The author investigated factors associated with continued involvement 3 years after divorce of fathers who did not have custody of their children. Feeling competent in the role of father, degree of involvement in child rearing 1 year after divorce, and the ease with which they were able to see their children were associated with fathers' greater participation 3 years after divorce. There was no relationship between how often a divorced father saw his children and how involved he felt in child rearing. All fathers were struggling with a sense of confusion and difficulty about their status as parents.
作者调查了那些没有子女监护权的父亲在离婚三年后仍持续参与子女生活的相关因素。在父亲角色上感到胜任、离婚一年后参与育儿的程度以及看望孩子的难易程度，都与父亲在离婚三年后更多地参与子女生活有关。离婚父亲看望孩子的频率与他在育儿过程中的参与感之间没有关联。所有父亲都在为自己作为父母的身份感到困惑和困难而挣扎。
