Pappan är central för barnets utveckling, men kunskap och förståelse kring pappans erfarenheter av sin roll saknas. Syftet med litteraturstudien var att utforska och beskriva mannens erfarenheter av sin roll som pappa till barn under sex år. I resultatet ingår 13 kvalitativa artiklar och det framkommer fem teman: hantera biologiska skillnader, föra maskuliniteten vidare, ansvaret som familjeförsörjare och beslutsfattare, strävan efter jämställdhet och involvering samt emotionell och praktisk anknytning. Resultatet består av artiklar från flera länder: Norge, USA, Kanada, Irland, Finland, Tjeckien, Thailand, Polen, Sverige och Ghana. Den geografiska platsen och kontexten tenderar att ha en betydelse för de erfarenheter som män har av papparollen. I samhället behövs en medvetenhet och öppenhet för hur olika pappor erfar sin roll, men kunskapen kan också vara av betydelse för studerande inom olika vårdutbildningar som kan komma att möta pappor inom barnhälsovården. Förslag till fortsatt forskning kan vara hur samkönade par upplever sina föräldraroller. / The father is central to the child´s development, but knowledge and understanding of the father´s experiences of his role are lacking. The purpose of this literature study was to explore and describe the man´s experiences of his role as a father to children under six years old. The study resulted in 13 qualitative articles where five themes emerged: dealing with biological differences, passing on masculinity, responsibility as a family provider and decision-maker, striving for equality and involvement, and emotional and practical connection. The result consists of articles from several different countries: Norway, USA, Canada, Ireland, Finland, Czech Republic, Thailand, Poland, Sweden and Ghana. The geographical place and context tend to be significance for the experience´s men have of the father role. Society requires awareness and openness to how different fathers experience their role, knowledge may also be of importance to students in various health care educations who may come to meet fathers in the child health care. Suggestions for continued research may be how same sex couples experience their parenting roles.

Conflict is a common problem among families, and children may be negatively affected by this family dynamic. Some family characteristics may protect children from negative effects, even in the midst of conflict. Though little research has been conducted addressing familial effects of humor, the current longitudinal study examined the moderating effect of humor on the relationship between family conflict and child self regulation. Two hundred ninety six two-parent families from the Seattle area were surveyed and observed as a party of Brigham Young University's Flourishing Family Project. Family conflict and coded humor from an observation task were assessed at time 1 and self regulation in the child was assessed at both time 1 and one year later. Results indicated that (1) family conflict negatively influences child self regulation, (2) that humor between fathers and children is associated with child self regulation, and (3) that humor between fathers and children may buffer the effects of family conflict on a child's self regulation. Humor between mothers and children and between mothers and fathers did not moderate the relationship between family conflict and child self regulation. These results suggest that some forms of family humor may provide families with healthy child outcomes. Limitations and implications for family therapy are discussed.

Parental alienation is when one parent denigrates the other to turn their children against that parent, often after a separation or divorce. It is well-documented but poorly understood as a form of domestic abuse. This study explores how one Austrian and one Swedish father experience parental alienation in the wake of false allegations of sex abuse, how they perceive their emotional situation after the separation, how their interactions with their children have been affected and what economic impact this has had on their lives.  The study concentrates on white, heterosexual, agnostic men. It is based upon in-depth interviews, and analytically framed within the parental alienation theory. The analysis identified several core themes suggesting the need for better education and training on parental alienation, and strategies to enable effective change to public policies and family law.

This research has emerged from the work I developed, as a psychologist, at the then FEBEM/SP São Paulo s State Foundation for The Well-Being of Minors and at AMAR Association of Mothers and Friends of Children and Adolescents at Risk , opportunity in which I had access to various reports by adolescents, as well as the chance to get in contact with their parents. Concerning the latter, a tendency towards excessive blaming has been observed, especially with regard to both the presumed failures by the father in the exercise of his role, and, on the other hand, the low relevance attributed to other life instances of the adolescent, evidenced by the absence of data on socio-economic factors. The sample, obtained with the authorization of DEIJ (São Paulo s Department of Enforcement of Childhood and Youth), comprised twenty-nine lawsuit cases related to adolescents who had committed transgressions and were serving socioinstructional penalties of the internment type. The methodology applied was that of content analysis, by L. Bardin, and thereby material analysis categories were determined. As for the result, in the majority of social studies, no reference to social issues was observed, highlighting a silence with regard to the State s lack of commitment to formulating and executing public care policies. The so-called problems are reduced to family and personality issues, with depoliticized observations, erased of their violent historical conditions / O presente trabalho objetiva realizar uma análise por meio de relatórios, laudos e avaliações elaborados por psicólogos e por assistentes sociais do Poder Judiciário, enfatizando-se as considerações acerca da dinâmica familiar, notadamente expressões como família desorganizada , fragilidade do pai e similares, as quais aparecem nesses documentos, em diálogo com a questão social. A construção desta pesquisa deu-se a partir do trabalho desenvolvido na qualidade de psicóloga na ex-FEBEM/SP Fundação do Bem-Estar do Menor - e na AMAR Associação de Mães e Amigos da Criança e do Adolescente em Risco -, ocasião em que se teve contato com diversos laudos de adolescentes e, outrossim, com seus familiares. Observaram-se, então, uma tendência à excessiva culpabilização destes últimos, sobretudo às supostas falhas do pai no exercício de suas funções, e, por outro lado, a pouca relevância dada a outras instâncias de vida do adolescente, o que está consubstanciado na ausência de dados sobre os fatores sócio-econômicos. A amostra obtida, após autorização do Departamento de Execuções da Infância e da Juventude de São Paulo (DEIJ), açambarca vinte e nove processos referentes a adolescentes autores de ato infracional em cumprimento de medida sócio-educativa, na modalidade de internação. A metodologia utilizada foi a análise de conteúdo, de L. Bardin, definindo-se categorias de análise do material. Em relação aos resultados, na maioria dos estudos sociais, não se observaram referências a questões sociais, silenciando-se a respeito do descompromisso do Estado na formulação e na execução de políticas públicas de atendimento à população. Os problemas esgotam-se em questões familiares e de personalidade, com observações despolitizadas e abstraídas de suas violentas condições históricas

This diploma thesis is aimed at problems of abortion and simultaneously of a different view of theological and biological sciences that deal with these problems. Concurrently, it is necessary to offer an essential outline of basic embryological and medical processes which enable understanding the given problem in view of importance of this situation. On the one hand the thesis presents legal essentials related to the topic in a historical legal context, on the other hand it does not exclude contemporary trends. It regards the given problems through a point of view of various Christian churches as well as world religious streams. It refers to negative health consequences of miscarriage and induced abortion but in the same time it presents basic information about contraception and differentiation of contraceptive and interceptive means. The thesis also presents opinions of individual churches that express their view of contraception or interception. The author of this thesis thinks critically over these thoughts and invites readers to create their own reflection of given problems. He tries to outline a wide range of these problems in the new, wider and often ignored point of view, that is of father's view. A father is often totally ignored during an abortion though he is actually a half-donor of...
