| Core Tip |
This study investigates the association between childhood maltreatment and both subthreshold depressive symptoms (SDS) and major depressive disorder (MDD) in young and middle-aged adults. Our findings reveal that emotional abuse and neglect significantly contribute to depression risk across age groups, with emotional neglect showing a particularly strong association. This study extends previous literature by differentiating between SDS and MDD and underscores the need for trauma-informed care in depression management. Early identification of childhood maltreatment is crucial for preventing depression in at-risk individuals. |
