• Fathering in Australia Among Couple Families with Young Children (2011, neutral): “These attitudes may be formed through parents’ experiences as children; for example, some fathers emulate the parenting behaviour of their own father while others aim for a more involved or positive parenting style (Barnett & Baruch 1987; Cooksey & Fondell 1996; Hofferth 2003).”
• African American Father Involvement and Preschool Children's School Readiness (2005, background): “Although African American men have historically been labeled as absent and missing from families (Moynihan, 1965; Popenoe, 1996), recent evidence refutes such broad misrepresentations of African American fathers (Coley, 2001; Hofferth, 2003).”
• Fathers’ and Mothers’ Involvement with Their Adolescents (2009, neutral): “Given that there is some evidence that fathers’ involvement and responsibility vary between racial/ethnic groups (Hofferth 2003), future research should explore race/ethnicity in the context of paternal involvement.”
• Integrating Father Involvement in Parenting Research (2012, background): “Furthermore, many researchers operationalized “responsibility” with items simply asking the degree to which a parent is “responsible for” various activities such as feeding, disciplining, buying children's clothes, and making appointments for the child (eg, Hofferth, 2003 ).”
• Navigating New Norms of Involved Fatherhood (2014, background): “Fathers from different race and ethnic groups exhibit differential levels of involvement (Hofferth, 2003).”
• Social-Demographic, School, Neighborhood, and Parenting Influences on the Academic Achievement of Latino Young Adolescents (2005, background): “Latino fathers tend to be highly involved with their children ( Hofferth, 2003 ), but through gender-role socialization, many Latinos believe that women are primarily responsible for child rearing (Mar´ and Mar´ 1991).”
• Gender Differences in Providing Urgent Childcare among Dual-earner Parents (2008, background): “In this context, two studies linked men’s progressive gender ideology with increased time investments in children (Bulanda 2004; Hofferth 2003).”
