en grande partie féminins, donc qui échouent à tenir compte des expériences des hommes. En conséquence, la recherche actuelle en grande majorité étudie le deuil des hommes en comparaison avec le deuil des femmes. Cette approche comparative amène une perspective selon laquelle le deuil des hommes est moins intense et incapacitant que celui des femmes. Ceci a été reporté dans les études portant sur le deuil des nourrissons, les morts part accidents catastrophiques et les morts de cancer dans l'enfance. Cette étude examine l'expérience du deuil chez les pères, en utilisant l'approche étique du philosophe Paul Ricoeur ainsi que l'analyse phénoménologique. Les résultats d'une série d'entrevue avec cinq pères endeuillés seront présentés. Les thèmes saillants seront discutés, notamment 1) leurs expériences des attentes et des règles sociales, 2) les défis que les pères endeuillés perçoivent en rapport avec les questions morales (tel que, qu'est-ce qu'être un bon père, un bon époux, etcetera.) et finalement 3) leurs expériences des services de soutient au gens endeuillés. En mettant l'emphase sur les expériences des pères endeuillés, la pratique commune de comparer le deuil des mères et des pères se trouve évité. Cette étude a pour but de démontrer que l'expérience des pères est affectée par leur sexe et doit être examinée en relation avec les attentes sociales et familiales, ainsi que les standard de comportements adéquats qui sont intériorisés socialement. L'étude contribuera à bâtir une base théorique et empirique dans le domaine des études sur le deuil et apportera une contribution substantielle à l'approche interdisciplinaire qui prime en soins palliatifs.

Abstract:
This thesis reports the findings of an in-depth narrative study, involving 23 foster-fathers from within an independent foster care agency. The foster care of ‘looked after’ children in Britain has undergone considerable organisational change over the last few decades. This change to fostering has coincided with feminist and sociological discourses that have developed our understanding of family and gender relations. However, as research and practice have tended to focus on how women look after fostered children, these new ways of looking at gender roles and family relations have not been applied to families who foster. This focus on women as foster carers preserves traditionally gendered roles where women are seen as homemakers. Therefore, there is little understanding of what it is that men do within fostering families and men are routinely assigned a secondary role, as support carer or breadwinner, to a woman main carer. This study aims to add to the understanding of foster care by using feminist concepts around intersectionality and performativity to reappraise the literature and reflect on foster-fathers’ experiences as they see them. Data were gathered through mixed methods involving foster-father interviews and observational diaries alongside gathering data from 70 social worker questionnaires. While men in the study performed traditionally masculine roles, many were also seen to take on roles normally performed by women. The study highlights the complexity of foster-fathering because men were seen to perform roles and tasks that are not currently attributed to them. This complexity is often overlooked in both research and social work practice. The findings from this study show men developing caring alone in isolation from social workers. Furthermore, the findings suggest social workers could better support men and women negotiate roles within fostering that extend beyond performing gender which reproduce existing male breadwinner and female homemaking roles.

Abstract:
ABSTRACT Background: The death of a child is a painful experience for parents. The distress of bereaved fathers remained inadequately understood since most of the existing studies had concentrated mainly on the mothers’ experience. This scoping review aimed to investigate the fathers’ experience on the incident of newborn death. Subjects and Method: A scoping review method was conducted in eight stages including (1) Identification of study problems; (2) Determining priority problem and study question; (3) Determining framework; (4) Literature searching; (5) Article selec­tion; (6) Critical appraisal; (7) Data extraction; and (8) Mapping. The research question was identified using population, exposure, and outcome(s) (PEOS) framework. The search included PubMed, Wiley Online Library, Science Direct, ProQuest, EBSCO, gray literature through the Google Scholar search engine databases. The inclusion criteria were English-language and primary studied full-text articles published between 2010 and 2019. A total of 307 articles were obtained by the searched database. After the review process, seven articles were eligible for this review. The data were reported by the PRISMA flow chart. Results: A total of 307 articles were obtained by the searched databases. After screening, 55,052 articles were excluded because of 54,847 articles with irrelevant topics, 22 book review articles, and 183 duplicate articles. Of the remaining 88 articles, only 18 articles met the inclusion criteria. After conducting critical appraisal, a total of six articles from developed countries (Australia, Sweden, Spain, and Columbia) with qualitative studies was selected to further review. This review emphasized three main topics about experiences of fathers after the death of the newborn, namely psychological conditions and coping behaviors of fathers, and supportive care from health professionals. Conclusion: Further support and care of health professionals need to focus on fathers’ experience of grief following newborn death, especially on their physical and mental well-being. Keywords: newborn death, father experience, health professionals, coping behaviors Correspondence: Dwi Reza Wahyuni. Universitas ‘Aisyiyah Yogyakarta. Jl.

WANG, XIAO-TAO. "MASCULINITY AND IDENTITY IN ZADIE SMITH’S WHITE TEETH." In 2021 International Conference on Education, Humanity and Language, Art. Destech Publications, Inc., 2021. http://dx.doi.org/10.12783/dtssehs/ehla2021/35683.

Abstract:
In White Teeth, Zadie Smith portrays the lives of three immigrant families in Britain in the late half of twentieth century. Besides the generally celebrated theme of multiculturalism, this article argues that the novel is an exploration of the relationship between the identity of the second-generation immigrants and their fathers’ masculinity. The lack of masculinity in the fathers among the first-generation immigrants makes the second-generation immigrants cannot construct their British identity, they have to turn to other fatherly fingers for financial and social capital. Through the portrait of masculinity, the author expresses her concern of the racial discrimination against the immigrants and the importance of first-generation immigrants’ masculinity. But on the other hand, the novel’s portrait of men without masculinity intensified the stereotyped negative image of immigrants.

Abstract:
The share of couples who cohabit prior to marriage has increased over time. Among marriages that took place between 2015 and 2019, three quarters were preceded by cohabitation, up from only one-third in the mid-to-late 70s (FP-21-04). This shift in behavior has been accompanied by a shift in attitudes toward cohabitation. Using Monitoring the Future data, this profile examines change in high school seniors’ attitudes toward cohabitation as a testing ground for marriage from 1976 to 2020. This measure is based on agreement or disagreement (neutral responses are not shown) with the statement “It is usually a good idea for a couple to live together before getting married in order to find out whether they really get along.” This profile updates previous profiles on high school seniors’ attitudes toward cohabitation using the most recent available data (FP-19-10; FP-16-13), and is a companion profile to High School Seniors’ Expectations to Marry, 2020 (FP-22-04).

Abstract:
Using data for 17 countries in Europe and North America, we compare the career trajectories of mothers and fathers and of women and men without children across cohorts and at different points in their life cycle. There is wide cross-country variation in employment and earnings gaps at age 30. At age 50, however, employment gaps between mothers and non-mothers have closed in most countries. We also observe convergence in employment gaps between mothers and fathers by age 50, but these gaps do not close altogether. Motherhood gaps in earnings also close by age 50 between mothers and non-mothers, particularly among the highly educated. But there is strong persistence in earnings gaps between mothers and fathers even among highly educated parents. The main reasons for the remaining gaps at later stages in the life-cycle are part-time work among women and fatherhood premia as fathers’ earnings outperform non-fathers’ over their life-cycle.

Full text
Abstract:
This Evidence Check Rapid Review aims to identify and summarise practices and interventions which support engaging fathers and partners in community and care settings where their child and/or family is receiving care. Through a systematic review of peer reviewed and grey literature, it aims to identify effective interventions and barriers and enablers to implementing effective father-inclusive practices in these settings. Specific settings include antenatal, birthing and community child health settings where children and families receive care from conception to five years of age. Although the review identified gaps in the evidence it concludes that there is evidence for father-inclusive practices in promoting a range of health outcomes for families.
