Age

This graph is supporting the age group that has taken the survey of Spanking and

Corporal Punishment. With this group it will show the percentage of age group from 21 to 55 and over.

This also was a survey taken by Tuskegee University students. The ages are under 21, which has a

percent of 36, 21-24, which has a percent of 43, 25-40, which has a percent of 8, 41-54, which has a

percent of 8 as well and 55 and over has a percent of 4.


10/34

Gender

This graph will show the percentage of gender of the people that has taken the survey.

This graph only consists of two genders, which there are only two genders that a person can be, females

and males. The female has a percent of 65 and the male has a percent of 35. So this tells you that there

were more women that have taken the survey then men. This is like almost half of the women of men.


11/34

Classification

This graph will show the percentage of classification of the students of Tuskegee. First

you have the freshman, which has a percent of 19. Second, you have the sophomore, which has a

percent of 25. Third, you have juniors, which have a percent of 26. Fourth, you have graduate students,

which have a percent of 10. Finally, you have vet school, which have a percent of 19.


12/34

This graph is on; do you think it is okay to spank children as a means of discipline? My personal

reason will be yes because children get out of line at times, so they need a little spanking to get them

back in check. This shows the people that said no and the people that said yes. The people that said no,

has a percent of 21. The people that said yes, has a percent of 79. This shows the person that has taken

the survey really agrees on spanking their children.


13/34

This graph is on; did your parents spank you as a means of discipline? For my own reasons, I

would say yes because I know I was a bad child and I know I deserved every bit of it. The people that

said yes, has a percent of 78. The people that said no, has a percent of 22. Again, the people that says

yes outweighs the people that says no.


14/34

This graph is on, Should parents be allowed to use corporal punishment to discipline their

children? Some people was asking me, what does that mean and they were confused at first but I just

said anything other than spanking. The people that said yes, has a percent of 66. The people that said

no, has a percent of 34. I agree with the people that say yes.


15/34

This graph is on; does corporal punishment work better than other disciplinary methods that

dont involve physical pain? I say yes because it all depends on how bad or the situation that the child

has done. The people that took the survey and said yes, has a percent of 45. The people that has said no,

has a percent of 54. All the people that have taken the survey with these percentages disagree with

what I said.


16/34

This graph is on, have you ever been in trouble with the police? Notice the people answers on

this question because it will tell who the criminals are and who are not. The people that said yes, has a

percent of 45. The people that said no, has a percent of 54. I think the people that said no are lying but

is trying to cover it up but it is just a survey so you are not going to get in any trouble.


17/34

This graph is on; overall, do you think that you deserved the punishment that your

parents/guardians used on you when you were a child? I said yes because I know I crossed the line and

they crossed my behind. The people that said yes, has a percent of 80. The people that said no, has a

percent of 20. Your parents/guardians suppose to spank you, how else will you learn right from wrong. If

your parent/guardians never spank you then everything will be like you running over them and you can

do whatever you want to do, not in my lifetime.


18/34

This graph is on, how likely do you think you will spank your children as a means of discipline?

With 1 being very unlikely and 5 being very likely. I say 5 because my children will get a whooping and

spanking and any other kind of punishment you can name, they got to know who is in charge. 1 has a

percent of 8, 2 has a percent of 15, 3 has a percent of 34, 4 has a percent of 15 and 5 has a percent of

28.

Summary

This document is made up of tables and graphs on a survey that the students at Tuskegee

University have taken. This survey provided all the information that you will read about. It has tables

showing the frequencies and percentages of age, gender, classification and question that were

answered in the survey. As you read along you will find that the document is organized properly and

neat to the level where it is presentable.

Conclusion

With the people taking this survey, gave me all my information I provided in the document.

Without the students on Tuskegee University and others who have taken the survey I wouldnt have

anything to write up. I thank each and every person who has help, which is the students, for taking my

survey and making this happen. Really, didnt nobody have to take any of my surveys, it was up to them

to take it or not, but they did and now I have information to develop a written document for Spanking

and Corporal Punishment.
