In Charge but Not in Control: The Management of Teaching Relationships by Adults with Low Perceived Power.
Bugental, Daphne Blunt; Lewis, Jeffrey C.; Lin, Eta; Lyon, Judith; Kopeikin, Hal
Developmental Psychology, v35 n6 p1367-78 Nov 1999
Explored use of punitive force by adults with low perceived power in teaching interactions. Found that those women with low perceived power were more likely than the others to use high levels of punitive force and show elevated levels of autonomic arousal when given ambiguous control, and more likely to attribute intentionality to children whose behavior was ambiguous.
