It synthesizes the trajectory of research and theorization of fathering that has traditionally dominated fatherhood literature. The book explores fathering within the developmental stages of children, from infancy to adulthood. In addition, it addresses the health and well-being of fathers from the perinatal period onward, with a focus on isolation, loss, trauma, and mental and physical health. The book emphasizes positive fatherhood and masculinity, thereby offering new perspectives of fatherhood. It synthesizes cutting-edge research on the intersectionality of fathering and provides knowledge of fatherhood for diverse populations, including military, LGBTQ, and fathers on the margins. The handbook reviews clinical assessment as well as community-based prevention and intervention strategies for issues of fatherhood and examines directions for future public policy and on-the-ground work. It offers recommendations for promoting the health and well-being of fathers and their families from multiple perspectives.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eKey areas of coverage include:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHistorical, multicultural, and future directions in the research of fatherhood.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFatherhood and child development, from infancy to emerging adulthood.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGrandfathering and adult children.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFatherhood and men’s mental and physical health and well-being.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePositive masculinity and fatherhood.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e  The \u003ci\u003eHandbook of the Psychology of Fatherhood\u003c\/i\u003e is an invaluable resource for researchers, clinicians and practitioners, and policy advocates as well as graduate students in developmental psychology, social work, public health, pediatrics, human development, family studies, child and adolescent psychiatry, school and educational psychology, and all interrelated disciplines.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e1) Theorizing Fathering: Past, Present, and Future 2) Fatherhood Measurement and Assessment3) Fathers and Family Systems4) Positive Masculinity and Fatherhood5) Transition to Fatherhood6) Fathering and Attachment7) Fathering Adolescents and Emerging Adults8) Fathering Adult Children and Grandfathering9) Fathering in Diverse Family Structures: Separation, Divorce, and Stepfamilies10) Paternal Mental Health in the Perinatal Period11) Infertility, Grief, and Trauma Related to Fathering12) Physical Health and Fatherhood13) Intersectionality Theory and Fatherhood14) The Intersections of Race, Ethnicity, and Gender: Applications to Asian American Fathers15) Cultural and Sociopolitical Influences on African American and Latinx Fathers16) Gay, Bisexual, and Queer Fatherhood17) Fatherhood and Social Justice: Centering Marginalized Stories18) Military-Connected Fathers19) Parenting from Prison: Incarceration and Fatherhood20) Religion, Spirituality, and Fatherhood21) Parenting Programs for Fathers of Young Children: Lessons from Research and Practice22) Applying the APA Guidelines for Psychological Practice with Boys and Men to Clinical Work with Fathers\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Springer International Publishing AG","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53516337414487,"sku":"9783031144974","price":170.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/handbook-of-the-psychology-of-fatherhood-9783031144974","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
