explained by fathers' testosterone (T) levels. We examined the links between fathers'(n= 32) …

In human males, testosterone (T) decreases in the period following the birth of offspring. This
decline has been widely interpreted as a facultative neuroendocrine response that facilitates …

Recent research points to decreasing testosterone (T) levels as well as decreasing

variation in fathers' involvement and fathering behaviors, and men's testosterone (T) has …

Previous studies on the relation between testosterone (T) levels and parenting have found
ample evidence for the challenge hypothesis, demonstrating that high T levels inhibit …
