The study also examined the mediating role of executive functions (EFs) in this relationship among male students. Design a longitudinal survey. Methods a longitudinal survey was conducted with 293 students from 4 vocational colleges in Shandong Province, China. ACEs, aggressive behavior, and EFs were measured using the Adverse Childhood Experiences Questionnaire, the 12-item Aggression Questionnaire, and the Behavior Rating Inventory of Executive Function-Adult Version, respectively. Pearson correlation analysis was used to assess the relationships between ACEs, aggressive behavior, and EFs. The moderating effect of gender on the associations between ACEs and aggressive behavior was examined using multiple linear regression analysis. The mediating role of EFs in the relationship between ACEs and aggressive behavior among male students was analyzed using mediation analysis. Results ACEs significantly associated with aggressive behavior two years later among vocational college students (r = 0.118, p < 0.05), with gender playing a moderating role in this relationship (β = -1.429, SE = 0.711, p = 0.045).

The <i>Regulate</i>, <i>Relate and Reason</i> (3R's) phase of the Neurosequential Model in Education (NME) is an example. However, historical models such as Montessori, have largely been ignored. The aim of this study was to compare the 3R's of the NME with the Montessori model, (which historically was reputed to be effective in healing trauma-affected children) and examine whether Montessori's model aligns with the neuroscientific principles and practices undergirding the 3R's of the NME. Braun & Clarke's reflexive thematic analysis was used. The three themes identified were: - how Montessori (a) intentionally incorporated activities into the curriculum that provided repetitive neural input to the brainstem thus helping children to regulate; (b) intentionally created a rich relational environment (a non-traditional teacher, mixed age groups and peer teaching); and (c) explained that children are neurobiologically unable, rather than unwilling, to use reason when they are distressed. This paper suggests that the century year old Montessori model aligns closely with the neuroscientific principles undergirding the NME (3Rs), and that evidence of this alignment could be empowering for the thousands of contemporary Montessori educators globally (who are increasingly facing the task of supporting trauma-affected children), because it will provide them with further scientific backing for the uniqueness of the Montessori model and may enhance their professional practice and confidence giving them a 'head-start' in relation to their ability to support trauma-affected children.</p>","PeriodicalId":44763,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Child & Adolescent Trauma","volume":"19 1","pages":"135-145"},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2026-02-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC13004790/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147500246","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A convenient sample of 403 participants aged 15 to 18 was included in the study.

Our results show a significant correlation between history of abuse and bullying in adolescents and pathological concerns over their body. We further illustrate that factors such as mindfulness and a network of support, although negatively correlating with the psychopathological concerns, do not mediate the relationship between abuse, bullying and dysmorphia. Inasmuch as participants with higher levels of mindfulness and social support report less victimization and dysmorphia, taken alone, they are not enough to curb the burden of childhood-induced distress in teens.

In total, 2821 adolescents (1273 boys; 16.3 ± 1.0 years) from 4 secondary schools completed the Childhood Trauma Questionnaire-Short Form (CTQ-SF), Physical Activity Vital Sign (PAVS), Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9) and Generalized Anxiety Disorder - 7 (GAD-7).

The trauma-informed perspective on gang membership has further shown that posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) plays a pivotal role in facilitating the link between trauma exposure and adolescent gang membership. However, a significant limitation of the literature is the scarce information regarding the impact of other mental health difficulties, such as major depressive disorder (MDD) and anxiety disorders, on the path between distinct abuse experiences, such as physical victimization, and adolescent gang membership. The present study used a subsample (<i>n</i> = 6,599, 61% youth of color) of the 2018 National Survey of Youth in Custody data to examine the connections among self-reported physical victimization, mental health problems (i.e., PTSD, MDD, and anxiety disorders), and gang membership. Results from path analysis indicated that PTSD helped explain the positive links between physical victimization and gang membership, whereas MDD helped reduce these links, and anxiety disorders had no significant effects. These findings suggest that certain mental health difficulties may place youth at risk of gang membership (e.g., PTSD), whereas others, such as MDD, may mitigate this risk.

This study aimed to examine the impact of adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) on multidimensional health patterns among older adults in China. Data were derived from the China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study (CHARLS) 2020 survey. A total of 2,454 older adults (aged ≥ 60 years) were included as the analysis sample. Multidimensional health was assessed using measures of Activities of Daily Living (ADLs), Instrumental Activities of Daily Living (IADLs), chronic diseases, depressive symptoms, cognitive function, self-rated health, and social participation. Latent class analysis (LCA) was employed to analyze the potential classification of multidimensional health. LCA revealed three distinct multidimensional health classes: poor physical and depressive symptoms type (Class 1), isolated type (Class 2), and cognitive impairment and isolated type (Class 3). Individuals experiencing 2, 3, or ≥ 4 ACEs showed higher odds of belonging to Class 1 compared to Class 2, with the strongest association observed for ≥ 4 ACEs. Subgroup analyses showed the association between ≥ 4 ACEs and Class 1 was stronger in urban residents compared to those living in rural areas. For gender differences, females showed stronger associations between ≥ 4 ACEs and Class 1, while males showed significant associations with Class 3 but females did not. ACEs have a significant impact on multidimensional health in later life among Chinese older adults. The results provide empirical evidence to inform early-life interventions and personalized health promotion strategies for older adults, with effective health communication serving as a critical pathway for translating these findings into practice.</p><p><strong>Supplementary information: </strong>The online version contains supplementary material available at https://doi.org/10.1007/s40653-026-00823-4.</p>","PeriodicalId":44763,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Child & Adolescent Trauma","volume":"19 3","pages":"1049-1060"},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2026-01-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC13546271/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148901261","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Sociodemographic data were collected using a pretested and modified interview schedule. ACEs were recorded using the ACE-International Questionnaire, and ADHD symptoms were screened using the ASRS v1.1 tool.

Further, the study also revealed a dose-response increase in the risk of overall ADHD symptoms and their subtypes with increasing ACE levels. Exposures to individual ACE domains, including household substance use, household mental illness, incarcerated household member, household violence, emotional neglect, any type of abuse, and bullying, were associated with higher odds of overall ADHD symptoms, but the associations varied across ADHD subtypes. These findings underscore the importance of ACEs in ADHD epidemiology in India and similar settings, where ACEs are often under-recognized as significant determinants of health.
