  • Title: A child's emotions and adult authoritarianism as determinants of punishment.
    Author: Savitsky JC, Hess TG.
    Journal: J Genet Psychol; 1975 Dec; 127(2d Half):249-55. PubMed ID: 1206387.
    Abstract:
    The present research attempted to assess the effects of a child's emothins on the severity of punishment suggested by adult subjects who hold authoritarian or nonauthoritarian attitudes about child rearing. The administration of a punishment scale, the dependent measure, to several population suggested that this scale is a reliable measurement instrument. Also, it was found that authoritarians suggested more severe punsihment, but that a child's emotions may have little effect on the level of suggested punishment.
