The knowledge-base, synthesis by this review, will inform the development of a framework for paternal involvement that is applicable across majority family contexts. This framework has the potential to guide the formulation of contextually appropriate policies aimed at strengthening father's involvement and promoting child development and mental health, while identifying key gaps to inform future research.
