3.069). Main effects models showed that ACEs were positively associated with depression; social support subtypes were negatively associated with depression. The social support total and tangible support scales moderated the relationship between ACEs and depression. The main effects models showed total social support, emotional/informational, and social companionship association with anxiety were negative. Social support total, tangible, social companionship, and affectionate support moderated the relationship between ACEs and anxiety symptoms. Across all moderations, tangible support explained most of the variance; specifically, the effect of tangible support on depression/anxiety lessened when people experienced greater ACEs. This adds to our understanding of how specific types of support buffer the relationship between ACEs, depression, and anxiety. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2025 APA, all rights reserved)
