Abstract

Children's emotional competence development is mainly influenced by their caretakers. The old days when mothers were the main caretakers of their children have passed. There have been more and more fathers taking care of their children personally. This study aims to explore the relationship between fathers’ parenting attitudes and their child’s emotional competence. A survey was conducted with the “Fathers’ Parenting Attitudes Scale” and the “Children’s Emotional Competence Scale”, with the subjects being the children from the preschools in Taiwan and their father selected using the snowball sampling method. The result shows that the relationships between fathers’ parenting attitudes and various aspects of children’s emotional competence are all not significant. It seems that the traditional Chinese concept of “fathers being stern and mothers being benevolent” still remains nowadays.
