Expanding the ACEs index beyond the household: A gendered assessment of the adversity-delinquency nexus

Journal of Criminal Justice, 2024, vol. 92, issue C

Abstract: The current study addresses criticisms of the adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) model, specifically its limited focus on adversities outside the home and gender-based differences. We compare a diverse set of expanded ACEs to seminal household-focused ACEs individually, cumulatively, and in their relationship with delinquency by gender.
