This document discusses research on the positive involvement of fathers in child rearing. It examines how involvement is measured and the benefits it provides to children, families, and fathers. Research methods included interviews and focus groups. Involvement is a multidimensional concept including communication, teaching, and various care activities. Key factors that influence involvement include a father's own upbringing, co-parenting relationship, work-life balance, and external support. Positive involvement is associated with children's cognitive, emotional, and social development as well as decreased negative outcomes. It also benefits families through improved communication and commitment, and benefits fathers through increased self-confidence and effectiveness as a parent.
