The Effect of Early Adverse Experiences on Coping Strategies, Mental Health, Brain and Cognition

Our results are in line with the literature findings showing associations between early adversity and mental health, brain, and cognition. Importantly, this study highlights the importance of personality traits and coping strategies for these associations, showing that actively working on these coping strategies may buffer the negative impact of early adversity on mental health, brain, and cognition and promote healthy aging.
