“…Many studies show that one of the main reasons why people avoid non‐normative behaviour is the shame of being exposed to their immediate environment if they are caught. The fear of shame helps control behaviour and strengthens social conformity (Fitch & Nazaretian, 2019; Tignor & Colvin, 2017), prompting the question: Does parenthood reinforce the fear of being shamed?…”

A lthough parenting is considered a turning point that reduces non-normative behaviours, some parents choose to occasionally continue using various drugs. The present study examines the personality and demographic characteristics of these parents by comparing three parent groups: those who do not use at all, those who use only cannabis and those who use other substances. Three self-report quantitative questionnaires: Demographic, Patterns of use of psychoactive substances and the Big Five Personality traits questionnaire, were administered to 627 parents. The findings show that the proportion of unmarried and secular men is higher in the group of parents who use substances. They also were found to be younger and less educated than the other parent's groups. We examined the parents' personality characteristics using the Big Five model and found that parents who use substances occasionally exhibit higher levels of extraversion and openness to experiences, and lower levels of conscience. The differences found in the characteristics of parents who use cannabis to those who use other substances, indicate the normativeness of cannabis use among parents, and reflect the need for intervention programs among parents who use substances, which may have a great influence on drug use among their children.

“…Recent research found racial differences in the perception of teacher fairness (Pesta, 2021); it may be that gender differences exist as well. Other research demonstrates that females are more likely to accept the punishment and experience shame rather than defiance and therefore may work to regain their feminine identity which is at odds with labels such as "delinquent" and "troublemaker" (Fitch & Nazaretian, 2019). While labeling theory is certainly important for understanding the gender gap in the school-to-prison pipeline, this study suggests that a labeling via school bond perspective is better suited to understand gender differences in the pathway from school exclusion to serious delinquency.…”

“…Pertinent to this research is the lack of variables measuring student perceptions of the fairness of the punishment or their acknowledgement and/or acceptance of the punishment. If there are differences in the acceptance of punishment across gender which has been suggested by prior research (Fitch & Nazaretian, 2019), then measures of these concepts are imperative. In the future perhaps self-reports of behavior, punishment, and reactions could be compared to official data (disciplinary reports via school administration) to further identify misperceptions and biases in the sanctioning of students.…”

Is the School-To-Prison Pipeline Just for Boys? The Effect of School Punishment Across Gender

Boys are overrepresented in school punishment, dropout, and delinquency setting them on a path towards criminal offending. There is limited research on the effect of school punishment among females and if that effect varies across gender. Informed by a labeling perspective, this study examines the effect of exclusionary discipline on dropout, delinquency, and criminal offending among males and females. Special attention is paid to the role of school bonding as a potential gendered mechanism that protects female students from negative outcomes associated with school punishment. Results suggest both similarities and differences in the effect of exclusionary discipline across gender.

Compared with other mainstream criminological theories, Reintegrative Shaming Theory (RST) draws insufficient empirical evaluations. Given RST’s unique attention to non-Western societies and the significance of shaming in Chinese society, China provides a strategic setting for RST’s empirical assessment. Utilizing a Chinese youth sample, this study explores the association between interdependency and the probability of wrongdoing, and the mediating role of perceived shame. We find that strong school attachment is directly associated with the reduced likelihood of wrongdoing, and indirectly via perceived shame. The effects of family and neighborhood attachments on perceived shame and the probability of wrongdoing are insignificant. The results lend partial support to RST and highlight the essential role of school in children’s development in the Chinese context.
