Understanding African American Discipline Styles
Abstract:ABSTRACT

Discipline styles among African American parents are closely scrutinized; yet, they may be among the most positive aspects of African American child rearing. Families headed by “hardline” disciplinarians often interface with human, service providers who may perceive them as dysfunctional.

The authors report the findings of an exploratory study which examined discipline styles among African American families from various socioeconomic backgrounds in a midwestem community In-depth interviews were conducted, using a naturalistic method of inquiry. Emergent themes were analyzed, using an interactive model to contrast elements of African American and perceived European American methods of discipline. Based on research findings, multilevel service suggestions are provided.
