Abstract: Abstract:A growing body of studies are identifying associations between adverse childhood experiences and psychological and behavior problems among adolescents. The current paper provides a review of the existing evidence relating adverse childhood experiences to psychological and behavior problems among adolescents,as well as biological mechanisms including central nervous system,psychoneuroendocrine and psychoneuroimmune pathways underlying this association. Several directions for future research are proposed. Adverse childhood experiences should be considered as a priority in the prevention and control of psychological and behavior problems among adolescents.
