  • Adverse Childhood Experiences and Substance Use

    Open AccessMahsa P Yousefkhani, Xiafei Wang et al.ARTICLEJournal of Adolescence2026

    INTRODUCTION: While adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) are robust risk factors for adolescent substance use, the prospective neurocognitive pathways linking both cumulative and specific adversities to substance use remain understudied. This study tested a vulnerability model by examining whether executive function (EF) deficits mediate the link between cumulative and specific ACEs and substance use, and whether this pathway differs for deprivat…

  • Intergenerational Transmission of Corporal Punishment

    Open AccessYing Xu, Xiafei Wang et al.ARTICLETrauma Violence & Abuse2026

    Numerous studies have investigated the impacts of corporal punishment (CP) within families. However, there has been limited research on how these practices are transmitted across generations. This scoping review synthesized 18 peer-reviewed articles published between 2000 and 2023 from four databases, including PsycINFO, PubMed, PsycNet, and ProQuest. The findings revealed that 16 out of 18 studies showed a significant positive correlation in the…

This comparative scoping review aimed to synthesize and evaluate current evidence of differences in exposure to adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) among Multiracial individuals and both monoracial White and minoritized ethnic/racial groups. Studies were identified using predetermined search te…

  • Psychosocial strengths associated with higher functioning after interpersonal adversity in the United Kingdom and Ireland

    Open AccessMatthew Brooks, Victoria L Banyard et al.ARTICLEPsychological Trauma Theory…2026

    Some strengths are more helpful than others for overcoming adversity, and could serve as useful targets for intervention to mitigate the burden of interpersonal adversity. Further work is needed to understand the complexities of strengths on resilience in global contexts. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2026 APA, all rights reserved)

  • Longitudinal Associations Between Early Noncoital Sexual and Romantic Behaviors and Adolescent Depressive Symptoms

    Open AccessSara A Vasilenko, Kirstin L Clear et al.ARTICLEJournal of Adolescence2025

    INTRODUCTION: Research has linked early intercourse and romantic relationships to increased depressive symptoms, especially for female adolescents. However, less is known about the ways in which early noncoital sexual behaviors are associated with mental health. Thus, this study examined whether early kissing, sexual touching, and romantic relationships were associated with depressive symptoms, and whether these associations differed for male, fe…

  • Understanding the link between intimate partner violence exposure and children's self‐regulation

    Open AccessYing Zhang, Qingyang Liu et al.ARTICLEFamily Process2025

    Intimate partner violence (IPV), affecting approximately 16.3% of U.S. households annually, has detrimental effects on children who witness it, leading to psychological distress, developmental delays, and behavioral issues. Self‐regulation, a critical skill in managing attention, emotions, and behaviors essential for cognitive and social development, may be significantly impacted. The negative associations between mothers' experience of IPV and c…

    Open AccessSusan Yoon, Camie A Tomlinson et al.ARTICLETrauma Violence & Abuse2025

    Children from minoritized racial and ethnic backgrounds are at a higher risk for exposure to trauma and violence because of longstanding structural inequities; yet, these children can experience resilience by drawing on assets and resources across multiple levels of the social and physical ecology. Guided by the Resilience Portfolio Model, this scoping review aimed to synthesize evidence from the quantitative and qualitative literature on strengt…

  • Navigating identity

    Open AccessEve Neider, Xiafei Wang et al.ARTICLEFrontiers in Sociology2025Referências: 6

    Findings emphasize the importance of awareness and support from families, peers, and professionals.

Educating adoptive families and partners on racial and cultural dynamics can reduce isolation and strengthen support for transracial adoptees

  • Posttraumatic Stress and Mentalization in Accounting for Veteran Parents' Use of Corporal Punishment

    Open AccessOlivia D Chang, Xiafei WangARTICLEChild & Family Social Work2025Referências: 12

    Posttraumatic stress symptoms have been closely linked with the use of harsh parenting practices in veteran families. This study was aimed at assessing the potential added importance of parent mentalization in predicting the use of corporal punishment among US veterans. A hypothesized hierarchical regression model in which parent mentalization dimensions (i.e., prementalizing, over‐certainty, and interest and curiosity) were examined as predictor…

  • Adverse Childhood Experiences and Adolescent Early Non-Coital Sexual and Relationship Behaviors

    Open AccessXiafei Wang, Kirstin L Clear et al.ARTICLEThe Journal of Early Adolescence2025Referências: 3

    Adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) are linked with risky sexual behaviors. However, we do not know how various ACE dimensions influence adolescent sexual behavior, especially behaviors that are precursors to early sexual intercourse. Using the data from the Adolescent Brain and Cognitive Development Study, we conducted LCA on 13 ACE measures assessed at ages 9-11 and analyzed how these latent classes relate to romantic relationships and early n…

  • Co-occurring Early Adolescent ACEs and Associations With Later Peer Relationships

    Open AccessJoy Huanhuan Wang, Gabriel J Merrin et al.ARTICLEJournal of Youth and Adolescence2025Referências: 52

    Research indicates complex associations between adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) and adolescent peer relationships. ACEs are related to lower peer status, yet the links between ACEs, peer characteristics, and peer relationship quality are inconclusive. The current literature has several further conceptual and methodological limitations, including a lack of attention to ACEs’ co-occurring nature, the developmental timing of ACEs during adolesc…

  • Change Is Slow

    Open AccessNancy R Mudrick, Julia Blackwell et al.ARTICLEHealth Equity2024

    Introduction: The lack of disability-accessible medical diagnostic equipment (MDE) in primary care impedes the receipt of quality medical care by people with mobility impairments. Cross-sectional surveys and observational studies have found <40% of medical offices have disability-accessible examination tables or weight scales. Although government agencies and advocates recommend primary care acquisition of the accessible MDE, the rate of acquisit…

  • A Scoping Review on Adverse Childhood Experiences Studies Using Latent Class Analysis

    Open AccessXiafei Wang, Linghua Jiang et al.ARTICLETrauma Violence & Abuse2024

    Adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) studies reveal the profound impacts of experiencing trauma and hardships in childhood. However, the cumulative risk approach of treating ACEs obscures the heterogeneity of ACEs and their consequences, making actionable interventions impossible. latent class analysis (LCA) has increasingly been used to address these concerns by identifying underlying subgroups of people who experience distinctive patterns of co…

  • Adverse Childhood Experiences in Latinx Families

    Open AccessXiafei Wang, Fei Shen et al.ARTICLESocieties2022Referências: 11

    Racial/ethnic minorities are prone to adverse childhood experiences (ACEs), posing a concern over social justice. However, the influence of interracial family structure has been rarely discussed. Considering that 26% of Hispanic individuals form interracial marriages in the U.S., we need to examine whether interracial family structure matters for ACEs disparities in Latinx families. We hypothesized that there were differences in ACEs between intr…
