Design Population‐representative survey conducted by computer‐assisted telephone interviewing. Setting, participants residents aged 16 years older. Main outcome measures Mental disorder diagnoses lifetime major depressive disorder, current alcohol use (mild, moderate severe), generalised anxiety post‐traumatic stress disorder. Results More than one three Australians (3606/8503 surveyed participants; 38.0%; 95% CI, 36.7–39.3%) met diagnostic criteria for a The prevalence non‐maltreated was 21.6% (95% 19.9–23.3%; n = 851). This increased to 36.2% 33.5–38.9%; 764) those who experienced single type 54.8% 52.6–56.9%; 1991) multi‐type maltreatment. Compared with Australians, maltreated had about times odds any (odds ratio [OR], 2.82; 2.47–3.22), (OR, 3.14; 2.48–3.97), 3.19; 2.68–3.80) severe 2.62; 1.83–3.76), almost five 4.60; 3.00–7.07). Associations were strongest sexual abuse, emotional abuse strength did not differ gender. Adjustment childhood financial hardship socio‐economic status significantly attenuate associations.

Adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) are common in people at clinical high-risk for psychosis (CHR), however, the relationship between ACEs and long-term outcomes is still unclear. This study examined associations CHR individuals. 344 individuals 67 healthy controls (HC) were assessed using Childhood Trauma Questionnaire (CTQ), Bullying Experience of Care Abuse (CECA). followed up to 5 years.

Adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) can affect life-course health and well-being, including risk-taking behaviour trust. This study explored associations between ACEs trust in information on COVID-19, attitudes towards compliance with COVID-19 restrictions vaccine hesitancy.National cross-sectional telephone survey using a sample of landline mobile numbers stratified by Health Board, deprivation quintile age group.Households Wales during national (December 2020 to March 2021).2285 Welsh residents aged ≥18 years.Nine ACEs; low National Service (NHS) information; supporting removal social distancing mandatory face coverings; breaking restrictions; hesitancy (rejection or uncertainty vaccination).Increasing ACE counts were independently related NHS information, feeling unfairly restricted government ending coverings. High (4+ vs 0 ACEs) also associated distancing. Breaking increased count likelihood doubling from no 4+ ACEs. Vaccine was threefold higher (vs younger groups. Thus, modelled estimates ranged 3.42% ACEs, ≥70 years, 38.06% 18-29 years.ACEs are common across populations many countries. Understanding how they impact advice uptake medical interventions could play critical role the continuing response controlling future pandemics.
