My dad had a variation of the time out that I will definitely employ if I have kids.
He made go put my hands up on the wall and kneel on my knees. This was extremely effective as a) it gets extremely uncomfortable really fast and b) it was humiliating when it was done infront of friends.
However, even though that was pretty effective, I still think spanking was the most effective method used on me. Although my dad did take it too far at times, it sure as hell instilled the fear of God into me when I knew I screwed up.
I'll probably use spanking in extreme situations.
