  • The Roles of Fathers' Posttraumatic Stress Symptoms and Adult offspring's Differentiation of the Self in the Intergenerational Transmission of Captivity Trauma.
    Journal of clinical psychology, 2016
    Co-Authors: Shelly Nicolai, Gadi Zerach, Zahava Solomon
    Abstract:

    Objectives This prospective study aims to assess the Role of Fathers' posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) symptoms (PTSS), the course of these symptoms over the years, and the relationship between these symptoms and their adult offspring's own PTSS and level of differentiation of self. Method A sample of 123 Israeli father–child dyads (79 ex-prisoners of war [ex-POWs] dyads and a comparison group of 44 veterans' dyads) completed self-report measures. The Fathers participated in 2 waves of measurements (1991 and 2008), while the offspring took part in 2013–2014. Results Increase in the Fathers' PTSS over the years was related to high levels of his offspring's PTSS. Among ex-POWs' offspring, self-differentiation mediated the association between the father's PTSS and offspring's PTSS. Thus, a greater increase in the ex-POWs' PTSS over time was correlated to lower levels of the offspring's self-differentiation, which in turn was correlated to higher rates of PTSS. Conclusion Veterans' PTSS as well as offspring's self-differentiation are mechanisms of the intergenerational transmission of captivity trauma.

  • the Role of Fathers psychopathology in the intergenerational transmission of captivity trauma a twenty three year longitudinal study
    Journal of Affective Disorders, 2016
    Co-Authors: Gadi Zerach, Yaniv Kanatmaymon, Roy Aloni, Zahava Solomon
    Abstract:

    Abstract Background The aversive impact of combat and parents' combat-induced posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) on young children has been examined in a few studies. However, the long-term toll of war captivity on the secondary traumatization (ST) of adult offspring remains unknown. This study aimed to assess the longitudinal associations between former prisoners of war (ex-POWs), PTSD, depressive symptoms and their adult offsprings ST. Method: A sample of 134 Israeli father-child dyads (80 ex-POWs dyads and a comparison group of 44 veterans'dyads) completed self-report measures. The Fathers participated in three waves of measurements following the Yom Kippur War (T1: 1991, T2: 2003, and T3: 2008), while the offspring took part in T4 (2013). Results offspring of ex-POWs with PTSD at T3 reported more ST symptoms than offspring of ex-POWs without PTSD and controls. Ex-POWs' PTSD hyper-arousal symptom cluster at T3 was positively related to offsprings ST avoidance symptom cluster. offspring of ex-POWs with chronic and delayed PTSD trajectories reported more ST symptoms than offspring of ex-POWS and controls with resilient trajectories. Ex-POWs' PTSD and depression symptoms at T1, T2 and T3 mediated the link between war captivity (groups) and offsprings ST in T4. Limitations The use of self-report measures that did not cover the entire span of 40 years since the war, might may bias the results. Conclusions The intergenerational transmission of captivity related trauma following the Yom Kippur War was exemplified. ST symptoms among ex-POWs' adult offspring are closely related to their father' PTSD and related depressive symptom comorbidity.

  • Where's poppa? The relative lack of attention to the Role of Fathers in child and adolescent psychopathology.
    The American psychologist, 1992
    Co-Authors: Vicky Phares
    Abstract:

    Compared with mothers, Fathers are dramatically underrepresented in clinical child and adolescent research. The author reviewed empirical and theoretical clinical child and adolescent literature to ascertain the reasons for this underrepresentation. Four somewhat interrelated factors are discussed: practical issues in participant recruitment, differential base rates of paternal vs. maternal psychopathology, theory-driven research based on sexist theories, and research assumptions based on outdated societal norms. Suggestions for future research are discussed, including parallel investigations of paternal characteristics whenever maternal characteristics are investigated, assessment of both similarities and differences in the Role of Fathers and mothers in child and adolescent psychopathology, and investigation of parenting factors for both Fathers and mothers (e.g., time spent in actual caretaking, career vs. family orientation) in relation to child and adolescent psychopathology.

  • The Role of Fathers in child and adolescent psychopathology: make room for daddy.
    Psychological bulletin, 1992
    Co-Authors: Vicky Phares, Bruce E. Compas
    Abstract:

    This review summarizes research concerning the relation between paternal factors and child and adolescent psychopathology. When compared with mothers, Fathers continue to be dramatically underrepresented in developmental research on psychopathology. However, findings from studies of children of clinically referred Fathers and nonreferred samples of children and their Fathers indicate that there is substantial association between paternal characteristics and child and adolescent psychopathology. Findings from studies of Fathers of clinically referred children are stronger for Fathers' effects on children's externalizing than internalizing problems. In most cases the degree of risk associated with paternal psychopathology is comparable to that associated with maternal psychopathology. Evidence indicates that the presence of paternal psychopathology is a sufficient but not necessary condition for child or adolescent psychopathology.

  • Parenting Culture on The Role of Father in Prevention of Stunting in Toddler
    Babali Nursing Research, 2020
    Co-Authors: Luluk Fauziyah Januarti, Ariska Putri Hidayathillah

Madura culture sees the Role of father only as head of families and breadwinner in the family. The purpose of the research is to analyze the effect of parenting culture on the Role of Fathers in prevention of stunting in toddler. Methods: The research design is observational with cross sectional approach. Exogenous variables are parenting culture while the endogenous variables are the Role of Fathers and prevention of stunting in toddler. The research population is 230 Fathers with a sample of 132 Fathers using the cluster sampling method. The research instrument used is a research questionnaire. This research uses statistical test Binary Logistic Regression. Results: The results of the research with the Binary Logistic Regression test showed that the Role of father significantly affected the prevention of stunting with the result of sig 0.001

  • A community perspective on the Role of Fathers during pregnancy: a qualitative study
    BMC pregnancy and childbirth, 2013
    Co-Authors: Amina P. Alio, Cindi A. Lewis, Kenneth Scarborough, Kenn Harris, Kevin Fiscella
    Abstract:

    Defining male involvement during pregnancy is essential for the development of future research and appropriate interventions to optimize services aiming to improve birth outcomes. Study Aim: To define male involvement during pregnancy and obtain community-based recommendations for interventions to improve male involvement during pregnancy. We conducted focus groups with mothers and Fathers from the National Healthy Start Association program in order to obtain detailed descriptions of male involvement activities, benefits, barriers, and proposed solutions for increasing male involvement during pregnancy. The majority of participants were African American parents. The involved “male” was identified as either the biological father, or, the current male partner of the pregnant woman. Both men and women described the ideal, involved father or male partner as present, accessible, available, understanding, willing to learn about the pregnancy process and eager to provide emotional, physical and financial support to the woman carrying the child. Women emphasized a sense of “togetherness” during the pregnancy. Suggestions included creating male-targeted prenatal programs, enhancing current interventions targeting females, and increasing healthcare providers’ awareness of the importance of men’s involvement during pregnancy. Individual, family, community, societal and policy factors play a Role in barring or diminishing the involvement of Fathers during pregnancy. Future research and interventions should target these factors and their interaction in order to increase Fathers’ involvement and thereby improve pregnancy outcomes.
