过去的研究表明，母亲和父亲的养育过程差异有助于儿童的调整。然而，父亲的温暖和反应，对儿童依恋安全的贡献是不太了解，特别是超过学龄前。本研究以236个幼儿园家庭为研究对象，考察了父母教养方式与幼儿依恋的关系。父母的温暖是几乎无关的附件安全和避免与母亲和父亲，而父亲和母亲的反应，儿童的情绪困扰是唯一的预测父亲和母亲-孩子的附件，分别。虽然父母的不安全依恋与父母的回应性较低有关，但与不安全依恋相关的养育机制不同。父亲的低反应性与不安全回避型依恋的连续和分类评估有关，而母亲的低反应性与不安全矛盾型依恋有关。为了理解父亲对儿童依恋的独特影响，还需要进一步的研究来阐明为什么父亲和母亲的这些模式不同。
Past research suggests that maternal and paternal parenting processes differentially contribute to children's adjustment. However, the contribution of paternal warmth and responsiveness, to childhood attachment security is less understood, especially beyond the preschool years. The current study examined relations between parenting and attachment among 236 families with children in kindergarten. Parental warmth was virtually unrelated to attachment security and avoidance with mothers and fathers, while paternal and maternal responsiveness to children's emotional distress were uniquely predictive of father- and mother-child attachments, respectively. Although less responsive parenting was related to insecure attachment for both mothers and fathers, the parenting mechanisms associated with insecure attachment differed. Low paternal responsiveness was linked with continuous and categorical assessments of insecure-avoidant attachment, while low maternal responsiveness was associated with insecure-ambivalent attachment. Further research is needed to delineate why these patterns differ for fathers and mothers in order to understand fathers' unique effects on childhood attachment.
