Development, Reliability, and Validity of the Daily Telephone Discipline Interview 

The purpose of this study was to investigate the reliability and validity of a new discipline daily-report telephone inventory with mothers of conduct-problem children. The study also sought to investigate the relationship between parential disciplinary style and parent psychological stutus, stressors, and child behavior problems and mother-chiuld interactions. 

The results of this study revealed significant correlations between mothers' reports of depression and stress and Daily Discipline Interviews (DDI) and disciplinary strategies characterized as inflexible, inappropriate, and critical. These promising results suggest that the DDI may be a low-cost effecient way of getting reasonably accurate information about parent disciplinary approaches./p>
