Children's Perceptions of Corporal Punishment, Caretaker Acceptance, and Psychological Adjustment in a Poor, Biracial Southern Community.
Rohner, Ronald P.; And Others
Journal of Marriage and the Family, v58 n4 p842-52 Nov 1996
Explores interrelationships among physical punishment, perceived caretaker acceptance-rejection, and youths' psychological adjustment. Administered self-report questionnaires to 281 school children in grades 3 through 12. Results suggest that physical punishment is associated with children's psychological maladjustment only if youths perceive punishment as a form of caretaker rejection. (RJM)
