  • How Child and Partnership Characteristics Influence Paternal Involvement

    Open AccessThomas Eichhorn, Claudia Zerle-ElsäßerARTICLEJournal of Family Issues2026

    Coming from a family system theoretical perspective we asked to what extent selected child characteristics (age and gender of the child, position in the sibling order, biological/non-biological child, child health status) influence paternal involvement. Additionally, spillover effects in the mother’s commitment and the father’s partnership satisfaction were of interest. Cross-sectional survey data from the “Growing up in Germany” survey from 2019…

  • Does the (socio-political) socialization context matter for paternal involvement

    Open AccessThomas Eichhorn, Claudia Zerle-ElsäßerARTICLEJournal of European Social Policy2024References: 7

    Previous literature on paternal involvement emphasizes the influence of fathers’ socialization contexts, considering either welfare policies (Hipp and Leuze, 2015) or experiences with their own fathers (Brown et al., 2018; Parke, 1995). In this study, we combine those two branches of research and examine how fathers’ and their fathers’ (grandfathers’) socialization experiences (parental leave regulations in their early adulthood as an example of …

  • Family Climate in Pandemic Times

    Open AccessThomas Eichhorn, Simone Schüller et al.ARTICLESocial Inclusion2023References: 11

    In this article, we examine changes in family climate during the first Covid‐19‐related lockdown in Germany. We compare the perspectives of mothers and adolescents to explore whether the factors of perceived changes in family climate are systematically and significantly different between these groups. We measure family climate as positive emotional climate, a sub‐dimension of the family environment scale, to capture a feeling of cohesion and emot…

    Leonie Kleinschrot, Janine Bernhardt et al.ARTICLEFamilies Relationships and…2023References: 10

    This article examines young people’s attitudes towards parental involvement in paid work and their association with two channels of intergenerational transmission – parents’ employment arrangements and gender ideologies – the relative importance of these channels and if young people’s gender moderates the association. The data came from a German two-wave panel study of 609 adolescents (aged 15–21) surveyed in 2018 and their mothers in 2013–15. An…

    Claudia Zerle-Elsäßer, Anna Buschmeyer et al.ARTICLEInternational Journal of Care and…2022References: 6

    Applying the concept of doing family , which centres on the organisation of, and the practices in, families’ everyday lives, our research questions focus on the efforts mothers and fathers undertake to keep everyday life going during the pandemic. We analysed two-wave panel data of the project ‘Growing up in Germany’, and conducted 20 in-depth interviews with mothers and fathers in order to examine their strategies in detail. Our findings confirm…

  • Les pères et la vie quotidienne familiale

    Open AccessClaudia Zerle-Elsäßer, Xuan Li et al.ARTICLETrivium2022References: 48

    1. Introduction Depuis quelques dizaines d’années, l’apparition des « nouveaux pères » a fait de l’implication paternelle dans les tâches familiales un objet important des études sur la famille. Jusque dans les années 1970, les attentes à l’égard d’un « bon père » se limitaient pour l’essentiel à ce qu’il assure la sécurité économique de la famille. Les obligations quotidiennes familiales étaient du ressort de la mère. Depuis les années 1980, les…
