Abstract

The purpose of this study was to identify guidance strengths and learning needs of fathers of adolescents. Perceptions of two generations were used to determine how well fathers perform as parents and realms of knowledge they have yet to acquire. The Parent Success Indicator, a 60-item Likert-type instrument, was administered to 126 Caucasian fathers and 185 adolescents. Significant differences obtained between generations for the total inventory, some scales, and many items. The amount of time spent together had the greatest influence on how both generations evaluated father success. Findings are discussed in terms of developing a curriculum to enhance the success of fathers.
