“…Seltzer (2000) finds that nonresident fathers who maintain closer contact with their children are more likely to pay child support, perhaps because they can observe more directly how that money is supporting the child's welfare, which could contribute to better outcomes since child support is a significant positive correlate of children's cognitive development (Argys et al, 1998). Moreover, nonresident fathers tend to bundle their involvement, such that those who see their children frequently also are more likely to be engaged with them, assume parenting responsibility, and provide in-kind support compared to those who see their children infrequently (Coley & Chase-Lansdale, 1999;Ryan, Kalil, & Ziol-Guest, 2008;Kalil, Ziol-Guest, & Coley, 2005;Rangarajan & Gleason, 1998;Sobolewski & King, 2005).…”
