Thesis Title

Read article at Massey Research Online:

Ms Poananga conducted qualitative strength-based research on current successful Maori child-rearing values and discipline practices to explore how these can be effectively incorporated into psychological practice with Maori. In-depth semi-structured interviews were used to determine how Maori psychologists, as experts of best practice for Maori, negotiated psychological practices around the issue of discipline. This was combined with a case study of a modern-day Maori whanau who used a positive non-smacking approach to 鈥榳hanau management鈥�. Ms Poananga鈥檚 research concluded that privileging the centrality of whanau and culturally specific understandings of child-rearing and discipline is necessary for effective psychological practices that draw on standard behavioural discipline strategies, and that this knowledge is necessary to New Zealand psychologists鈥� ethical obligation to cultural competencies.
