目的：本研究探讨了母亲遭受暴力的经历是否是体罚的一个危险因素。方法：数据来自2000年秘鲁全国代表性人口统计和家庭健康调查。参与者为 12,601 名已婚女性，她们与 0-17 岁的亲生子女住在一起，并负责管教孩子。使用多项 Logit 模型来确定不使用体罚、仅打耳光/打屁股、仅殴打以及同时打耳光/打屁股和殴打来管教儿童的概率。 结果：研究发现，童年体罚史、更多种类的亲密伴侣情感暴力以及亲密伴侣身体暴力的经历显着增加了母亲对孩子使用体罚的概率，即使在控制了混杂因素后也是如此。与使用非身体形式的惩罚相比，母亲遭受当前伴侣以外的其他人身体暴力的历史也是殴打儿童的一个重要因素。结论：如果母亲在童年时遭受过父母身体暴力、当前婚姻中的亲密伴侣暴力以及当前伴侣以外的其他人的身体暴力，则母亲使用体罚的风险大大增加。实践影响：需要加强公众教育，了解亲密伴侣情感和身体暴力受害对母亲育儿策略的负面影响。有必要将亲密伴侣暴力纳入儿童福利方案，并制定针对孕产妇暴力受害和虐待儿童的有效筛查机制。 (C) 2010 Elsevier Ltd. 保留所有权利。
Objectives: This study examined whether mothers' experience of violence was a risk factor for physical punishment.Methods: Data were derived from the nationally representative 2000 Peru Demographic and Family Health Survey. Participants were 12,601 currently married women who were living with biological children aged 0-17 years and were responsible for disciplining the children. A multinomial logit model was used to determine the probabilities of using no physical punishment, slapping/spanking only, beating only, and both slapping/spanking and beating to discipline children.Results: The study found that childhood history of physical punishment, a greater variety of intimate partner emotional violence and experience of intimate partner physical violence increased significantly a mother's probability of using physical punishment with her children, even after controlling for confounding factors. A mother's history of physical violence victimization by someone other than the current partner was also a significant factor for beating children as opposed to using non-physical forms of punishment.Conclusions: Mothers were at substantially increased risk of using physical punishment if they were victims of parental physical violence in childhood, intimate partner violence in the current union, and physical violence by someone other than the current partner.Practice implications: Increased public education is needed of the negative consequences of intimate partner emotional and physical violence victimization for mothers' childrearing strategies. There is a need to integrate intimate partner violence into child welfare programs and develop effective screening mechanisms for maternal violence victimization and child maltreatment.
