No Association Found: Adverse Childhood Experiences and Cognitive Impairment in Older Australian Adults
Objective
This study aimed to investigate the relationship between childhood adversity and cognitive impairment in older adults.
Methods
We analysed data from 1568 participants aged 72–79 (M = 75.1, SD = 1.5, % male = 52.6%) from Wave 4 of the Personality and Total Health (PATH) Through Life Project. The outcome variable was the presence of mild cognitive impairment (MCI) or dementia, determined through a clinically validated algorithmic diagnostic criteria. Childhood adversity was assessed using a 17-item scale covering various domestic adversities such as poverty, neglect, physical abuse, and verbal abuse. Adversity was operationalised using cumulative analysis, dichotomisation (<3 adversities; 3+ adversities), and latent class analysis. Multiple logistic regressions were employed to estimate the association between childhood adversity and cognitive impairment, while controlling for covariates including education, gender, ethnicity, and APOE ε4 status.
Results
Our analyses revealed no significant association between childhood adversity and the presence of MCI or dementia across all tested models. Sensitivity analyses, exploring alternative scenarios, consistently failed to yield statistically significant findings.
Conclusion
In contrast to prevailing research findings, this study does not support a link between childhood domestic adversity and late-life cognitive outcomes. These results underscore the mixed results on adversity and cognition, highlighting the need for further research. Future investigations should consider the roles of potential mediating and protective factors within this complex relationship.
期刊介绍:
The JPAD Journal of Prevention of Alzheimer’Disease will publish reviews, original research articles and short reports to improve our knowledge in the field of Alzheimer prevention including: neurosciences, biomarkers, imaging, epidemiology, public health, physical cognitive exercise, nutrition, risk and protective factors, drug development, trials design, and heath economic outcomes.JPAD will publish also the meeting abstracts from Clinical Trial on Alzheimer Disease (CTAD) and will be distributed both in paper and online version worldwide.We hope that JPAD with your contribution will play a role in the development of Alzheimer prevention.
