We investigated the prediction of young adult service utilization and trauma symptoms from adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) and adolescent mental health symptoms in young women with dual child welfare and juvenile justice system involvement. A sample of 166 females (ages 13 to 17) was followed to examine the transition to young adulthood. Path models indicated that more ACEs were associated with poorer adolescent mental health. Adolescent mental health symptoms were associated with more young adult trauma symptoms and service utilization. Implications for service providers and policy-makers are discussed.
我们调查了在同时涉及儿童福利和少年司法系统的年轻女性中,童年不良经历(ACEs)和青少年心理健康症状对青年期服务利用和创伤症状的预测作用。对166名年龄在13至17岁的女性样本进行跟踪,以研究向青年期的过渡情况。路径模型表明,更多的童年不良经历与较差的青少年心理健康状况相关。青少年心理健康症状与更多的青年期创伤症状及服务利用相关。文中还讨论了对服务提供者和政策制定者的启示。
