Intervenção parental, engajamento, envolvimento, paisResumo
Dada a importância da parentalidade no desenvolvimento infantil, as evidências destacam a eficácia das intervenções de orientação parental na promoção de interações familiares saudáveis e na redução de problemas comportamentais em crianças. Apesar dos benefícios, um desafio significativo persiste na garantia do envolvimento paterno nesses programas. Seguindo as diretrizes PRISMA, o presente estudo revisou sistematicamente 11 estudos empíricos que investigaram o envolvimento e a participação paterna em programas de intervenção parental, com foco nos facilitadores e nas barreiras à adesão. Os resultados indicaram que a participação dos pais em programas parentais estava positivamente associada ao nível educacional, à renda familiar e aos problemas emocionais das crianças. Os estudos também enfatizam a flexibilidade na implementação dos programas, intervenções direcionadas aos pais e a importância do reconhecimento do papel paterno no cuidado infantil. Apoio social, sensibilidade cultural e abordagens personalizadas são destacados como aspectos-chave para aumentar a participação. Barreiras como conflitos laborais, estigmas sociais e normas de gênero permanecem significativas, exigindo soluções culturalmente adaptadas. Esses achados fornecem uma visão abrangente e discutem as melhores práticas para promover maior engajamento paterno, além das barreiras que podem dificultar a participação dos pais em programas de parentalidade.
