This study examined paternal involvement in parenting, the association between parents' perception of mutual support, and the relation to their children's well-being before (t1) and after the transition to first grade (t2). Participants were first and second generation immigrant families from Turkey (n = 134). In addition, German families (n = 45) were included for the comparison of paternal involvement. The percentage of highly involved fathers was higher in the German sub-sample (54 %) than in the Turkish sub-sample (38 %), but we found no influence of parents' education, household income, employment status, or children's gender. First generation fathers were more likely to be highly involved than second generation fathers. Analyses of the longitudinal data revealed that mothers with highly involved fathers were more likely to report higher marital support. This pattern was less clear for fathers. Children with highly involved fathers reported significantly higher well-being at t1. For t2, a moderator analysis revealed a positive effect on children's well-being only for those fathers who were both highly involved and reported the highest fathering self-efficacy. Among other variables, we controlled for children's well-being at t1, their health status, fathers' work hours and mothers' marital satisfaction.
本研究考察了父亲在养育子女过程中的参与度、父母对相互支持的认知之间的关联,以及在升入一年级之前(t1)和之后(t2)与子女幸福感的关系。参与者是来自土耳其的第一代和第二代移民家庭(n = 134)。此外,还纳入了德国家庭(n = 45)以比较父亲的参与度。在德国子样本中,高度参与的父亲比例(54%)高于土耳其子样本(38%),但我们未发现父母教育程度、家庭收入、就业状况或子女性别产生的影响。第一代父亲比第二代父亲更有可能高度参与。对纵向数据的分析表明,父亲高度参与的母亲更有可能报告更高的婚姻支持。这种模式对父亲来说不太明显。父亲高度参与的孩子在t1时报告的幸福感显著更高。对于t2,一项调节分析表明,只有那些高度参与且报告了最高育儿自我效能感的父亲才对孩子的幸福感有积极影响。在其他变量中,我们控制了孩子在t1时的幸福感、他们的健康状况、父亲的工作时长和母亲的婚姻满意度。
