요약 : This was an exploratory study of 33 nonresidential fathers divorced for the first time with at least one child twelve years of age or younger. This project combined quantitative and qualitative methods. Participants responded to survey questions, completed a card sort, and shared experiences about their lives. The purpose of the research was to find out how nonresidential fathers maintained parenting role identities postdivorce. The statistical analyses of the seventeen variables of the proposed fatherhood model revealed that there was an association between levels of education, hours worked, perception of former spouses' communication styles and nonresidential fathers' levels of engagement. Nonresidential fathers ranked the role of teacher/mentor/role model as the most salient fathering role and half of the sample balanced two or more of the seven roles during the card sort. Nine themes surfaced from thematic analyses of the narrative data gathered from interviews with four engaged and four disengaged nonresidential fathers. The topics included: personal strengths, community resources, parental concerns, coparental relationships, development of fathering roles, fatherhood norms, concerns about the legal system, and reasons for participation. It is important for practitioners to recognize the pain suffered by nonresidential fathers following separation and the importance of helping them build connections. A gender-neutral approach is recommended to assist nonresidential fathers renegotiate relationships. Policy changes are needed to insure greater equity in divorce outcomes, protection of ties between nonresidential fathers and their children, promotion of further education to improve nonresidential fathers' employment options, creation of laws to establish child support accountability, and development of legislation that is aimed at helping families help themselves. Further study is needed to assess nonresidential fathers' personal strengths, to understand the nature of community resources utilized, and the cultural influences on level of engagement. Those investigations should also incorporate designs that include other family members.
