Resumo(s)
The organization of children’s secure base behaviour was studied in twoparent
Portuguese families, with 44 father–child and mother–child dyads,
children’s age was on average 31.91 months. An analysis of Attachment
Q-sort (AQS; Waters, 1995) data revealed no significant differences in
security scores for mothers and fathers. Both parents independently
responded to a questionnaire about their participation in child-related
activities, relative to their spouse’s participation in these activities. A
traditional division in the Care/Organization tasks and a shared participation
in the Play/Leisure activities emerged. Fathers with higher scores for both
types of activities tended to have children with higher security scores.
Fathers’ participation in Play/Leisure activities was associated with children’s
AQS scores with their mothers. In this sample father’s participation is positively associated with the quality of secure base relationships within the
family context.
