This handbook provides a comprehensive review of the impact of
fathers on child development from prenatal years to age five. It
examines the effects of the father-child relationship on the
child's neurobiological development; hormonal, emotional and
behavioral regulatory systems; and on the systemic embodiment of
experiences into the child's mental models of self, others, and
self-other relationships. The volume reflects two perspectives
guiding research with fathers: Identifying positive and negative
factors that influence early childhood development, specifying
child outcomes, and emphasizing cultural diversity in father
involvement; and examining multifaceted, specific approaches to
guide father research. Key topics addressed include: Direct
assessment of father parenting (rather than through maternal
reports). The effects of father presence (in contrast to father
absence). The full diversity of father involvement. Father's impact
on gender role differentiation. Father's role in triadic
interactions of family dynamics. Father involvement in
psychotherapeutic family interventions. This handbook draws from
converging perspectives about the role of fathers in very early
child development, summarizes what is known, and, within each
chapter, draws attention to the critical questions that need to be
answered in coming decades. The Handbook of Fathers and Child
Development is a must-have resource for researchers, graduate
students, and clinicians, therapists, and other professionals in
infancy and early child development, social work, public health,
developmental and clinical child psychology, pediatrics, family
studies, neuroscience, juvenile justice, child and adolescent
psychiatry, school and educational psychology, anthropology,
sociology, and all interrelated disciplines.
