Abstract

Adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) are potentially stressful events that children experience before the age of 18 years old. Numerous studies have linked negative health, as well as developmental and behavioral outcomes to the exposure of ACEs. This study analyzes existing research theories and results to discuss the relationship between ACE and mental health (such as depression, anxiety, and suicide). Findings provide support for a relationship between ACEs and the prospective risk of common mental illnesses. Some measures (Trauma informed care, Nurse-Family Partnership) may reduce stress-related burdens on children and adolescents, which could lead to improvements in their psychological complaints in adult period.
