Orphan discipline and child neglect: An analysis from 48 countries
Orphan exposure to violent discipline is poorly understood, as research on parents' disciplinary practices largely focuses on biological families.

This analysis from over 48 countries finds the lower odds of physical discipline are a result, largely, of neglect.
