The subjects of the study were 380 fathers of 3-5 year-old children living in Gyeonggi-do. The collected data were analyzed by frequency analysis, reliability analysis, correlation analysis, and stepwise multiple regression analysis using the SPSS 23.0 program. The main results of the study are as follows. First, the father’s parenting efficacy was found to have effects on coparenting. In terms of parenting efficacy, nurturance, play, discipline, and teaching are related to the support, solidarity and shared parenting elements of coparenting.
