Abstract: The association of adverse childhood experience (ACE) with physical and mental well-being is predominantly examined using a cumulative ACE score. However, less is known how different dimensions of adversity (e.g., threat and deprivation) may uniquely predict children’s mental health and development. We examined (i) whether two aspects of ACE – threat and deprivation – are differently associated with children’s anxiety, depression, and flourishing and (ii) whether family resilience and connection index (FRCI) moderates these associations.
