Options to operationalise a #ChildhoodAdversity predictor variable or classify people into groups*, rather than classify ACEs into scores: -Cumulative risk model -Multiple individual risk model -Cluster analysis* -Latent class* -Recursive partitioning*
Great methodology for understanding ACEs - drop the cumulative risk, model the individual experiences together! Much more informative!
#BRFSS data are helping researchers develop ways to study the link between childhood stress and the health troubles kids may go on to develop as adults. https://t.co/TqGgzpql1h
