  • Title: [Effects of the transformation of parental roles on the development of the child's personality].
    Author: Le Camus J, de Leonardis M, Lescarret O.
    Journal: Psychiatr Enfant; 1989; 32(1):31-54. PubMed ID: 2813616.
    Abstract:
    This article reports research that tried to make the father's commitment to the child's development more apparent. Based in extensive research, they differenciated two groups of 17 babies: children brought up "only and primarily by the mother"; and children brought up "as much by the father as the mother" -- a balanced sample group regarding age and sex. The dependent variable was revealed by a check of observable relational and motor skills inside a day-care center: each child was watched for 10 minutes at each of ten sessions of recreational activity, for a total of 100 minutes. Factoral analysis of the relationships allows us to think that the child's behavior is influenced by the father's sharing the caregiving on 3 levels: motors skills, opening-up to playmates (peers), a healthy safe relationship with the adult. Interpreting this co-occurrence would now be worthwhile.
