The aim of the study was to define the role of corporal punishment experienced in childhood in the development of readiness for interpersonal aggression. 173 young adults assessed retrospectively if and how often they, as children, experienced the four following forms of corporal punishment: grabbing, spanking, pulling an ear or forcing to knee, and belting. Readiness for aggression was measured by The Readiness for Interpersonal Aggression Inventory, which enables to assess three distinct, intrapsychic mechanisms regulating aggressive acts: the emotional-impulsive readiness, the habitual-cognitive readiness and the personality-immanent readiness. The results show that corporal punishment used by fathers is a positive, significant predictor of all three patterns of readiness for interpersonal aggression in sons and daughters. No relation was found between corporal punishment by mothers and readiness for aggression of children, despite the fact that mothers used corporal punishment toward sons and daughters as frequent as fathers.

This study examined the effect of history of harsh parenting on readiness for aggression in young adults testing the mediating effect of emotional reaction to frustration and provocation that is assumed to arise in the context of a history of physical punishment and psychological aggression. Data were collected from 402 participants including 187 Poles (Mage = 9.5; SD = 1.2) and 215 Americans (Mage = 19.16, SD = 1.15). Participants reported retrospectively on corporal punishment and psychological aggression experienced during childhood. Based on self-report instruments, sensitivity to provocation and frustration and three patterns of readiness for aggression in adulthood were assessed. Contrary to the US sample, sensitivity to provocation and frustration were mediators in the Polish sample alone. The important role of contextual factors that define harsh parenting circumstances, such as cultural context and sex of the parent, are discussed.
