mostly lectured
my parents rarely spanked us.

I didn't spank my children I lectured. They would ask "can't we just have a spanking?"
My sisters don't spank either. All of our kids are well mannered and can behave in public. We all would leave a fun activity in a heartbeat if a kid was acting up (as early as toddlers). They learned to act right real quick.

Yeah, I think my parents style would be no bueno today. My dad was an engineer. All lectures went back to engineering.

My brother clocked me in the head with a ping pong paddle. Engineering. Me and my brothers jumped off the roof. Engineering. Lied about where we went? Engineering.

Being sent out back to fetch the switch you were going to get your arse beat with... total mind game. Bring back a little wisp and she'd get the whole tree to beat your arse with. Too big... well you brought it.....

All the adults I know whose parents took this approach turned out to be assholes.
