Childhood trauma exerts enduring impacts on the physical and psychological well-being of individuals in adulthood, influencing their daily functioning. This study aims to investigate the impact of childhood trauma on stress recovery in adults, concentrating on heart rate variations during acute stress exposure.
A cohort of 126 participants completed the Childhood Trauma Questionnaire (CTQ) and underwent the Trier Social Stress Test (TSST) to elicit acute stress, with continuous heart rate (HR) monitoring for stress recovery assessment.
The results revealed a negative correlation between childhood trauma and stress recovery, prominently observed in instances of emotional neglect and abuse. Individuals with heightened childhood trauma exhibited protracted stress recovery following acute stress exposure.
Childhood traumatic experiences were associated with the recovery from acute stress, as indicated by heart rate indices. These findings contribute to the foundational framework for psychological interventions tailored to individuals with a history of childhood trauma.
童年创伤对个体成年后的身心健康产生持久影响，影响其日常功能。本研究旨在调查童年创伤对成年人压力恢复的影响，重点关注急性压力暴露期间的心率变化。
126名参与者完成了儿童创伤问卷（CTQ），并接受了特里尔社会压力测试（TSST）以引发急性压力，同时持续监测心率（HR）以评估压力恢复情况。
结果显示童年创伤与压力恢复之间存在负相关，在情感忽视和虐待的情况下尤为明显。童年创伤程度较高的个体在急性压力暴露后压力恢复时间延长。
心率指标表明，童年创伤经历与急性压力的恢复有关。这些发现为针对有童年创伤史个体的心理干预奠定了基础框架。
