Understanding the Connection Between Childhood Trauma and Elder Abuse Risk Through Neuroscience
Linking Childhood Trauma to Elder Abuse Risks
New studies underscore that experiences of adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) are intertwined with higher risks of committing abuse against older adults. University of Tokyo's recent brain research reveals the neurobiological impacts of such trauma, influencing neurodevelopment across lifespan.
