The present study was conducted to determine the effective disciplinary methods of educators on reducing child abuse in one of the boarding centers covered by welfare. The research method is qualitative case study and sampling method is available. To conduct this study, a sample of educators working in one of the girls' private boarding centers under the auspices of the Welfare of Tehran agreed to participate in the study. Data were collected through observation, interview, questionnaire and daily report book. Educators were divided into two groups based on the extent of child abuse during their hours of attendance: effective educators (with relatively low levels of child abuse) and less effective educators (with relatively high levels of child abuse). The disciplinary methods they use to manage children's behavior were compared. Three-step coding technique (open, axial and selective) was used to analyze the data. According to the results, the dominant approach in the disciplinary activities of effective educators was the comprehensive versus traditional approach. In other words, effective educators used comprehensive, supportive and participatory activities in the components of relationships, respect, interaction, engagement, and environment to establish discipline, and less effective educators used traditional activities based on reward, punishment, and control.
