Those researchers should know better than to publish that. Children have no long-term memories of... everynametaken Send a noteboard - 05/01/2010 05:06:21 PM
such events until around three to three and a half years of age and even then their own accounts would be insufficient. That makes all their self-reporting of the frequency or quantity of "smacks" invalid. I am hoping that serious researchers everywhere will destroy this stupid report. It should never be published and shame on any journal who does.

BTW, I am not against corporal punishment and I don't take the Dr. Spock view of it just in case anyone is asking. I AM against poorly designed experiments and this is a very poorly designed one.
But wine was the great assassin of both tradition and propriety...

It's a pretty small study, but it's nice to see someone at least looking at the other side of things *NM* Brian - 05/01/2010 04:39:49 PM 209 Views

I don't know. I mean, yes it could be better designed LadyLorraine - 05/01/2010 05:17:02 PM 603 Views
Interview studies are suspect in general. jh - 05/01/2010 05:31:31 PM 505 Views
we can't really judge simply on what a newspaper reported. LadyLorraine - 05/01/2010 05:47:13 PM 483 Views
Better study: Floffe - 05/01/2010 06:58:04 PM 554 Views
yes because a parent wouldn't lie about how they hit their kid. LadyLorraine - 05/01/2010 07:02:10 PM 508 Views
and kids are completely honest all the time? jh - 05/01/2010 09:46:03 PM 492 Views
yes, they do. I don't disagree with you LadyLorraine - 05/01/2010 10:04:49 PM 479 Views
First, I am not outraged. Second, this study is pure junk because of what I said. everynametaken - 06/01/2010 01:16:04 AM 516 Views
Yes, asking the parents would be far more accurate. everynametaken - 06/01/2010 01:09:41 AM 461 Views

Nope, just applied common sense *NM* Floffe - 06/01/2010 03:32:00 PM 193 Views
Floffe, your version of common sense isn't common. *NM* Avendesora - 06/01/2010 03:41:43 PM 198 Views
That's true, yes. However, it's hard to find the study itself. Floffe - 05/01/2010 07:21:57 PM 514 Views
