| description | Background: This study explores the factors influencing the paternal
role confidence of fathers with young children aged 1 to 3 years in Korea from 01
June to 10 July 2024. Methods: The research examines the relationship
between positive parenting behaviors, parenting stress, and paternal role
confidence, with a focus on how these variables differ according to the general
characteristics of fathers, such as age, income, and the developmental stage of
the child. Results: The study found that higher paternal role confidence
is positively correlated with active positive parenting behaviors and negatively
correlated with parenting stress. Significant differences in positive parenting
behaviors and stress were observed across different age groups of fathers and
children, suggesting that these factors should be considered when developing
support programs aimed at enhancing paternal role confidence. By situating the
study in South Korea, the findings provide insights into how cultural and
societal factors shape paternal experiences, particularly in a context of
evolving family dynamics and gender roles. Conclusions: The findings
highlight the importance of reducing parenting stress and promoting active
involvement of fathers in parenting to improve child development outcomes. |
