Danziger, Sandra K.; Radin, Norma
Journal of Marriage and the Family, v52 n3 p636-42 Aug 1990
Examined effects of several predictors of father involvement in large sample of single-parent, teenage mother families (N=289). The results of telephone interviews indicated that work behavior of absent fathers had a significant direct effect on participation in childrearing and that minority mothers reported higher rates of paternal involvement.
