BACKGROUND: Adversity experienced during childhood manifests deleteriously across the lifespan. This study provides updated frequency estimates of ACEs using the most comprehensive and geographically diverse sample to date. METHODS: ACEs data were collected via BRFSS (Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System). Data from a total of 211,376 adults across 34 states were analyzed. The ACEs survey is comprised of 8 domains: physical/emotional/sexual abuse, household mental illness, household substance use, household domestic violence, incarcerated household member, and parental separation/divorce. Frequencies were calculated for each domain and summed to derive mean ACE scores. Findings were weighted and stratified by demographic variables. Group differences were assessed by post-estimation F-tests. RESULTS: Most individuals experienced at least one ACE (57.8%) with 21.5% experiencing 3+ ACEs. F-tests showed females had significantly higher ACEs than males (1.64 to 1.46). Multiracial individuals had a significantly higher ACEs (2.39) than all other races/ethnicities, while White individuals had significantly lower mean ACE scores (1.53) than Black (1.66) or Hispanic (1.63) individuals. The 25-to-34 age group had a significantly higher mean ACE score than any other group (1.98). Generally, those with higher income/educational attainment had lower mean ACE scores than those with lower income/educational attainment. Sexual minority individuals had higher ACEs than straight individuals, with significantly higher ACEs in bisexual individuals (3.01). CONCLUSION: Findings highlight that childhood adversity is common across sociodemographic, yet higher in certain categories. Identifying at-risk populations for higher ACEs is essential to improving the health outcomes and attainment across the lifespan.

LLM interpretation
This is a conceptual framework diagram illustrating the relationship between demographic characteristics, Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs), and lifelong outcomes. "Static Demographic Characteristics" (Gender, Race/Ethnicity, Sexual Orientation, Geographic Residence, and Birth Year) and "Dynamic Demographic Characteristics" (Income, Educational Attainment, and Employment) are positioned around a central block for Adverse Childhood Experiences. Arrows indicate that these factors collectively lead to "Lifelong Outcomes."

LLM interpretation
This is a choropleth map of the United States showing ACEs data collection dates by state. States are color-coded by year, ranging from 2009 (light green) to 2017 (orange), with grey indicating states where data was not collected. The legend identifies eight specific collection years and a category for missing data.
