ANROWS Research report, Issue 7, April 2022
After decades of research on the long-term consequences of
child maltreatment, the bulk of our knowledge continues
to be derived almost entirely from a now rather dated
10-item checklist of dichotomous (never/ever) variables
(CDC, 2019; Felitti et al., 1998). This project extends our
understanding of childhood adversity by examining the
timing, placement and temporal ordering of several early
developmental experiences known to be empirically correlated
with subsequent involvement in the juvenile justice system.
Our sample is drawn from a population of young people
(aged 10–17 years) adjudicated for sexual offences against
women and children and referred for treatment between
2004 and 2018.
This project delves deeper than simply the presence or
absence of ACEs; rather, it “zooms in” on the specific negative
experiences of 20 youths adjudicated for sexual offences
against women and children. We provide much more detail
than the initial 10-item checklist and consider the onset,
co-occurrence and temporal ordering of those experiences.
We develop a technique to visualise the nature, extent and
sequence of the ACEs in their lives. (From the Executive summary). The second and final report from this project is also available (#7760). Record #7860
