Effects of father participation in child rearing: Twenty-year follow-up
Follow-up data were obtained on the young adult children of fathers of intact, white, middle-class families who had been closely involved in early child rearing. The extent to which their locus of control, expectations about gender roles in career and family contexts, and academic competence differed from those of peers reared in more traditional families was examined. Greater paternal involvement was found to contribute to a more internal locus …
Predictors of nurturant parenting in teen mothers living in three generational families
Dynamics in a three-generational family: Teens, grandparents, and babies
A sample of 64 2-grandparent, working-class families with a teen and her child under 2 was used to test the hypotheses that grandmothers have a direct influence on their grandchild and that grandparents also have an indirect effect on the young child through their influence on the teen's nurturance and perceptions of family support. Hypotheses were based on research concerning fathers, our previous research showing direct grandfather effects, and…
Paternal involvement, maternal employment, and adolescents' academic achievement: An 11-year follow-up
An 11-year follow-up study explored the effects of paternal involvement in child rearing and maternal employment in prior years on grades and educational expectations of a group of white, middle-class adolescents from intact families. Past maternal employment was found to be a more powerful predictor of children's academic performance and expectations than was amount of father involvement. Part-time maternal employment appeared to be optimal for …

This study examines the effects of several predictors of father involvement in a large sample of single-parent, teen mother families. Ethological and role theories led to hypotheses of negative effects of the child's age and grandfather's presence and positive effects of the young man 's employment experience on his parenting. The data were from telephone surveys with adolescent female welfare recipients. Among the findings are that the work beha…

The Career Success of Those Receiving a Doctorate from Two Schools of Social Work
The career success of 147 doctorates from two schools of social work was assessed using six criteria based on faculty views. Preentry and school performance variables were used to predict the graduates' scores on the success measures. At one university, the most recent graduates were most successful; and at the other, the earliest graduates. At both schools, a shorter time to graduation and a younger age were associated with some aspects of succe…

Predictors of Success in a Social Work Doctoral Program
A study was conducted to determine the preentry data predictive of academic success for 232 students who entered a doctoral program in social work and social science between 1957 and 1973. Predictions were better for females and students entering without an M.S.W. degree, for whom one-third of the variance in school performance was explained, than for males and those entering with an M.S.W. System variables influenced the predictions but scores o…

Teaching Mothers to Teach: A Home Counseling Program for Low-Income Parents
A methodology used by a counselor in working with parents of disadvantaged kindergarten children is described. In biweekly visits to the home of each student, parents were shown how to teach their child specific cognitive concepts to support the school curriculum. Parents were also taught how to evaluate the progress that their children were making, and how to motivate the youngsters to become involved in the home education program. Illustrations…
Class Differences in the Socialization Practices of Negro Mothers
Class differences in the socialization practices of Negro mothers were investigated in the context of their child-rearing goals. Direct observation of mother-child interactions in the homes and a card-sorting method of studying child-rearing goals led to the conclusion that middleand lower-lower-class Negro mothers do not differ fundamentally in their goals, but they differ considerably in their socialization practices. The relationship of these …
