Students' Knowledge of Child Health and Development: Effects on Approaches to Discipline.
Showers, Jacy; Johnson, Charles Felzen
Journal of School Health, v54 n3 p122-25 Mar 1984

Results indicated that college students know more about child development than do high school seniors. College women are more knowledgeable than men. Students with poor knowledge tend to choose harsher methods of discipline. (DF)
