“…(2016) with 370 adolescents, it has been stated that domestic violence isn't affected from the education of parents. 18 While this finding complies with the result of the study performed by Kaplan et al (2014), Nabors et al (2006) and Kodan (2013), it isn't in parallel with the findings of Efe and Ayaz (2010), Arat and Altınay (2008). 15,20,[26][27][28] Following the research, no significant difference was determined in terms of the violence tendencies of university students by the monthly income of the family.…”

Gender socialization is generally expressed as males' learning masculine behaviors and females' learning feminine behaviors.…”

“…Students reported the occurrence of school CP on the Structured Questionnaire for Children (SQC; Deb & Modak, 2007). This instrument was developed with the assistance of two experts in the field before being utilized in several prior studies (e.g., Deb, Bhattacharyya, & Thomas, 2016;Deb & Modak, 2010;Deb, Ray, Bhattacharyya, & Sun, 2016;Deb & Walsh, 2012). For school CP, students indicated whether they had been injured physically or seriously hurt in school by teachers or staff in the past year (0 ¼ No, 1 ¼ Yes).…”

There is considerable evidence that parental corporal punishment (CP) is positively associated with children's behavioral and mental health problems. However, there is very little evidence addressing whether CP perpetrated by teachers or school staff is similarly associated with problematic student functioning. To address this gap in the research literature, data were collected from students in a locale where school CP continues to be widely practiced. Participants were 519 adolescents attending public or private schools in Puducherry, a city in eastern India. Students completed surveys assessing school CP, internalizing problems, social support, and resilience. The results indicated that 62% of the students reported experiencing school CP in the past 12 months, with males and those attending public schools being significantly more likely to report school CP than females and those in private schools. Youth who reported school CP reported more anxiety and depression. That relation was more pronounced in youth who reported family tension. Social support and resilience did not moderate the relations. The findings add to the substantial evidence about negative associations
