This Brief reviews the past, present, and future use of school corporal punishment in the United States, a practice that remains legal in 19 states as it is constitutionally permitted according to the U.S. Supreme Court. As a result of school corporal punishment, nearly 200,000 children are paddled in schools each year. Most Americans are unaware of this fact or the physical injuries sustained by countless school children who are hit with objects by school personnel in the name of discipline. Therefore, Corporal Punishment in U.S. Public Schools begins by summarizing the legal basis for school corporal punishment and trends in Americans’ attitudes about it. It then presents trends in the use of school corporal punishment in the United States over time to establish its past and current prevalence. It then discusses what is known about the effects of school corporal punishment on children, though with so little research on this topic, much of the relevant literature is focused on parents’ use of corporal punishment with their children. It also provides results from a policy analysis that examines the effect of state-level school corporal punishment bans on trends in juvenile crime. It concludes by discussing potential legal, policy, and advocacy avenues for abolition of school corporal punishment at the state and federal levels as well as summarizing how school corporal punishment is being used and what its potential implications are for thousands of individual students and for the society at large. As school corporal punishment becomes more and more regulated at the state level, Corporal Punishment in U.S. Public Schools serves an essential guide for policymakers and advocates across the country as well as for researchers, scientist-practitioners, and graduate students.

Download The Perceptions of Educators about Corporal Punishment in Rural School Districts in Tennessee Book in PDF, ePub and Kindle
The purpose of the study was to examine the perceptions of teachers, based on their demographics, regarding the use of corporal punishment in two rural Tennessee school districts. The research was designed to determine the differences between the teachers' beliefs of the use of corporal punishment based on years of teaching experience, use of corporal punishment, punishment received as a child, terminal degree, gender, age, teaching level, and two school systems' board policies. These variables were compared to the teachers' religious, cultural, legal, and discipline effectiveness beliefs. Two counties, DeKalb and Roane, were selected due to their similar demographics. The sample group consisted of 353 participants who completed Kiernan's Corporal Punishment Scale Survey. Eight hypotheses were tested using a Multiple Linear Regression and Multiple Analyses of Variance (MANOVAs). Five of the eight hypotheses were found to be statistically significant at the .01 level of significance. There were no significant differences in teachers' religious perceptions of corporal punishment based on the variables tested. A significant difference was found in teachers' cultural perceptions of corporal punishment based on the teaching level. Significant differences were found on the legal construct based on the teachers' use of corporal punishment, punishment received as a child, gender, teaching level, and school system board policies. There were significant differences in teachers' discipline effectiveness perceptions of corporal punishment based on teachers' use of corporal punishment and punishment received as a child. The legal construct was the area that was most affected by the teachers' demographic variables. Recommendations concluded from this study include the education of teachers in alternative measures other than corporal punishment and the re-evaluation of state laws and school board policies. Research recommendations include a correlational study between discipline records and infractions compared to corporal punishment and a comparison of the attitudes of teachers' in the Southern states with other regions of the United States.

Download Corporal Punishment of Children in Theoretical Perspective Book in PDF, ePub and Kindle
divDespite being commonplace in American households a generation ago, corporal punishment of children has been subjected to criticism and shifting attitudes in recent years. Many school districts have banned it, and many child advocates recommend that parents no longer spank or strike their children. In this book, social theorist Michael Donnelly and family violence expert Murray A. Straus tap the expertise of social science scholars and researchers who address issues of corporal punishment, a subject that is now characterized as a key issue in child welfare. The contributors discuss corporal punishment, its use, causes, and consequences, drawing on a wide array of comparative, psychological, and sociological theories. Together, they clarify the analytical issues and lay a strong foundation for future research and interdisciplinary collaboration. /DIV
