Question 2

Describe the three parental discipline techniques that developmentalists have shown to be associated with moral development.

Accepted Answer

The three parental discipline techniques that have been associated with moral development are love withdrawal,power assertion,and induction. Love withdrawal is a technique in which a parent withholds attention or love from the adolescent.This induces fear of punishment and fear of losing the parents' love as a way of attempting to produce moral behavior.However,this type of discipline has been shown to produce a high level of arousal and anxiety in adolescents. Power assertion is a discipline technique in which the parent attempts to gain control over the adolescent or the adolescent's resources.This can generate hostility in the adolescent,along with a high degree of emotional arousal. Induction is the discipline technique in which a parent uses reason and explanation of the consequences for others for the adolescent's actions.Induction is more likely to produce a moderate level of arousal in adolescents,a level that permits them to attend to the cognitive rationales that the parents offer.According to research,induction is more positively related to moral development than love withdrawal or power assertion.
