Theoretical background on father-infant attachment -- Literature review on father-infant interaction -- Methodology -- Results -- Discussion: primary caregiving fathers and egalitarian upbringing.
This study examines the unique and interactive effects of the gender of the caregiver and the primacy of the caregiver role on parent-infant interaction. It challenges sex-role stereotypes and suggests benefits of modelling a more egalitarian upbringing.
