Abuzul fizic, psihologic şi metodele de disciplinare pozitivă în practica parentală a părinţilor adolescenţilor de 16 ani din România
Physical Abuse, Psychological Abuse and Positive Disciplinating Methods Employed by Parents of Romanian 16-years Old Adolescents

Summary/Abstract: The current study presents data from the BECAN* project. The use of physically and emotionally abusive parental practices as well as of positive discipline methods are influenced by the gender factor. The parental behaviors of mothers and fathers differ if they are used toward girls or boys. The results of a survey realized on a sample of 1198 Romanian parents of 16 years old adolescents show that both physically and psychologically abusive parental practices are used more often by mothers than by fathers, and both mothers and fathers use them more often toward boys than girls. The tendency is the same in the case of last year prevalence and life long prevalence. Positive discipline methods are used more often toward girls both by mothers and fathers. The results need to be interpreted taking account on the particularities of sharing the child care related tasks between parents in Romanian families.
