Paternal involvement in infancy: the role of maternal and paternal attitudes

The results indicate that maternal attitude is significant in determining paternal involvement. Also, it was found that maternal and paternal attitudes is multifaceted when it comes to involvement. The study, however, is limited by the failure to determine the direction of causality.
