Attitudes towards Corporal Punishment of Children in Finland 2007: Trend

The data are part of Central Union for Child Welfare study that investigates the use of corporal punishment in upbringing and attitudes towards it in Finland. Telephone interviews were carried out in October 2007 as part of a Telebus study conducted by Taloustutkimus. The data comprise one statement: "Using corporal punishment to discipline children is acceptable, at least in exceptional circumstances", and the respondents were asked to what extent they agreed or disagreed with it. Background variables included, among others, the respondent's region (NUTS3) of residence, municipality type, gender, age, level of education, economic activity and occupational status, household composition, employment status, use of telephone and mobile phone, and number and ages of children living in the household.

本数据集隶属于芬兰儿童福利中央联盟（Central Union for Child Welfare）开展的一项研究，该研究旨在调查芬兰国内体罚在育儿实践中的应用情况及公众对此的态度。2007年10月，作为Taloustutkimus机构开展的Telebus研究项目的组成部分，研究人员通过电话访谈完成了本次数据采集工作。本次数据集包含一则调研陈述："至少在特殊情形下，使用体罚管教儿童是可接受的"，并要求受访者表明其对该陈述的同意或反对程度。研究纳入的背景变量涵盖受访者的居住地区（NUTS3分区）、市镇类型、性别、年龄、受教育水平、经济活动状况与职业身份、家庭构成、就业状态、固定电话与移动电话使用情况，以及居住于该家庭的子女数量与年龄等多项内容。
