Interviewer instructions
This question is specially designed to measure various ways in which parents discipline their children. It is important that you ask this question in a neutral way - do not let your voice reflect approval or disapproval of the discipline method mentioned. It is important to mention that we are interested in knowing only about what may have occurred during the past month - the 30 days preceding the survey. When asking this question, remind the respondent, from time to time, that you are asking about the last 30 days or one month, and that you are interested if the respondent or anyone else has used this method with the child.

This is the most severe form of physical punishment we ask about in this question. This question refers to punishment using a soft or hard object such as a stick, belt, cane, or other object to beat the child repeatedly.

Circle '1' for 'Yes' and '2' for 'No' in this question.
