Abstract
Parent engagement is a compelling research concept in neonatal care that examines the synchronous factors that influence preterm infant health. This research assesses levels of parent engagement (high vs low engagement) using the PREEMI assessment tool and explores possible gender differences by comparing the engagement results between mothers and fathers.
