ACE: Adverse childhood experiences, AAE: Adverse adulthood experiences
The mean AAE and ACE scores were created by summing the responses to 6 adversity items, scale between 0 – 6
The sample sizes presented in the F test column do not equal the total sample size (7952) because some participants had missing data on ACE items.
