Fathers' Involvement in Infant Care and Infants' Development
30. mai 2026 oppdatert av: Rabia ZORLULAR, Nigde Omer Halisdemir University
Fathers' Involvement in Infant Care and Infants' Sensory Processing
In the early stages of life, newborns are dependent on caregivers to meet their basic needs for survival, feeding, and care.
Generally, mothers assume primary responsibility for meeting their infants' basic needs and providing care, while fathers take on a supporting role.
Both mothers and fathers actively contribute to the baby's healthy emotional development.
This study, planned with fathers of 4-6 month old infants, addresses the lack of quantitative evidence regarding the relationship between fathers' involvement in infant care and infants' sensory processing.

Detaljert beskrivelse
Research shows that fathers' active participation in infant care positively impacts children's psychological, cognitive, social, and behavioral development.
Mothers must encourage shared care between fathers and infants from the very beginning by providing opportunities for fathers to actively participate.
Previous studies evaluating fathers' active involvement and infant development have shown that fathers report feeling a strong bond with their infants from birth, and infants show higher levels of motor, language, and personal/social development.
However, no studies have been found that examine the relationship between infant sensory processing skills and the father's active involvement in infant care.
This study, planned with fathers of 4-6-month-old infants, addresses the lack of quantitative evidence regarding the relationship between fathers' involvement in infant care and infants' sensory processing.
Therefore, this study aims to determine the relationship between fathers' involvement in infant care and infants' sensory processing.

The Infant Sensory Profile-2 is a parent-administered questionnaire that documents the sensory processing patterns of infants from birth to 6 months.
In this study, the questionnaire will be completed by mothers.
It consists of 25 items assessing different aspects of sensory processing and takes 5-10 minutes to complete.
Each item is scored between one and five.
The scoring is as follows: Almost Always = 5, Frequently = 4, Sometimes = 3, Rarely = 2, Almost Never = 1, with a parameter of "Not Applicable = 0".
The Fathers' Involvement in Infant Care Questionnaire, developed by Kuruçırak and Kulakaç, is a five-point Likert-type instrument designed to assess the level of fathers' involvement in infant care.
Responses range from 1 (Never) to 5 (Always); higher scores indicate greater involvement in caregiving activities.

The Fathers' Involvement in Infant Care Questionnaire, developed by Kuruçırak and Kulakaç, is a five-point Likert-type instrument designed to assess the level of fathers' involvement in infant care.
Responses range from 1 (Never) to 5 (Always); higher scores indicate greater involvement in caregiving activities.
The questionnaire consists of three subscales: (1) Physical Care (13 items), (2) Personal Development and Health (8 items), and (3) Dedicating Time to Play Activities (7 items).
In our study, it will be completed by fathers.

The scoring is as follows: Almost Always = 5, Frequently = 4, Sometimes = 3, Rarely = 2, Almost Never = 1, with a parameter of "Not Applicable = 0".
There are 6 options.
The sum of individual scores gives the raw score.
The total raw score is classified as: "typical sensory processing" (41-61) and "atypical sensory processing" (0-40 or 62-125).
