This article investigates father's role in child and adolescent psychopathology. The role of mother has been studied extensively, but the father's role in child psychopathology has been studied much less and is limited to what has been done in the past few decades. This article reviews some of the studies regarding father's role in child and adolescent psychopathology, namely attention-deficit / hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), conduct disorder, delinquency, substance abuse, depression, suicidal behavior, anxiety disorders, schizophernia, autism and eating disorders. Most of these studies emphasize the role of father in child and adolescent psychopathology.
