  • Abigail S. Novak

摘要

The purpose of this study was to examine the relationships between ACEs in early childhood and behaviors and punishment experiences in late childhood and adolescence, as well as comparing these relationships between Black and White youth. Analyses were conducted using multigroup structural equation modeling and secondary data from the LONGSCAN consortium (N = 1075). Findings indicated ACEs are indirectly associated with punishment for Black children, but not for White children. ACEs were not indirectly associated with delinquency for either Black or White children. According to results, Black children are more likely to experience punishment following exposure to ACEs, making early intervention and prevention important priorities to prevent long-term negative outcomes.
