早年的体罚与反社会行为和暴力有关，但人们对其在低收入国家的社会和文化背景知之甚少。本文分析了如何在坎帕拉，乌干达，12名被剥夺妇女认为体罚，借鉴重复半结构化访谈。所有人都认为这有时是必要的，主要有三个原因。首先，这是一项重要的战略，以确保良好的行为，并保持他们和他们的孩子的体面，这对自尊至关重要，因为严重贫困。其次，它是建立家庭惯例和管理稀缺资源的一种手段。第三，这是保护儿童免受健康风险的一种方式。然而，所有的母亲都认为体罚可能是过度的，大多数人说这可能会适得其反，使孩子“不听话”。他们的严厉养育和情感支持程度似乎有相当大的差异。这些研究结果可以为文化上适当的干预措施提供信息，以减少暴力侵害儿童行为。
Corporal punishment in the early years is associated with anti-social behaviour and violence, but little is known about its social and cultural context in low income countries. This paper analyses how 12 deprived women in Kampala, Uganda, perceived corporal punishment, drawing on repeated semi-structured interviews. All thought it was sometimes necessary, for three main reasons. First, it was an important strategy to ensure good behaviour and maintain their and their child’s, respectability, crucial to self-respect given severe poverty. Second, it was a means of establishing household routines and managing scarce resources. Third, it was a way to protect children from health risks. However, all mothers thought corporal punishment could be excessive, and most said it can be counter-productive, making children ‘stubborn’. There appeared to be considerable variation in their degree of harsh parenting and emotional support. These findings could inform culturally appropriate interventions to reduce violence against children.
