Correlates of Low-Income African American and Puerto Rican Fathers' Involvement with Their Children.

Fagan, Jay

Journal of Black Psychology, v24 n3 p351-67 Aug 1998

Determinants of fathers' involvement with their children were examined in a study of 60 low-income African American and 25 low-income Puerto Rican men residing with their children in two-parent families. Results show that a combination of sociocultural, psychological, and parenting skill factors influences their involvement with their children. (SLD)
