Kesner  \nGeorgia State University  \nVera Stenhouse, Ph.D.  \nAbstract: In the United States, not only are parents permitted to utilize  \ncorporal punishment in disciplining their children, but 19 states still  \npermit the use of corporal punishment in schools. Teachers are  \nlegally bound to report suspected maltreatment, yet their school may  \nengage in a discipline practice which they may consider abuse. This  \npotential conflict depends on the teacher’s definition of “acceptable”  \nphysical discipline and abuse. Thus, teachers’ attitudes teachers  \ntowards corporal punishment and child maltreatment are critical.  \nPreservice teachers were surveyed about their attitudes towards  \ncorporal punishment, knowledge of child maltreatment and mandated  \nreporting, personal experiences with corporal punishment and asked  \nto rate several hypothetical parent-child discipline scenarios.  \nPreliminary analyses indicate that despite a higher endorsement of  \nand more personal experience with corporal punishment, African  \nAmerican participants did not differ from their Anglo counterparts in  \ntheir ratings of parental discipline scenarios. These and other findings  \nwill be discussed.  \nIntroduction  \nDespite condemnation from numerous national and international child development experts, corporal punishment is still a fact of life for children living in the U.S. The majority of children in the U.S. will experience physical punishment at the hands of their parents by adolescence (Gershoff, 2010). This phenomenon is not unique [to the U.S. as](to the U.S. as) the use of corporal punishment is an international issue. For example, Australian law permits parents to use“reasonable” corporal punishment in disciplining their children and only four of the seven territories have explicitly prohibited corporal punishment (Australia Institute of Family Studies, 2017) .  \nResearch in the U.S. showing a decline in favorable attitudes towards corporal punishment indicates changing attitudes, yet it is unclear whether changes in attitudes equals a change in practice (Taillieu, et al, 2014) . It is possible that the significant decline in substantiated cases of child maltreatment (Finklehor & Jones, 2006) is also evidence of a decline in the incidence of physical discipline. Many contend that there is a link between physical discipline and physical abuse; positing them as opposite ends ofa continuum of physical punishment  \nVol 43, 11, November 2018 71  \nAustralian Journal of Teacher Education  \n(Wallat, 2017; Rodriguez, & Sutherland 1999) . Given that the line between physical discipline and abuse are somewhat subjective, the decline in substantiated cases does not necessarily mean a decline in incidence of corporal punishment. Rather it may mean that the threshold of acceptable physical discipline has changed.  \nThere is a well-documented relationship between parental use of corporal punishment and higher rates of externalizing behavior problems in children (Alampay et al, 2017; Gershoff, 2002; Gershoff & Grogan-Kaylor, 2016; Straus, 2001), which includes aggressive and antisocial behaviors (Gershoff, et al, 2012) . This effect has been found to be more pronounced when the parent inflicting the punishment has a history of violence and/or abuse (Cicchetti, et al, 1992) . Although the association is strong, the causal mechanism is still the subject of debate. Whether it is the act of physical punishment or the sometimes-concomitant lack of parental warmth, low parental involvement or outright rejection which leads to the externalizi","cbCailgqoRmZqtSw","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCailgqoRmZqtSw","pdf",258415,14,"English","# Abstract\n# Introduction\n## Corporal punishment in national and international contexts\n## Attitudes versus real practice\n## Physical discipline, abuse, and behavior outcomes\n## Critiques: sampling and generalizability\n## Cultural acceptance and racial differences\n## Schools and mandated reporting context","[{\"question\":\"What conflict does the paper focus on regarding corporal punishment and reporting duties?\",\"answer\":\"Teachers are legally required to report suspected maltreatment, even though school discipline practices may involve physical punishment they consider acceptable.
