SILVA, Milena da Rosa; GABRIEL, Marília Reginato; CHERER, Evandro de Quadros  e  PICCININI, Cesar Augusto. The concepts of father involvement and experience in studies on fatherhood. Arq. bras. psicol. [online]. 2017, vol.69, n.3, pp. 116-132. ISSN 1809-5267.

The greater involvement of the mother on the caring for her child lead to a proliferation of studies on this relationship and much less about the father-child relationship. The empirical literature and theoretical production was affected with a shortage of concepts. Among the concepts commonly used, this study highlights the "father involvement" and "experience of fatherhood". We present some theoretical and empirical aspects associated with these two concepts in order to contribute to a theoretical and methodological approach that can be used to investigate the fatherhood. The characteristics of these concepts were highlighted, illustrating them with father reports found in the literature, contributing to its theoretical and operational definition and to specify the particularity of each concept. We hope that this study will contribute to arouse the interest of scholars about the studies on fatherhood, as it become increasingly relevant in a society where traditional parental roles are with increasingly tenuous boundaries.

Palavras-chave : Parenting; Experience of Fatherhood; Father Involvement.
