This handbook examines the psychology of fatherhood throughout the
lifespan and across multiple contexts. It synthesizes the
trajectory of research and theorization of fathering that has
traditionally dominated fatherhood literature. The book explores
fathering within the developmental stages of children, from infancy
to adulthood. In addition, it addresses the health and well-being
of fathers from the perinatal period onward, with a focus on
isolation, loss, trauma, and mental and physical health. The book
emphasizes positive fatherhood and masculinity, thereby offering
new perspectives of fatherhood. It synthesizes cutting-edge
research on the intersectionality of fathering and provides
knowledge of fatherhood for diverse populations, including
military, LGBTQ, and fathers on the margins. The handbook reviews
clinical assessment as well as community-based prevention and
intervention strategies for issues of fatherhood and examines
directions for future public policy and on-the-ground work. It
offers recommendations for promoting the health and well-being of
fathers and their families from multiple perspectives. Key areas of
coverage include: Historical, multicultural, and future directions
in the research of fatherhood. Fatherhood and child development,
from infancy to emerging adulthood. Grandfathering and adult
children. Fatherhood and men's mental and physical health and
well-being. Positive masculinity and fatherhood. The Handbook of
the Psychology of Fatherhood is an invaluable resource for
researchers, clinicians and practitioners, and policy advocates as
well as graduate students in developmental psychology, social work,
public health, pediatrics, human development, family studies, child
and adolescent psychiatry, school and educational psychology, and
all interrelated disciplines.
