Abstract

Objectives The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of father's parental role beliefs, family-friendly policies of father's workplace, and mother's gatekeeping behavior felt by fathers on father's parenting participation. Methods A total of 308 fathers with children between the ages of 3 and 5 years old were surveyed. Father's par-ticipation in childrearing, parental role belief, family-friendly policies and mother's gatekeeping behavior were measured, and the collected data were analyzed using SPSS 26.0 through Pearson's correlation analysis, t-test, one-way ANOVA, and multiple regression analysis. Results First, as a result of examining the difference in father's parenting participation according to the father's background variable, the total educational income was significant. Second, participation in parenting, parental role beliefs, and mother's gate-opening behavior showed a positive correlation, whereas gate-closing behavior showed a negative correlation. Finally, it was found that parental role beliefs, mother gate-opening behaviors, and implementation of family-friendly policies had a significant effect on father-parenting participation and it was found that parental role beliefs, mothers' gate-opening behaviors, and family-friendly policies had an effect in that order. Conclusions Father's personal beliefs, mother's gate-opening behavior and family-friendly policies are factors that positively promote father's participation in childrearing.
