Effects of a Prenatal "Information and Insights about Infants" Program on the Knowledge Base of First-Time Low-Education Fathers One Month Postnatally.
Pfannestiel, Annette E.; Honig, Alice S.
Early Child Development and Care, v111 p87-105 Jul 1995
Evaluates a project designed to provide information support to low-income, low-education, first-time fathers. Significant differences were found between fathers who were provided appropriate child-rearing information and those who were not. Following their babies' birth, fathers in the intervention group more accurately pinpointed the age at which an infant ability or need was expected to appear. (AA)
