父亲对孩子的参与与孩子和家庭功能的更好结果有关。然而，很少有数据研究文化规范和父亲参与的交叉点。对于在美国的拉丁裔父亲，父亲的参与可能会有所不同的文化和性别规范，文化适应过程和种族认同的基础上。目前的研究使用自我报告调查来检查67名拉丁裔父亲对父亲参与的看法，大男子主义（即，男子气概和骑士精神）、文化适应程度和种族认同。双变量相关性显示，拉丁裔父亲的拉丁裔文化适应，男子气概的态度显着相关的父亲参与，而种族认同和caballerismo的态度没有。在线性回归分析中，只有拉丁裔父亲的男子气概的态度与父亲的参与负相关后，占其他变量的方差。
Paternal involvement with children is associated with better outcomes for children and family functioning. There are, however, few data examining the intersection of cultural norms and paternal involvement. For Latino fathers in the United States, paternal involvement may vary on the basis of cultural and gender norms, acculturation process, and ethnic identity. The current study used self-report surveys to examine the perceptions of 67 Latino fathers regarding their paternal involvement, machismo (i.e., macho and caballerismo), degree of acculturation, and ethnic identity. The bivariate correlations revealed Latino fathers' Latino acculturation, and macho attitudes were significantly associated with paternal involvement, whereas ethnic identity and caballerismo attitudes were not. In the linear regression analysis, only Latino fathers' macho attitudes were negatively associated with paternal involvement after accounting for the variance in the other variables.
