.... Straus and his colleagues (1997) recognized that children might
differ in their initial temperament, and that parents might make
greater use of corporal punishment with children who exhibited higher
levels of antisocial behavior. Thus, these authors used ordinary least
squares (OLS) regression and ANOVA models to estimate the effect of
corporal punishment on children's antisocial behavior while controlling
for children's prior level of antisocial behavior. Even in the presence
of the statistical controls afforded by these models, they found that
the parental use of corporal punishment increased children's antisocial
behavior.
Straus and colleagues' (1997) finding that corporal punishment has
detrimental effects on children has been echoed by other researchers,
many of whom have also used the NLSY. Eamon and Zuehl (2001) and Eamon
(2001) analyzed samples of four- to nine-year-olds from the 1992 and
1994 waves of the NLSY. In both cases, the authors found that physical
punishment had adverse effects on children's levels of socioemotional
problems. McLeod and Shanahan (1993) used data from the 1986 NLSY and
McLeod and Nonnemaker (2000) used data from the 1992 NLSY; they found
that the mother's use of physical punishment tended to increase
children's socioemotional problems.
Simons and colleagues (1994) found that "corporal punishment was
negatively related to quality of parental involvement" (p. 600). This
research points to the importance of considering other indicators of
parenting in any analysis of corporal punishment. Straus and colleagues
(1997) investigated the relationship of the cognitive stimulation that
parents provide their children with children's antisocial behavior and
found that this relationship was not statistically significant. Bradley
and colleagues (2001) investigated the relationship of learning
stimulation with an overall behavior problems score. These authors
found that increases in learning stimulation were associated with
decreases in children's behavior problems. ...
