What would my child describe as both caring and hurtful in how adults set limits?
Young people reported on both warmth and physical punishment. Measuring them separately helps avoid assuming that one rules out the other.
Who was studied?
Adolescent respondents from six municipalities in Cundinamarca, Colombia.
Age / stage: Ages 10–19
Read with three questions
- Who described family warmth and physical punishment in this survey?
- Whose perspective is represented by the ratings, and whose perspective is missing?
- What would my child describe as both caring and hurtful in how adults set limits?
