Using data from 182 dual-earner couples experiencing the transition to parenthood, this study examined associations between prenatal involvement, gender role beliefs, and maternal gatekeeping and new fathers' involvement in child health care. Results indicated that prenatal father involvement was associated with both fathers' direct engagement in child health care and fathers' perceived influence in child health-related decision-making. Fathers also demonstrated greater direct engagement in child health care when mothers held more nontraditional beliefs about gender roles. Moreover, when mothers were more encouraging of fathers' involvement in childrearing, fathers felt more influential in child health-related decision-making, whereas when mothers engaged in greater gate closing behavior, fathers with more traditional gender role beliefs felt less influential in child health-related decision-making. This study suggests that fathers' prenatal involvement, mothers' beliefs, and maternal gatekeeping may play a role in the development of new fathers' involvement in child health care at the transition to parenthood.
本研究利用来自182对经历为人父母角色转变的双职工夫妇的数据，考察了产前参与、性别角色观念、母亲的把关行为与新父亲参与儿童保健之间的关联。结果表明，父亲在产前的参与既与父亲直接参与儿童保健有关，也与父亲在儿童健康相关决策中所感知到的影响力有关。当母亲对性别角色持有更多非传统观念时，父亲在儿童保健方面也表现出更高的直接参与度。此外，当母亲更鼓励父亲参与育儿时，父亲在儿童健康相关决策中会感觉自己更有影响力；而当母亲更多地采取封闭行为时，具有更传统性别角色观念的父亲在儿童健康相关决策中会感觉自己影响力较小。本研究表明，父亲的产前参与、母亲的观念以及母亲的把关行为可能在新父亲在为人父母角色转变期参与儿童保健的过程中发挥作用。
