  • National Needs of Family Planning Among US Men Aged 15 to 44 Years

    Arik V Marcell, Susannah E Gibbs et al.ARTICLEAmerican Journal of Public Health2016Citada por: 2Referências: 24

    Objectives. To estimate national need for family planning services among men in the United States according to background characteristics, access to care, receipt of services, and contraception use. Methods. We used weighted data from the 2006–2010 National Survey of Family Growth to estimate the percentage of men aged 15 to 44 years (n = 10 395) in need of family planning, based on sexual behavior, fecundity, and not trying to get pregnant with …

  • Union Status and Sexual Risk Behavior Among Men in Their 30s

    Open AccessNan Marie Astone, Joseph H Pleck et al.ARTICLEPerspectives on Sexual and…2013Citada por: 1Referências: 5

    Men in their 30s, especially those who are not married, engage in risky sexual behaviors. Further studies are needed to assess what contributes to behavioral differences by union status and what types of services might help men in this age-group reduce their risk

  • Imprisoned Fathers and Their Family Relationships

    Open AccessW Justin Dyer, Joseph H Pleck et al.ARTICLEJournal of Family Theory & Review2012

    This article reviews the literature on family relationships of incarcerated fathers, examining the literature's topics, samples, and theories. Nineteen studies were identified that treated fatherhood as a primary construct, with 20 relating indirectly to fatherhood. Various theories were represented in the literature, yet with a general lack of studies theoretically building on one another. This article synthesizes the research and theoretical wo…

  • Integrating Father Involvement in Parenting Research

    Joseph H PleckARTICLEParenting2012Citada por: 23Referências: 4

    SYNOPSIS This article presents the approach that other investigators and I take in fathering research employing the construct of paternal involvement. First, I review the involvement construct, analyzing its social and methodological background, its strengths and weaknesses, and how it evolved subsequent to its initial formulation. Next considered are approaches and findings concerning the sources and consequences of involvement, with emphasis on…

  • The Transmission of Parenting from Fathers to Sons

    Sandra L Hofferth, Joseph H Pleck et al.ARTICLEParenting2012Citada por: 9Referências: 13

    OBJECTIVE: We address the extent to which parenting practices of fathers and mothers are associated with their sons' parenting behaviors as young adults and whether adolescent behavior explains this association. DESIGN: Data come from 409 young men interviewed in the 2006 Young Adult study of the 1979 National Longitudinal Survey of Youth. RESULTS: Men whose fathers were positively involved with them when growing up report more positive parenting…

  • Associations of Acculturation with Family and Individual Well-being in Serbian Refugee Young Adults in the United States

    Vanja Lazarevic, Angela Wiley et al.ARTICLEJournal of Comparative Family…2012Citada por: 10Referências: 23

    Seventy-seven ethnic Serbian refugee young adults (mean age = 23) from Bosnia and Croatia (in the former Yugoslavia) presently living in the United States completed an online survey. Young adults reported their own and their parents' level of acculturation to both Serbian and U.S. cultures. In contrast to most prior studies, acculturation gap was operationalized taking into account the direction of youth-parent discrepancy rather than as absolute…

  • Using Mixture Regression to Identify Varying Effects

    Open AccessW Justin Dyer, Joseph H Pleck et al.ARTICLEJournal of Marriage and the Family2012Citada por: 6Referências: 40

    The most widely used techniques for identifying the varying effects of stressors involve testing moderator effects via interaction terms in regression or multiple-group analysis in structural equation modeling. The authors present mixture regression as an alternative approach. In contrast to more widely used approaches, mixture regression identifies varying effects without reliance on tests of moderator variables, such as using interaction terms …

  • Racial and Ethnic Disparities in Sexual Risk Behaviors And STDs During Young Men’s Transition to Adulthood

    Open AccessJacinda K Dariotis, Frangiscos Sifakis et al.ARTICLEPerspectives on Sexual and…2011Citada por: 12Referências: 1

    Race and ethnicity continue to differentiate young black and Latino men from their white peers in terms of STDs. Prevention programs that target different racial and ethnic subgroups of adolescent men and address both individual- and contextual-level factors are needed to curb STD incidence

  • Pathways of Early Fatherhood, Marriage, and Employment

    Open AccessJacinda K Dariotis, Joseph H Pleck et al.ARTICLEDemography2011Citada por: 15Referências: 37

    In the National Longitudinal Survey of Youth 1979 (NLSY79), young fathers include heterogeneous subgroups with varying early life pathways in terms of fatherhood timing, the timing of first marriage, and holding full-time employment. Using latent class growth analysis with 10 observations between ages 18 and 37, we derived five latent classes with median ages of first fatherhood below the cohort median (26.4), constituting distinct early fatherho…

  • Associations of Family and Peer Experiences with Masculinity Attitude Trajectories at the Individual and Group Level in Adolescent and Young Adult Males

    Open AccessArik V Marcell, Sorina E Eftim et al.ARTICLEMen and Masculinities2011Citada por: 7Referências: 25

    Data were drawn from 845 males in the National Survey of Adolescent Males who were initially aged 15-17, and followed-up 2.5 and 4.5 years later, to their early twenties. Mixed-effects regression models (MRM) and semiparametric trajectory analyses (STA) modeled patterns of change in masculinity attitudes at the individual and group levels, guided by gender intensification theory and cognitive-developmental theory. Overall, men's masculinity attit…

  • Changes in Sexual Risk Behavior as Young Men Transition to Adulthood

    Open AccessJacinda K Dariotis, Freya L Sonenstein et al.ARTICLEPerspectives on Sexual and…2008Citada por: 8Referências: 1

    The prominence of low-risk behaviors over time suggests that most young men avoid sexual risk-taking. Effective strategies to reduce HIV and STD risk in young men must simultaneously address multiple dimensions of sexual behavior

  • Why Could Father Involvement Benefit Children? Theoretical Perspectives

    Joseph H PleckARTICLEApplied Developmental Science2007

    Four theoretical perspectives about why father involvement could have positive consequences for child development are briefly reviewed: attachment theory, social capital theory, Bronfenbrenner's ecological theory, and "essential father" theory. Strengths and weaknesses of each perspective are discussed, and the prospects for an integrated ecological-parental capital theory of paternal influence on child development are considered

  • Fathers' caregiving and breadwinning

    Trent W Maurer, Joseph H PleckARTICLEPsychology of Men & Masculinity2006Citada por: 12Referências: 5

    Maurer, Pleck, and Rane’s Gender Congruence Theory was further expanded via Bandura’s Social Cognitive Theory and tested to predict parenting behaviors in fathers and mothers. Results provided some support for the revised theory for fathers: Both perceived expectations from their wives for caregiving behavior and the perceived caregiving behaviors of other fathers positively predicted their own caregiving behavior, whereas no independent variable…

  • Fathers' Role Model Perceptions

    Open AccessBrian P Masciadrelli, Joseph H Pleck et al.ARTICLEMen and Masculinities2006Citada por: 10Referências: 4

    Qualitative interview data are used to explore fathers'( N = 24) perceptions of their own fathers and others as influential parental role models and associations between fathers' role model perceptions and their involvement with their own children. In fathers' descriptions of their parental role models, three themes emerged: types of models that fathers identified as role models for them as parents, affective evaluations the fathers ascribed to t…

  • Parenting Voices

    Open AccessJeffrey L Stueve, Joseph H PleckARTICLEJournal of Social and Personal…2001Citada por: 17Referências: 13

    A new qualitative method for investigating parental identity, the Parenting Narrative Interview (PNI), is introduced. Participants included 28 married couples (N = 56 individuals) with preschool children. Narratives of five meaningful temporally bounded parenting experiences (Marker Experiences) and meaningful experiences in five parenting domains (Domain Experiences) were coded for `parenting voice': I Only, I Context, We Complementary, We Compa…

  • Parental Identity and Reflected-Appraisals

    Open AccessTrent W Maurer, Joseph H Pleck et al.ARTICLEJournal of Marriage and the Family2001Citada por: 18Referências: 20

    A new theoretical model for parental identity, reflected-appraisals, and behavior was proposed. Parental identity and behavior in married parents were then investigated as a function of partner's and perceived reflected-appraisals, taking into account gender context effects. Sixty-four married couples completed the Caregiving and Breadwinning Identity and Reflected-Appraisal Inventory (CBIRAI), developed for this study to assess parental caregivi…

  • Changes in sexual behavior and condom use among teenaged males

    Freya L Sonenstein, Leighton Ku et al.ARTICLEAmerican Journal of Public Health1998Citada por: 13Referências: 5

    OBJECTIVES: This study examines shifts in sexual experience and condom use among US teenaged males. METHODS: Results from the 1988 and 1995 National Surveys of Adolescent Males were compared. RESULTS: The proportion of never-married 15- to 19-year-old males who had had sex with a female declined from 60% to 55% (P = .06). The share of those sexually active using a condom at last intercourse rose from 57% to 67% (P

  • Change in job and marital experiences and change in psychological distress

    Rosalind C Barnett, Stephen W Raudenbush et al.ARTICLEJournal of Personality and Social…1995Citada por: 37

    Are changes in job quality more closely linked to changes in distress for men than for women? Conversely, are changes in marital quality more closely linked to changes in distress for women than for men? These questions were addressed in a longitudinal analysis of a random sample of 210 full-time employed dual-earner couples. Change over time in job role quality was significantly associated with change over time in distress, and the magnitude of …

  • The Dynamics of Young Men's Condom Use During and Across Relationships

    Leighton Ku, Freya L Sonenstein et al.ARTICLEFamily Planning Perspectives1994

    According to data from the 1991 National Survey of Adolescent Males, condom use is likely to be highest at the beginning of relationships and to decline as the relationship continues. The proportion of sexually active men aged 17-22 who used a condom with their most recent partner declined from 53% the first time they had intercourse with that partner to 44% at the most recent episode. Condom use also decreases with age; 59% of 17-18-year-olds us…

  • Masculinity Ideology

    Open AccessJoseph H Pleck, Freya L Sonenstein et al.ARTICLEJournal of Social Issues1993Citada por: 39Referências: 33

    This paper calls attention to the impact of masculinity ideology, an aspect of gender‐related attitudes, on adolescent males' heterosexual relationships. Previous approaches to the male gender role and close relationships, and attitudes toward the male gender role (the operationalization of masculinity ideology), are briefly reviewed. Data from the 1988 National Survey of Adolescent Males are reported. With sociodemographic and personal backgroun…
