The development of the Dads 101 curriculum was based on research showing that the majority of perpetrators in SBS cases are the victim's biological father. In 1994, the Child Abuse Prevention Center SBS Division in Ogden, Utah conducted a study to compile information about documented cases of shaken baby syndrome. The study found that 79% of the perpetrators in shaken baby syndrome cases are male, most of who are the biological father of the victim. Another research study conducted by the University of Colorado Health Sciences Center in 1995 found that 68.5% of SBS perpetrators are male. In 1998, the National Center also surveyed the Child Fatality Review Teams for cases of shaken baby syndrome throughout the United States and found that 70% of the perpetrators in fatal shaken baby syndrome cases are male. These statistics strongly suggest that SBS prevention and awareness efforts targeting males will be most effective, by helping them prepare for fatherhood and giving them the skills they need to care for infants.
