对来自中国、印度、意大利、肯尼亚、菲律宾和泰国的336对母子(儿童年龄从6岁到17岁;母亲年龄从20岁到59岁)进行了访谈,以检验体罚的规范性是否会调节母亲使用体罚与儿童适应之间的联系。多水平回归分析显示,在感知规范程度较高的条件下,体罚与儿童不良结局的相关性较弱,但无论感知规范程度如何,体罚也与更多的不良结局相关。在体罚使用最少的国家,母亲使用体罚与孩子的行为问题之间的联系最强,但在所有国家,体罚使用越多,孩子的攻击性和焦虑感就越强。
Interviews were conducted with 336 mother-child dyads (children's ages ranged from 6 to 17 years; mothers' ages ranged from 20 to 59 years) in China, India, Italy, Kenya, the Philippines, and Thailand to examine whether normativeness of physical discipline moderates the link between mothers' use of physical discipline and children's adjustment. Multilevel regression analyses revealed that physical discipline was less strongly associated with adverse child outcomes in conditions of greater perceived normativeness, but physical discipline was also associated with more adverse outcomes regardless of its perceived normativeness. Countries with the lowest use of physical discipline showed the strongest association between mothers' use and children's behavior problems, but in all countries higher use of physical discipline was associated with more aggression and anxiety.
