Ethnic Differences in the Effects of Five Disciplinary Techniques on Subsequent Externalizing Behavior Problems Marriage and Family Review 59,8 (30 Nov 2023).

Keyword(s): Behavioral Problems; Child Development; Children; Children, Behavioral Development; Disciplinary Techniques; Discipline; Ethnic Differences; Grounding; Parenthood; Parenting Skills/Styles; Parents, Behavior; Privilege Removal; Spanking To identify disciplinary alternatives to replace spanking, this study investigated ethnic differences in the associations of five disciplinary techniques with subsequent externalizing behavior problems in a national sample of 7- to 11-year-olds with ANCOVAs and difference-score analyses. Most techniques led to significant reductions in externalizing problems for African Americans or Hispanics, but only after overcoming known biases in ANCOVA and not for other European Americans. Privilege removal had the most significantly effective results, followed by grounding. Sending children to their room and spanking significantly reduced externalizing problems only in one or two analyses for African Americans, whereas removing children’s allowance was significantly effective in one overall analysis. Parenting research needs to distinguish between more vs. less effective use of all disciplinary techniques across multiple situational and cultural contexts. |
