Perinatal Parenting Stress, Anxiety, and Depression Outcomes in First-Time Mothers and Fathers: A 3- to 6-Months Postpartum Follow-Up Study
2016
Objective: Although there is an established link between parenting stress, postnatal depression, and anxiety, no study has yet investigated this link in first-time parental couples. The specific aims of this study were 1) to investigate whether there were any differences between first-time fathers’ and mothers’ postnatal parenting stress, anxiety, and depression symptoms and to see their evolution between three and 6 months after their child’s birth; and 2) to explore how each parent’s parenting stress and anxiety levels and the anxiety levels and depressive symptoms of their partners contributed to parental postnatal depression. Method: The sample included 362 parents (181 couples; mothers…
Maternal and paternal feeding practices: links with child eating behaviors and effects of couples' concordant/discordant practices
2021
International audience; Past research has mainly focused on mothers' feeding practices. This study aimed to study (1) gender differences in parental feeding practices, and (2) the impact of couples' concordant/discordant food parenting practices on child eating behaviors. To do so, both parents of 105 French children aged 2.01-6.51 years (51.4% boys, Mage= 3.88 years, SD=1.40) filled in a survey with items from validated questionnaires. Results showed that fathers and mothers had similar perceptions about their child's eating behaviors (Pearson correlations between 0.34 and 0.78; M=0.60), despite fathers taking significantly fewer meals with their child than mothers. Fathers reported using …
L'abolitionnisme de Victor Schoelcher, un humanisme mâtiné de colonialisme et de moralisme
1999
Although this title might be somewhat provocative, there is no intent to be anti-schoelcherist. The aim is not to diminish Victor Schoelcher's considerable achievements, but to fight against the unanimous preconceptions that have transformed this man into a myth. By studying the legal and political consequences of his proposals and his engagements, we have underlined not only the extent and complexity of his work for the Republic - that has been little known up to now, though Schoelcher ought to be considered to be one of the fathers of the Republic - but his contradictions too. Schoelcher was so sure of the virtues of the republican values of the mother country, that his fight, albeit huma…
Demographic variables and fathers’ involvement with their child with disabilities
2013
The main purpose of this study is to examine whether fathers’ involvement with their child with disabilities is correlated with some of the demographic variables. Data were collected from 243 Polish fathers who were married and who had at least one child with disabilities. The issue was assessed by two measures: a Questionnaire and the Father Involvement Scale. The results of the multiple regression show that fathers’ involvement is significantly (P < 0.05) correlated with the level of fathers’ concentration on the needs of their child with disabilities, the level of fathers’ cooperation with their wives, the number of years during which parents cared for a child with disabilities, time dev…
Samotni ojcowie w percepcji dzieci
2019
Zagadnienie samotnego ojcostwa stanowi jeden z bardziej interesujących, aczkolwiek nadal mało zgłębionych, obszarów badań nad rodziną i rodzicielstwem. Celem tego opracowania jest poznanie sposobu, w jaki dzieci postrzegają swoich samotnie opiekujących się nimi ojców. W tym celu wykorzystano wyniki arbitralnie wybranych badań ilościowych i jakościowych, przeprowadzonych w ostatnich czterech dekadach. Jednym z wniosków, sformułowanych w prezentowanym artykule, jest stanowisko, że aktualny stan badań nad percepcją dzieci w zakresie oceny ich samotnie wychowujących je ojców jest niezadowalający. Istnieje zatem konieczność prowadzenia dalszych badań w tym zakresie.
Predictors of foster father’s engagement in foster family homes
2021
Tło badań: Ojcostwo zastępcze jest niewątpliwie szczególnym rodzajem ojcostwa, ponieważ mężczyzna, często będąc już mężem i ojcem swych biologicznych dzieci, podejmuje decyzję o odgrywaniu roli ojca zastępczego. Pełnienie roli ojca zastępczego wymaga wysokiego poziomu zaangażowania w realizację działań opiekuńczo-wychowawczych oraz kompensacyjnych, które z kolei wymagają ciągłego podnoszenia kompetencji w zakresie pracy z dzieckiem osieroconym. Cel badań: Poznanie czynników warunkujących poziom zaangażowania ojców zastępczych w realizację rodzicielskiej działalności w rodzinnych domach dziecka w wymiarze zarówno globalnym, jak i parcjalnym. Metoda badawcza: W badaniach zastosowano metodę so…
Rady dla ojców w tzw. "Tablicach domowych" (KOL 3,21 I EF 6,4)
2011
The household codes in which we find the advices given to fathers are the exegetes’ focus of attention since the time of Reformation. From this period on, on the basis of various criteria, one tried to define the genre of household codes and set them apart as a separate body in the New Testament literature. Following the particular topic which regards the exhortations addressed to pater familias, we analyzed two fragments contained respectively in the Letter to Colossians and in the Letter to Ephesians. To grasp the specificity of these instructions, embedded in an easily traceable and repeating scheme, one should start with finding the common characteristics of the said paraenetic texts. T…
Narratives of Spousal Support for the Careers of Men in Managerial Posts
2016
This article analyses the narratives of men managers to see how they perceive their wives' support in relation to their careers. Our aim is to focus on different forms of spousal support and explore how the support can evolve in the course of the men's careers. We are also interested in what kind of gender relations men produce when narrating their experiences of spousal support for their career. The research material comprises interviews with 29 managers who are fathers. In contrast to many previous studies, the results here suggest that spousal support is not a fixed or uncomplicated phenomenon but is constructed as various and flexible by men: negotiated , enriching and declining. The na…
Paternal mental health trajectory classes and early fathering experiences
2016
A father’s mental health is important for family well-being, but research is scarce on paternal symptoms during the transition to fatherhood. This study identified fathers’ latent mental health trajectory classes from the pre- to postnatal period and examined their associations with early fathering experiences. It further analysed, whether a family’s infertility history was associated with mental health trajectory classes and moderated their effects on fathering experiences. Finnish fathers ( N = 773) reported psychological distress (General Health Questionnaire; GHQ-36) and depressive symptoms (Beck Depression Inventory; BDI-13) in pregnancy (T1), and at 2 months (T2) and 12 months (T3) p…
