OBJECTIVES
This study describes mothers who report spanking their infants in the first 13 months of life.
METHODS
Two hundred forty-six (246) mothers were interviewed in the Mother-Baby Unit of a large university-affiliated hospital in a large southeastern city of the United States. Ninety-three percent (93%) of those mothers were reinterviewed in their homes when infants were 6-13 months of age.
RESULTS
Younger mothers, those who endorsed fewer alternatives to corporal punishment, and those who experienced their infants as "difficult" were significantly more likely to spank their infants.
CONCLUSIONS
The findings suggest the importance of more anticipatory guidance from physicians, nurses, social workers, and other professionals about discipline in the first few months of life, particularly given the risks associated with spanking infants and popular support for corporal punishment.
目的
本研究描述了那些报告在婴儿出生后13个月内对其进行体罚的母亲。
方法
在美国东南部一个大城市的一家大型大学附属医院的母婴病房，对246名母亲进行了访谈。其中93%的母亲在婴儿6至13个月大时，又在其家中接受了再次访谈。
结果
年轻母亲、那些认可体罚替代方式较少的母亲以及那些认为自己的婴儿“难带”的母亲，更有可能对婴儿进行体罚。
结论
研究结果表明，医生、护士、社会工作者和其他专业人员在婴儿出生后的头几个月提供更多关于管教的预期性指导非常重要，特别是考虑到体罚婴儿存在的风险以及社会对体罚的普遍支持。
