Abstract
⺠Presents a meta-analysis of longitudinal studies of negative effects of spanking. ⺠Spanking had a small but non-trivial negative effect on cognitive performance. ⺠Effects of spanking were largely trivial for other behavior problems. ⺠Spanking has not only few benefits, but also fewer negative consequences than often assumed.
