- Abstract
Overview provides insight into the effect of childhood adversity on psychological health outcomes in individuals later in life. It discusses various negative experiences encountered during childhood, like exposure to abuse, neglect, and violence, highlighting their lasting effects on wellbeing. While socioeconomic factors are identified as significant contributors to the prevalence of childhood trauma, disparities in access to services increase the risks of crisis for marginalized communities. The overview highlights the important role of childhood adversity and its consequences for developing effective interventions and programs to support affected children and families. Additionally, it examines the intergenerational transmission of adversity, emphasizing parental modeling of unhealthy behaviors and cultural influences on coping strategies. The overview concludes by advocating for further research to advance under-standing and policies that discourse the extrinsic factors of health to prevent childhood adversities and enhance developmental out-comes.
