Principled Arguments in Support of Corporal Punishment

• In South Korea the use of corporal punishment is widely supported
• Many physician and pediatricians support corporal punishment.

Principled Arguments Against Corporal Punishment
• Brenner (1998) found evidence to show that corporal punishment is not good healthy for children
• Others like Romeo (1996) focus on the emotional damage a child will have because of corporal punishment.
• Others such as Larzelere (1996) believe that the effects of physical and non-physical punishment “probably depend on when and how parents implement it, its role in their overall approach to parental discipline, and the overall parent-child relationship (Andero 2002).

Research in Support of Corporal Punishment of Children
•There is little research evidence that demonstrates the effectiveness of corporal punishment of children, however a number of studies have suggested that there are a few advantages of corporal punishment.
Vockell (1991) indicates three potential advantages:
1.It is perceived by the recipient as unpleasant.2.It can be administered quickly and be over with quickly. 3.It is a very clear, specific, and obvious consequence.
•A meta-analysis (Gershoff, 2002) study indicated that corporal punishment has only one desirable effect. Gershoff (2002) revealed that corporal punishment is associated with increased immediate compliance.

Research Against Corporal Punishment of Children
• There is a huge body of empirical research that does not support the use of corporal punishment (CP) of children.
Corporal punishment of children is associated with: 1. Increased aggression 2. Increased anti-social behaviours3. Decreased quality of the parent-child relationship4. Decreased mental health outcomes5. Increased adult abusive behaviour6. CP decreases internalization of moral rules

Strengths and Weaknesses of the Research
Strengths Weaknesses

Specific Proposition- Against
According to research findings, our group is against corporal punishment in the classroom and in the home
![Page 10: Final psychpowerpoint (1)](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062307/55818ad4d8b42a132d8b524d/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Reasoning
◦ There is very little evidence that demonstrates that CP benefits children
◦ The majority of research shows there is a negative impact of CP:
Humiliation for student Possibility of increased aggression Long term psychological effects
![Page 11: Final psychpowerpoint (1)](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062307/55818ad4d8b42a132d8b524d/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Final Recommendations In the School
Empirical research shows Corporal Punishment has no place in the school environment
In school’s cp has shown to instigate:
Long Term psychological and physical damage.
Humiliation.
Increased aggression and defiance towards learning (Dupper & Montgomery, 2008)
![Page 12: Final psychpowerpoint (1)](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062307/55818ad4d8b42a132d8b524d/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
In the Home
Despite its practice by 50-65% of parents (Tharps, 2003), corporal punishment slowly needs to outlawed in the home.
The following steps need to be taken in order to curb the practice of cp:
1. Recognition that CP is a violation of Internal Human Rights Law (Gershoff & Bitensky, 2007)
2. Government programs to raise awareness of the negative outcomes
3. Raised awareness of a clear, legal definition of what CP means
4. Over time assessment of the practice and long term movement to ban practice
