Tiivistelmä
This study was part of the Finnish Family Competence Study, an extensive project investigating the work of the Finnish Maternity Health Care and Well Baby Clinic system, and the knowledge and lifestyles of mothers and fathers expecting their first baby. This study deals with information from questionnaires given to each of the fathers 3 months before the baby was born, when the baby was born, and when the baby was 3-years old. Educational level, age, and occupation were used as demographic variables. Questions were asked about the father's parents' demographic data, including place of residence. Special attention was given to the effects of tradition, as well as relatives and friends, on the transition to fatherhood. Transition to fatherhood is a multidimensional process, and the results of studies on it are highly dependent on indicators used. A high level of knowledge and skills does not guarantee a balanced transition to fatherhood.
