Child disciplineChild discipline is the methods used to prevent future unwanted behaviour in children. The word discipline is defined as imparting knowledge and skill, in other words, to teach. In its most general sense, discipline refers to systematic instruction given to a disciple. To discipline means to instruct a person to follow a particular code of conduct. Discipline is used by parents to teach their children about expectations, guidelines and principles.
BéhaviorismeLe béhaviorisme ou comportementalisme est un paradigme de la psychologie scientifique selon lequel le comportement observable est essentiellement conditionné soit par les mécanismes de réponse réflexe à un stimulus donné, soit par l'histoire des interactions de l'individu avec son environnement, notamment les punitions et renforcements par le passé. L'approche béhavioriste vise à mettre au jour des relations statistiquement significatives entre les variables de l'environnement et les mesures du comportement étudié sans faire appel au psychisme comme mécanisme explicatif.
