Diana Blumberg Baumrind (born August 23, 1927) is a clinical and developmental psychologist.
Baumrind was born into a small Jewish community in New York City, the first of two daughters of Hyman and Mollie Blumberg. She completed her A.B. in Psychology and Philosophy at Hunter College in 1948, and her M.A. and Ph.D. in Psychology at the University of California, Berkeley.[1] Her doctoral dissertation was entitled "Some personality and situational determinants of behavior in a discussion group".[2]
After being awarded her doctorate she served as a staff psychologist at Cowell Memorial Hospital in Berkeley. She was also director of two U. S. Public Health Service projects and a consultant on a California state project. From 1958-1960 she had a private practice in Berkeley.[3]
She is a clinical and developmental psychologist at the Institute of Human Development, University of California, Berkeley.[4] She is known for her research on parenting styles[5][6] and for her critique of deception in psychological research, especially Stanley Milgram's controversial experiment.[7][8][9]
Her parenting styles were based on two aspects of parenting that she found to be extremely important. The first was "Parental responsiveness", which refers to the degree the parent responds to the child's needs. The second was "Parental demandingness" which is the extent to which the parent expects more mature and responsible behavior from a child.
She has studied the effects of corporal punishment on children, and has concluded that mild corporal punishment has no detrimental effect.[10] However her study failed to pass peer-review for any scientific journals, and at present remains self-published.
Her scientific influences include Theodor Adorno, Else Frenkel-Brunswik, Daniel J. Levinson, Nevit Sanford, Egon Brunswik, David Krech, Richard S. Crutchfield[1]
