The Predictors of Parental Use of Corporal Punishment (2007, result): “Bearing these limitations in mind, our analysis is consistent with past research showing that, in comparison with White families, mothers in African American families were more likely to employ corporal punishment (Giles-Sims et al., 1995; McLoyd & Smith, 2002).”
A test of social learning and intergenerational transmission among batterers (2009, result): “These results were consistent with past research which suggested that the negative effects of corporal punishment on children could be moderated by the emotional context within which it occurs ( McCloyd & Smith, 2002 ).”
All in the Family? Family Environment Factors in Sibling Violence (2006, background): “Martin et al., 1987), and behavior problems in children ( McLoyd & Smith, 2002 ), although tentative evidence suggests this pattern may vary by race (Deater-Deckard, Dodge, & Bates, 1996).”
Perspectives on parent discipline and child outcomes (2017, background): “Accordingly, for example, the correlation between physical punishment and externalizing problems is greater when mothers are low in warmth than when they are high in warmth (McLoyd & Smith, 2002; Simons, Wu, Lin, Gordon, & Conger, 2000).”
Maternal Warmth Moderates the Link Between Physical Punishment and Child Externalizing Problems: A Parent - Offspring Behavior Genetic Analysis (2006, background): “This result is consistent with previous studies that used different measures and types of families (McLoyd & Smith, 2002; Simons et al., 2000).”
Understanding and Improving Classroom Emotional Climate and Behavior Management in the “Real World”: The Role of Head Start Teachers' Psychosocial Stressors (2010, background): “Poverty-related risk has been associated with mothers' higher expression of negative emotions in a number of correlational studies (eg, McLoyd & Smith, 2002 ).”
Parenting Style as a Moderator of Associations Between Maternal Disciplinary Strategies and Child Well-Being (2008, background): “McLoyd and Smith (2002) found that parental use of physical discipline predicted increases in child problem behavior over time only when it occurred in the context of low levels of emotional support. Schneider, Cavell, and Hughes (2003) found that the use of ineffective discipline was more strongly ”
Challenges to the Study of African American Parenting: Conceptualization, Sampling, Research Approaches, Measurement, and Design (2008, background): “Many such studies indicate that African American parents (on average) tend to score lower than European American and Latin American parents on sensitivity and higher on behaviors associated with control (eg, Berlin, Brady-Smith & Brooks-Gunn, 2002 ; Berlin, Brooks-Gunn, Spiker, & Zaslow, 1995 ; B”
Advances in Families and Health Research in the 21st Century (2010, background): “Parental emotional support moderated the relationship between physical punishment and child behavioral problems; spanking predicted behavioral problems in the context of low maternal support (McLoyd & Smith, 2002) only.”
Love, discipline and elementary school achievement: The role of family emotional climate (2010, background): “…and social acceptance may mediate its negative effects; thus, physical punishment should be studied in the context of other parenting factors, such as maternal warmth, and should be distinguished from physical abuse (Baumrind et al., 2002; Deater-Deckard et al., 1996; McLoyd and Smith, 2002).”
