dc.description.abstract | A robust research literature links parental spanking with negative behavioral outcomes for children, however, it remains unclear whether conditions in the community may moderate the associations between spanking and behavior pro- blems in early childhood. In the current study, we examined whether community violence exposure moderated the associations of maternal spanking with ex- ternalizing and internalizing behavior problems of young children. The sample used in this study was urban families and their children ages 3–5 (n=2,472). We used fixed effects regression models, which yield stronger statistical control for baseline behavior problems, selection bias, and omitted variables bias. Mother's spanking was associated with elevated levels of both externalizing (β = .037, p < .001) and internalizing (β = .016, p < .001) behavior problems. Community violence exposure also predicted higher levels of externalizing (β = .071, p < .01) and inter- nalizing (β=.043, p<.05) behavior problems. Community violence exposure did not moderate the associations between maternal spanking and behavior problems. Professionals working with families should promote the use of nonphysical dis- ciplinary practices, regardless of the level of violence and crime in the community in which the family resides. | en_US |
