Background: Empirical studies have demonstrated associations between ten original adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) and multiple health outcomes. Identifying expanded ACEs can capture the burden of other childhood adversities that may have important health implications.
Objective: We sought to identify childhood adversities that warrant consideration as expanded ACEs.
