Article Synopsis
- - The study explored how parental adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) impact their children's sleep problems, examining the roles of parental psychological distress and harsh discipline as mediators.
- - A research sample of 617 children aged 3 years and their parents in Wuhu, China participated in two online surveys, assessing ACEs, psychological distress, harsh discipline, and sleep issues over time.
- - Findings revealed that parental psychological distress and harsh discipline, particularly psychological aggression, mediate the effects of parental ACEs on children's sleep problems, indicating the need for targeted interventions for affected parents.
Article Synopsis
- * It explores the mediating roles of psychological distress and harsh discipline in this relationship through data collected from parents and their three-year-old children over two time points.
- * Results indicate that parental ACEs increase children's PMU, and that both psychological distress and harsh discipline play significant roles in this connection, suggesting that interventions should consider these factors.
Maternal adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) may lead to increased behavioural problems in children. However, the mediating roles of psychological distress and corporal punishment, two common mechanisms underlying the intergenerational transmission of maternal ACEs, in these relations have not been examined in Chinese samples. Multigenerational homes (MGH) are the dominate living arrangement in China; however, limited research focuses on the effects of MGHs on the intergenerational transmission of maternal ACEs.

Young children are neglected in household chaos research and suffer from the negative outcomes of households in China. However, few studies have focused on the relationship between household chaos and social withdrawal in young Chinese children and the chain mediating effect of EF and receptive language ability.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFBackground: The negative effects of maternal adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) may have a direct intergenerational effect on a child's behavior. This topic has been widely examined, but few studies have explored the underlying mechanism and protective factors influencing maternal ACEs and offspring's behavioral problems in the Chinese context.
Objective: This study aims to investigate the mediating effect of emotional dysregulation on the relationship between maternal ACEs and offspring behavior and examine whether self-compassion can moderate this association.
