PROCESS OF FATHERING--EFFECTS ON HIS CHILD'S COMPETENCE

父亲到底是做什么的？它们对发展有什么直接影响吗？ 或者他们的影响是由于他们对母亲的支持还是不支持？ 他们的角色是随着孩子的成长而改变的，还是父亲的角色， 一旦假定是恒定的？随着社会在哪些方面提供了一些选择 就是当爸爸，不同的育儿方式有不同 对发育中的孩子有什么影响？人们可以预料到，这些问题的答案是 基本问题将在心理学文献中找到。 然而，关于为人父的过程的信息几乎完全缺乏。 即使有一些信息，这位父亲也是一个遥远的人物 透过母亲的眼睛，或者更罕见的是，孩子的眼睛。这个 可获得的信息也很有限，无论是就年龄范围而言 被研究的孩子和用来研究孩子的方法。在这项研究中， 我们希望整合、补充，并最终超越图景。 我们现在所拥有的父亲，通过采取和完成以下工作 具体任务。 1.父亲将直接在家庭中接受学习，与所有人互动 家庭成员。 2.父亲和母亲将在三个月中使用多种方法进行研究 领域(行为、情感和认知)。 3.孩子将在家外学习，与同龄人互动，作为 以及测试以制定四个方面的措施(亲社会 行为、智力能力、问题行为和同伴关系)。 4.当父亲的方式与孩子的成绩有关 四个领域--亲社会行为、问题行为、智力 能力和同伴关系。

Just what do fathers do? Do they have any direct effect on the developing child or is their effect due to their support or nonsupport of the mother? Does their role change over time as the child grows, or is a father's role, once assumed, constant? As society has come to offer some choices in what it is to be a father, do the different styles of fathering have different effects on the developing child? One would expect that answers to such basic questions would be available in the psychological literature. However, information on the process of fathering is almost totally absent. Even when some information is available, the father is a distant figure filtered through the eyes of the mother or, more rarely, the child. The information available is also narrow, both in terms of the age range of the children studied and the methods used to study the child. In this study, we hope to integrate, to complement, and finally, to go beyond the picture of the father we now have by taking up and completing the following specific tasks. 1. Fathers will be studied directly within the family interacting with all family members. 2. Fathers and mothers will be studied using multiple methods in three domains (behavior, affect, and cognitive). 3. The child will be studied outside of the home interacting with peers as well as testing to develop measures in the four tomains (prosocial behavior, intellectual competence, problem behavior, and peer relations). 4. The style of fathering process will be related to the child's scores in the four domains--in prosocial behavior, problem behavior, intellectual competence, and peer relations.
