Abstract：
Background: Adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) have negative impacts on women with children, including psychosocial and general health problems. However, there is limited research investigating ACEs identifying the characteristics of distinct subgroups according to the frequency of ACEs.Objective: Utilizing the national dataset of the Family with Children Life Experience 2017, this study aimed to classify patterns of ACEs based on the total number of types of ACEs and the types of predominant events, and to examine differences in general and psychological characteristics, as well as experiences of violence in adulthood among the classes identified.Method: A total of 460 Korean mothers raising infants or toddlers participated. Latent class analysis was performed to classify the patterns of ACEs, while t-tests and Chi-square tests were used to examine differences in general and psychological characteristics and experiences of violence between the ACEs subgroups.Results: The participants were classified into two subgroups: the \'high-ACEs group\' and the \'low-ACEs group\'. The high-ACEs group exhibited higher rates of child abuse, workplace violence perpetration and victimization, as well as lower self-esteem, higher depression levels, and increased suicidal thoughts compared to those of the low-ACEs group.Conclusion: The findings highlight the significant role of ACEs on the formation of an individual\'s psychological characteristics and their propensity to experience additional violence even into adulthood, as perpetrators and as victims. It is noteworthy how the influence of ACEs extends across generations through child abuse. These findings offer insights for developing interventions aimed at mitigating the negative effects of experiences of violence on mothers raising young children.
Two distinct subgroups were identified according to the frequency of ACEs: the ‘high-ACEs group’ and the ‘low-ACEs group’.Compared to those of the low-ACEs group, the high-ACEs group presented higher rates of child abuse, workplace violence perpetration and victimization, lower self-esteem, higher depression levels, and increased suicidal thoughts.The low self-esteem induced by ACEs may contribute to the amplification of psychological vulnerabilities and the occurrence of additional violent experiences even in adulthood.

摘要：
背景：不良童年经历(ACE)对有孩子的妇女有负面影响，包括社会心理和一般健康问题。然而,根据ACEs的频率确定不同亚组特征的ACEs研究有限.目标：利用2017年有儿童家庭生活经历的国家数据集，本研究旨在根据ACE类型的总数和主要事件的类型对ACE的模式进行分类，并检查一般特征和心理特征的差异，以及确定的班级中成年后的暴力经历。方法：共有460名韩国母亲抚养婴儿或幼儿。进行潜在类别分析以对ACE的模式进行分类，而t检验和卡方检验用于检验ACE亚组之间一般和心理特征以及暴力经历的差异。结果：将参与者分为两个亚组：“高ACE组”和“低ACE组”。高ACEs组表现出更高的虐待儿童率，工作场所暴力的实施和受害，以及较低的自尊心，更高的抑郁水平，与低ACE组相比，自杀念头增加。结论：研究结果强调了ACE对个体心理特征的形成及其甚至成年后经历额外暴力的倾向的重要作用。作为犯罪者和受害者。值得注意的是，ACE的影响是如何通过虐待儿童而跨越几代人的。这些发现为制定旨在减轻暴力经历对抚养幼儿的母亲的负面影响的干预措施提供了见解。
根据ACE的频率确定了两个不同的亚组：“高ACE组”和“低ACE组”。与低ACE组相比，高ACE组的儿童虐待率较高，工作场所暴力的实施和受害，较低的自尊，更高的抑郁水平，增加了自杀的念头.ACE引起的自尊心低下可能会导致心理脆弱性的扩大，甚至在成年后也会发生其他暴力经历。
