- Abstract
In a series of meta‐analyses, paternal sensitivity was associated with children's (age range: 7 months–9 years) overall cognitive functioning (N = 3,193; k = 23; r =.19), including language skills (k = 9; r =.21), cognitive ability (k = 9; r =.18), and executive function (k = 8; r =.19). Paternal sensitivity was not associated with children's overall socioemotional functioning (N = 2,924; k = 24; r = −.03) or internalizing problems, but it was associated with children's emotion regulation (k = 7; r =.22) and externalizing problems (k = 19; r = −.08). In the broad cognitive functioning, executive function, broad socioemotional functioning, and externalizing problems meta‐analyses, child age was a significant moderator.
