Abstract

Abstract The term “social father” refers to the social element of fatherhood in contrast with the biological. Demographic trends and advances in technology since the 1980s have brought social fathers to the forefront of theoretical and legal debates. Contemporary research on social fathers focuses on comparing the differences between social and biological fathers while assessing child outcomes. Other researchers focus on how fathers construct their social identity regardless of their genetic relationship with the child.
