Fathers as superheroes? Kim Bräuer presents research project at Kiel UAS

On 11/22/21, Kim Bräuer gave a presentation on "Insights into an ongoing mixed-method project on the diversity of fatherhood" at the Research Workshop at Kiel UAS. In it, she presented the research design and initial results and conclusions from the ongoing research project "You don't need to be Superheroes - Insights into the Diversity of Fathers' Lives".

 

Thank you!

We are delighted that more than 3,000 fathers took part in our survey, including 2,012 completed questionnaires!

We were only able to achieve all of this thanks to the active support of numerous fathers, including on Instagram and in other voluntary and full-time fathers' networks. We are a bit proud and very grateful for this more than good starting position, with which we can now start the evaluation!

We will continue to bring you along to the next research steps that are now waiting for us. In the near future it will probably be a bit quieter. Some of us are writing their bachelor theses on the project, others will turn to the statistical evaluation. Hopefully we will be able to provide you with the first results of the survey very soon. Stay tuned!
