Early Life Adversity (ELA) has been linked to accelerated epigenetic aging. While positive parenting is hypothesized buffer the detrimental effects of ELA on child development, its role in mitigating age acceleration remains unclear. Data from 2,039 children (49.7% female) Future Families and Child Wellbeing Study (FFCWS) were included current study (46.7% Black, 26.5% Hispanic, 19% White non-Hispanic). Home community threat observed measured ages 3 9. Salivary was at 9 15. Positive reduces pace aging low, but not high, community-threat environments. Interventions across home environments may be necessary prevent ELA's biological embedding.

Intergenerational trauma, violence, and maltreatment, in which symptoms or experiences of an ancestor's trauma repeat otherwise manifest subsequent generations, presents a weighty societal challenge to multiplicity therapeutic intervention strategies have been applied. Theoretical perspectives are antecedent clinical social intervention, informing decisions both policy practice. However, these frequently remain subliminal imperceptible the discourse, resulting interventions that somewhat dislocated from their theoretical foundations. This narrative review seeks summarize discuss each theories as they apply intergenerational reveal potential association with specific models approaches. It positions flexibility between integration opportunities reach new enhanced understandings engender distinctive interventions. An enriched understanding explaining deeper appreciation for pertinence theory practice, incitement blend unique ways is, herewith, reached.
