THE PROBLEM AND ITS SETTING
INTRODUCTION
often misused word, especially when it is mistakenly equated with punishment. To many
teachers, discipline means punishment. “This child needs disciplining” translates into “This child
needs spanking or caning.” This is WRONG! Discipline is the practice of teaching or training a
person to obey rules or a code of behaviour in both the short and long terms. Discipline is meant
to develop a child’s behaviour, especially in matters of conduct2.

REVIEW OF RELATED LITERATURE AND
STUDIES
A. RELATED LITERATURE
1. FOREIGN LITERATURE
Goodman (2007) suggested that discipline in schools is failing and needs to change.
Discipline policies need to be fair and consistent for students to abide by them. “The argument is
made that if discipline is to succeed, students must believe in and identify with the goals it is
designed to support.3
It is said that the students who receive exclusionary discipline consequences are usually
at-risk youth from socioeconomically disadvantaged environments, with social emotional deficits,
and live in single parent homes (Atkins et al., 2002; Casella, 2003; Cohen, 2001)4.
Charles (2008) said that the assertive discipline model stresses positive reinforcement for
good behavior and consequences for misbehavior. The model is not meant to serve as a tool to
punish misbehavior, but rather as a tool to prevent it from occurring in the first place. 5

Cordero (2005) said that studies around the world show the corporal punishment does not
harm than good since “hurts” children physically and emotionally, destroys the self-confidence,
damage their relationship with their parents or guardians, and still fear, mistrust and hatred 7.
Malindog (2011) states that the United Nations Convention on the rights of the child,
ratified in 1.93 countries includes Philippines, “Article 1.9 requires all states to make all
appropriate legislative, administrative, social and educational measures to protect child from all
forms of physical or mental violence, injury or abuse, neglect or negligent treatments,
maltreatment or exploitation including sexual abuse, while in the care of parent (s), legal
guardian(s) or any who has the care of the child”8.
According to Intervention Central (2014), teachers should use the positive reinforcement
when it comes to the punishment of the students. The power of punishment techniques is that they
can rapidly decrease a student's rate of problem behaviors. When planning a behavioral program,
then, it is always a good idea to complement negative consequences for inappropriate behaviors
with positive-reinforcement system the rewards a child’s positive behaviors. 9

RELATED STUDIES
1. FOREIGN STUDIES
Tassell, (2005) cited that teachers do not generally want to give control to their students.
They perceive that the mark of a good teacher is a teacher who is in control of the class. The
amount of control that teachers have in the class is often seen by the administrators as a
measurement of the quality of a teacher.10
On the other hand, Sailor, D.H (2010) stated that physical punishment to children should
stop that it may lead them to become violence when they are teenagers and adults. They can even
hurt their peers, or companionship because of the improper behavior that they experience or it is
because of the punishment that they encounter at home. Some of their parents did not used the
right way of disciplining their children at home so that they used wrong way of punishment that
for the parents is effective, they think that it is the right way of disciplining their child to teach
them a lesson. 11
According to Holden, (2015) the discipline and punishment of children by parents is
among the most commonly investigated topics in developmental psychology. The types of
disciplinary techniques used by parents reflect a core ingredient of those parents’ approach to
childrearing. Discipline occurs when there is a breakdown in child management and the child has
made, in the parent’s view, a transgression. Disciplinary techniques are those methods used by
parents to correct misbehavior, discourage inappropriate behavior, and gain compliance from
their children. These techniques consist of a variety of actions and reactions and include such
common techniques as reasoning, psychological control, coercion by threats or corporal
punishment, time-outs, withdrawal of privileges, or ignoring. Such actions inadvertently reinforce
misbehavior or model inappropriate behavior. 12

her study because it is composed of one section only. The Grade VI pupils have a total number of
sixty four (64), but when the researcher get in to the classroom and before she distributed the test
papers, she noted that there are four absent pupils in the morning session. The researcher selected
them purposively to gather necessary data for the study.
To measure the responses of the Grade VI pupils to the effects of teacher’s discipline to
the personal development, Weighted Mean the formula was used.
The researcher used weighted mean to determine the effects of teachers discipline to the
personal development of Grade VI pupils. The formula is:
Where:
WM = Weighted Mean
f = frequency
TF = total frequency

A five- point Likert Scale was used in her survey questionnaire which links the scale
(1.79-1.00) to (5.00-4.20), with (1.79-1.00) as the lowest and the (5.00-4.20) as the highest degree
of judgment .The interpretation was based on the above formula of the weighted mean using the
following range as scale.
