Brown, William E.; Payne, Tyrone – Academic Therapy, 1988
Over 50% of 219 K-12 teachers surveyed felt that overall school discipline was slightly or much worse than 10 years ago. Data on size of school, student population (urban, suburban, or rural), teacher sex, teacher age, grade level taught, use of corporal punishment, and out-of-school suspensions are also analyzed.

Brown, William E.; Payne, Tyrone – Academic Therapy, 1988
A survey of 339 teachers (grades K-12) found lack of motivation and poor parental support to be the biggest discipline problems. Nearly 90 percent worked with a stated/written discipline policy. Approximately 75 percent believed that corporal punishment should continue. Verbal reprimands were the most common behavior change method used. (VW)
