Investigating The Relationship Between Adverse Childhood Experience And Socio Economic Status Among Young Adults

Year: 2025

Type: article

Abstract: The association between young adults' socioeconomic status (SES) and adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) is examined in this study using a correlational research approach. Data was gathered using an easy-to-use Google Form that includes the Adverse Childhood Experiences Questionnaire (ACE-Q) to measure ACEs and demographic data to estimate SES. The sample of participants was recruited through social media channels. JASP software was used to perform statistical analysis, such as the Shapiro-Wilk test for normality and Pearson r correlation to assess the direction and strength of the association between the variables. The results showed a negative relationship between adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) and lower socioeconomic status, indicating that those from lower SES backgrounds are more likely to report having had ACEs.
