    Abstract: How much power does a father have to influence his children's development? A lively and often heated public debate on the role and value of the father in a family has been underway in the United States for the past decade. Nevertheless, we are far from understanding the complex ways in which fathers make contributions to their families and children. Fatherhood: Research, Interventions, and Policies addresses the central questions of the role of fathers: ? What is the impact of father involvement on child outcomes? ? What factors predict increased involvement of fathers?Bringing together paper
