Abstract
This study investigated the relationships between the child-rearing involvement of fathers and their children`s social-emotional competence. The subjects were 257 kindergarten children and their fathers. Data on the children`s social and emotional competence were provided by their mothers, kindergarten teachers and five trained observers. The observers tested the social-emotional problem solving ability of the children. The data were analyzed by frequency, percentage, mean, t-test, one-way ANOVA, Scheffe post test, and Pearson`s correlations. Results showed child rearing involvement differences between fathers based on (1) age and educational level of fathers, and (2) sex of child. Father`s child-rearing involvement and child`s social-emotional competence were correlated, especially in children whose fathers participated positively in child-rearing and had effective cognitive strategies for solving social and emotional problems.
