Appraisals of Intervention: The Mother's versus the Culprit's Behavior as Determinants of Children's Evaluations of Discipline Techniques.
Siegal, Michael; Cowen, Jan
Child Development, v55 n5 p1760-66 Oct 1984
Twenty children in each of five groups (mean ages in years and months of 5-9, 8-9, 11-9, 14-7, and 17-8) were asked to evaluate the disciplinary techniques employed by mothers over a range of situations in which a culprit was described as having transgressed. Children's disciplinary preferences were examined, and ratings of different techniques were compared. (Author/RH)
