Beskrivning
Adverse Childhood Experiences and Their Life-Long Impact explores how these experiences influence cognitive, behavioral and social experiences in adulthood. The book conceptualizes the types of violence, abuse, neglect, and/or trauma that factor into ACEs. It also explores the psychopathological outcomes of ACEs among children, including neurodevelopmental and psychosocial mechanisms. By drawing on cross-cultural perspectives, the authors provide insight into the variations between the adversity and trauma children experience. Sections also cover preventive measures, risk factors and various forms of interventional treatment, making this book a core read for psychologists, physicians, social workers, educators and researchers in the field.

  • Provides a comprehensive framework for understanding adverse childhood experiences
  • Reviews the link between ACE and homelessness, substance abuse, and physical and/or sexual violence in adulthood
  • Highlights key components of cross-cultural perceptions on child abuse and neglect, including differences of gender
  • Explores options for prevention and intervention for those who experience adverse childhood experiences

Recensioner i media

*5 stars* "...[A] valuable reference tool for practitioners and students working in any field of counseling, social work, teaching at a higher institution of learning or in psychology or psychiatry... The writing style, text font, and layout of chapters make this an easy quick read and allow for deeper understanding throughout... [And] a gem for the fields dealing with the need to build resilience and understand why resilience may exist in some people as they grow into adulthood and not others." -- ©Doody’s Review Service, 2024, Sherie Huber, MS Education Admin, MS SEL (Benedictine University)
