Females, younger adults, sexual minorities, and multiracial individuals most vulnerable to adverse childhood experiences
A study just published in BMC Public Health looks at a dataset of 211,376 adults across 34 states in the U.S. and finds that childhood adversity is common and higher in certain categories. Author Zachary Giano tells us more about the study in this blog.
Adverse childhood experiences related to negative health outcomes
As researchers, we often try to pinpoint the causes of negative outcomes in adults. What factors contribute to obesity? What about heart disease? Why are some people more prone to depression and anxiety while others are not? Surely it is not random chance why some individuals are more prone to these outcomes while others are not.
