abstract: 'Parental involvement in interventions is key to their success. Drawing
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
on data from an ongoing book-based parenting intervention aimed at
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
increasing knowledge of child development among fathers and mothers of
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
infants, we examined parents'' participation and quality of their
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
engagement in the first 2 waves of the intervention, when children were
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
9 to 12 months old. We also examined the factors that predicted parents''
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
level of participation in the intervention. We report 2 sets of
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
findings. First, parents participated an average of 2.6 times per week,
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
and mothers participated more frequently than fathers. Almost all
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
parents reported that they enjoyed reading the books regardless of their
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
level of participation, though mothers reported slightly more enjoyment
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
than fathers. Second, results of regression tree analyses showed that
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
the most important predictor of mothers'' and fathers'' participation in
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
the intervention was whether or not their partner was also
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
participating. The other important set of predictors was the level of
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
resources, hours worked, education, and household income for fathers and
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
employment status and income for mothers. Our findings have important
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
implications for improving fathers'' and mothers'' participation in
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
interventions.'
