| Abstract | A study examined how Swedish parents discipline their 1- to 6-year-old children. Data were collected from 200 families, using two instruments which were both employed in previous studies: the EAS Temperament Survey and the Manageability Index. Other methods used included interviewing mothers about family demographics and a "parental modernity scale" which measured parents' traditionalism and progressiveness. Findings from the study of Swedish parents were compared to findings from earlier studies on the United States and Bermuda in terms of six categories: (1) physical punishment; (2) physical restraint; (3) reasoning, or child-centered explanations for why the child's behavior was inappropriate; (4) coercive verbal control; (5) low use of authority; and (6) behavior modification techniques. Compared to subjects in these other studies, Swedish parents were found to display low use of authority, a high level of verbal coercion, and a low level of physical punishment. (Charts comparing the findings to the results from earlier studies on parenting in the United States and Bermuda are included.) (AJH) |
