Questionnaires were administered to 101 African American males in the mid-Atlantic region of the United States. Multiple regression analyses found predictive relationships between attitudes and behaviors that influence African American fathers&#8217; decisions to be involved and the types of involvement related to the child&#8217;s schooling. Results revealed significant findings for (a) Invitations from Others and home-school communication, (b) Fathers&#8217; Life Context and school-based parent involvement, and (c) Fathers&#8217; Life Context and Invitations from Others and the overall parent involvement score. Implications for the field of family involvement are discussed.<\/p>\n<p>Full article can be found here:<\/p>\n<p>http:\/\/www.jstor.org\/stable\/10.7709\/jnegroeducation.81.2.0162<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Abel, Y.
