“…Although the father's attachment to his infant is the key to sensitive and responsive care that promotes secure attachment in childhood, the short-term intervention provided in this study was not confirmed to have an effect on this variable. In addition, although developmental knowledge about infants according to age affects infant care and ultimately impacts attachment and interaction, it was difficult to identify external factors in this study due to factors such as poor control of external factors and a small number of subjects [ 33 ].…”

Purpose: This study examined the effects of an educational program for fathers on improving father-infant interactions, child-rearing knowledge, and attachment.Methods: In this quasi-experimental study, the participants were recruited by convenience sampling among fathers with infants (2-6 months of age) residing in three districts of Seoul. Fifteen participants in the experimental group and 17 participants in the control group completed the follow-up investigation. A 5-week online and offline intervention program with five sessions was provided to the experimental group. The data were analyzed using generalized estimating equations (GEEs).Results: There was a significant difference in the change in father-infant interaction scores of the experimental group, especially in the caregiver aspect with a significance level of .100 in time and group-to-group interactions (B=6.46, p=.051, 95% confidence interval [CI]=-0.02-12.94). The changes between the groups and times were not statistically significant when it came to infant development knowledge and father-infant attachment.Conclusion: We conclude that hybrid online and offline education should be implemented as an effective method to improve fathers’ interactions with their children based on accurate knowledge about infant development.
