A Review of Non-abusive Corporal Punishment Research (Paperback)

Corporal punishment remains a controversial issue that affects the vast majority of the population in some form or another. More research is needed on non-abusive corporal punishment, as this disciplinary practice is used prevalently in American society. This book discusses the research on the outcomes of non-abusive corporal punishment, as well as the cultural and legislative factors in the decision to use corporal punishment. The implications of the corporal punishment bans in different countries around the world are also examined. Professionals working with children can benefit from the content of this book, as it provides a step into learning about how corporal punishment truly affects children and adolescents. Additionally, professionals can gain insight into historical, legislative, and cultural aspects that influence parents to use corporal punishment.
