Mattison, Gregory J. Benner, and Skip Kumm  \nMental, emotional, behavioral, and physical health are interrelated and stem from a set of  \ncommon conditions (O’Connell, Boat, and Warner, 2009) . Adverse childhood experiences  \n(ACEs) is the term given to describe traumatic events that occur before adulthood and may  \nnegatively impact a student’s long-term mental, emotional, and behavioral outcomes. The  \nlandmark Kaiser ACE Study examined the relationships between childhood ACEs and physical health, mental, emotional, and behavioral outcomes in adulthood (Felitti et al., 1998; Anda et al.,  \n2006) . Over 17,000 people between 1995 and 1997 received physical exams and completed  \nconfidential surveys containing information about their childhood experiences and current health status and behaviors. The ACE study looked at three categories of adverse experience: childhood  \nabuse (i.e., emotional, physical, and sexual abuse); neglect (i.e., including both physical and  \nemotional neglect); and household challenges (i.e., growing up in a household where there was  \nsubstance abuse, mental illness, violent treatment of a mother or stepmother, parental  \nseparation/divorce, or a member of the household in prison) . Respondents received an ACE  \nscore between zero and 10 based on how many of the 10 types of adverse experiences they had  \nexperienced (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention [CDCP], 2019) . The ACE study  \nshowed dramatic links between adverse childhood experiences and risky behavior, psychological  \nissues, serious illness, and the leading causes of death. For example, people with six or more  \nACEs died nearly 20 years earlier on average than those without ACEs (Centers for Disease  \nControl and Prevention, 2019) . Moreover, 61% of adults had at least one ACE, and 16% had four  \nor more types ofACEs (Merrick et al","cbCaiilMtKYsZO9H","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaiilMtKYsZO9H","pdf",322914,"English","# Introduction\n## Adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) and long-term outcomes\n## Categories of adverse experiences\n## Research evidence and key findings","[{\"question\":\"What are ACEs and why are they relevant to student mental and behavioral outcomes?\",\"answer\":\"Adverse childhood experiences describe traumatic events occurring before adulthood that may negatively affect long-term mental, emotional, and behavioral outcomes.
