Child health care nurses' perceptions of fathers' participation in parental support groups : A cross-sectional study (English)
Abstract [sv]

SAMMANFATTNING

Bakgrund: Det finns omfattande vetenskaplig grund för att pappors delaktighet i deras barns liv främjar hälsa och gynnar en positiv utveckling hos barnen. Studier har även visat att stöd från hälso- och sjukvården främjar pappors delaktighet. Inom barnhälsovården erbjuds bland annat föräldrastöd i grupp och tanken är att män och kvinnor ska vilja medverka i lika stor utsträckning. Pappor deltar dock i mycket lägre grad än mammor. En av utmaningarna för barnhälsovården är därför att finna former för föräldrastöd i grupp som tilltalar alla föräldrar. Syfte: Syftet med studien var att beskriva utformningen av föräldrastöd i grupp samt BVC-sjuksköterskornas uppfattningar kring utformningen och pappors deltagande. Metod: Studien genomfördes som en tvärsnittsstudie med ett strukturerat frågeformulär i webbformat som datainsamlingsmetod. Materialet analyserades med icke-parametrisk statistik. Resultat: Resultatet visade att tidpunkten som föräldrastöd i grupp erbjuds på tycks vara av betydelse för pappors deltagande, både vad det gäller tid på dygnet och barnets ålder. Analysen visade på skillnader i BVC-sjuksköterskornas uppfattningar kring pappadeltagandet utifrån vilken typ av vårdcentral de arbetade på samt om de hade fortbildning i genusfrågor. Slutsats: Sociodemografiska faktorer kan ha betydelse för BVC-sjuksköterskornas uppfattningar kring pappors deltagande i föräldrastöd i grupp, men detta behöver undersökas ytterligare.

ABSTRACT

Background: There is extensive scientific evidence that fathers' involvement in their children's lives promotes health and positive development in children. Studies have also shown that support from health professionals promote fathers' involvement. Group parental support is offered within the Child health care (CHC) service with the goal that mothers and fathers participate equally. Fathers, however, participate to a much lower extent than mothers. One of the challenges the CHC faces is to design parental support groups that will appeal to all parents. Aim: The aims of this study were to investigate the structure of parental support groups and the CHC nurses' perceptions of the structure and father participation. Method: The study was conducted as a cross-sectional study using a structured questionnaire in web format as data collection method. Data were analyzed with non-parametric statistics. Results: The results found that the time at which parental support groups are offered seems to be crucial for father participation, both with regard to time of the day and age of the child. The analysis showed that there were differences in the CHC nurses' perceptions of father participation based on the type of health center they were working in, and whether or not they had training in gender issues. Conclusion: Socio-demographic factors may be of importance for CHC nurses' perceptions of father participation, but this needs to be investigated further.
