Abstract：
There are few studies on the parenting of fathers with autism traits. To investigate this issue, we examined the type of parenting performed by fathers with autism traits using data from a nationwide birth cohort study, the Japan Environment and Children\'s Study. Paternal parenting was evaluated by mothers or caregivers when the child was 2 years old. Father\'s autism traits were measured using the Japanese version of the self-administered Autism Spectrum Quotient. Logistic regression analysis was performed to statistically analyze the data. Fathers with autism traits were significantly less likely to prepare meals for their child and helping them eat (adjusted OR (aOR): 1.11, 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.01-1.23), to helping the child change clothes (aOR: 1.17, 95% CI: 1.04-1.31). However, there were no associations between some parenting behaviors and autism traits (not changing diapers, not bathing with the child, and not playing with the child). Father\'s communication skill difficulties by autism traits associated with a lower tendency to perform all types of parenting. Interestingly, there were association between difficulties with social skills or attention-switching and more performing change diapers. These results indicate it is important to respect the child-rearing that fathers with autistic tendencies are able to do, while supporting them in child-rearing that they are significantly less able to do than fathers without autistic tendencies.
摘要：
关于自闭症特征父亲的育儿研究很少。为了调查这个问题，我们使用来自全国出生队列研究的数据，研究了具有自闭症特征的父亲的育儿类型，日本环境与儿童研究。孩子2岁时，母亲或照顾者对父亲的养育方式进行了评估。父亲的自闭症特征是使用日本版本的自我管理自闭症频谱商进行测量的。采用Logistic回归分析对数据进行统计学分析。具有自闭症特征的父亲为孩子准备饭菜和帮助他们吃饭的可能性显着降低（调整后的OR（aOR）：1.11，95％置信区间（CI）：1.01-1.23），帮助孩子换衣服（aOR：1.17，95%CI：1.04-1.31）。然而,一些育儿行为和自闭症特征之间没有关联(不是换尿布，不和孩子一起洗澡，而不是和孩子一起玩)。父亲的沟通技巧困难与自闭症特征相关的较低倾向于执行所有类型的育儿。有趣的是,社交技能或注意力转移的困难与更多的换尿布之间存在关联。这些结果表明，尊重有自闭症倾向的父亲能够做到的育儿方式很重要，同时支持他们抚养孩子，他们的能力明显低于没有自闭症倾向的父亲。
