About This Book

Adverse Childhood Experiences and Their Life-Long Impact explores how these experiences influence cognitive, behavioral and social experiences in adulthood. The book conceptualizes the types of violence, abuse, neglect, and/or trauma that factor into ACEs. It also explores the psychopathological outcomes of ACEs among children, including neurodevelopmental and psychosocial mechanisms. By drawing on cross-cultural perspectives, the authors provide insight into the variations between the adversity and trauma children experience. Sections also cover preventive measures, risk factors and various forms of interventional treatment, making this book a core read for psychologists, physicians, social workers, educators and researchers in the field.

  • Provides a comprehensive framework for understanding adverse childhood experiences
  • Reviews the link between ACE and homelessness, substance abuse, and physical and/or sexual violence in adulthood
  • Highlights key components of cross-cultural perceptions on child abuse and neglect, including differences of gender
  • Explores options for prevention and intervention for those who experience adverse childhood experiences
