Does Resilience Mediate the Association of Adverse Early Childhood Experiences With Emotional and Behavioural Problems?

Objectives: To explore the role of resilience as a mediator in the association between adverse childhood experiences (ACE) and emotional and behavioural problems (EBP) among adolescents.Methods: We used data from the Slovak 2018 Health Behaviour in School-aged Children study, comprising 2,839 adoles...

We used multivariate linear regression performed on 5000 bootstrap samples adjusted for age, gender, family affluence to explore mediation of the associations between ACE (measured using the adapted Adverse Childhood Experience Questionnaire) and EBP (measured using the Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire) by resilience (measured with the Child and Youth Resilience Measure).Results: We found ACE [B = 0.78; 95% confidence interval (CI): 0.67|0.90] and resilience (B = −0.73; 95% CI: −0.79|−0.67) to be significantly associated with EBP. The association of ACE and EBP was mediated by resilience. The mediated indirect effect of resilience was ab = 0.25; 95% CI: 0.18|0.32.Conclusion: Resilience seems to play a mediator role in the relationship between ACE and EBP. Helping adolescents with ACE to build and use internal and external sources of resilience can decrease the negative impact of ACE on EBP.Miriama Lackova RebicovaMiriama Lackova RebicovaMiriama Lackova RebicovaZuzana Dankulincova VeselskaZuzana Dankulincova VeselskaZuzana Dankulincova VeselskaDaniela HusarovaDaniela HusarovaDaniela HusarovaAndrea Madarasova GeckovaAndrea Madarasova GeckovaAndrea Madarasova GeckovaAndrea Madarasova GeckovaDanielle E.
