Researchers have identified father absence as a contributor to juvenile delinquency. Consequently, politicians and community leaders are making efforts to re-engage fathers. However, it is possible that the presence of fathers is not, in itself, a substantial protective factor and, in some cases, can even be more detrimental than father absence. Employing a diverse sample of male juvenile offenders in the U.S. (ages 13-17), the present study examined the differential effects of absent fathers and harsh fathers on delinquency. Results indicated that youth in the harsh-father group engaged in more offending behaviors and used more substances than youth in the absent-father group. This difference remained even after controlling for the mother-child relationship. Implications of these findings for future research and delinquency prevention programs are discussed.
研究人员已经确定，父亲的缺失是青少年犯罪的一个促成因素。因此，政治家和社区领袖正在努力重新让父亲参与进来。然而，父亲的存在本身可能并不是一个实质性的保护因素，在某些情况下，甚至可能比父亲的缺失更有害。本研究在美国（年龄在 13-17 岁）的一群不同的男性少年犯中进行，考察了缺失父亲和严厉父亲对犯罪的不同影响。结果表明，严厉父亲组的青少年比缺失父亲组的青少年从事更多的犯罪行为，使用更多的物质。即使在控制了母子关系之后，这种差异仍然存在。讨论了这些发现对未来研究和犯罪预防计划的意义。
