童年的逆境可能对心理健康产生有害影响。据报道，退伍军人群体中这种逆境的水平有所提高。复原力的水平可能具有保护作用，但早期的不利经历可能首先影响复原力的发展。本研究的目的是确定类的童年逆境中居住在北方爱尔兰（NI）的英国退伍军人，并探讨弹性水平和调解作用的弹性可能发挥以下经验，心理健康。该研究利用了来自北方爱尔兰退伍军人健康和福利研究（n = 656）的数据。所有参与者都是英国武装部队退伍军人，他们是NI的居民，平均年龄为56岁（586名男性，70名女性）。四个童年逆境类被揭示，几乎一半的样本经历早期的不良经历。经历过一系列逆境的人，特别是那些与虐待有关的人，更有可能患有PSTD，抑郁症和焦虑症，并且弹性水平较低。然而，那些经历过与家庭功能障碍有关的逆境的人与低风险人群的弹性水平相似，初步表明一些逆境可能具有保护作用。调解分析显示，具有较高复原力水平的退伍军人在童年经历负面经历后不太可能出现心理问题。该研究强调了在退伍军人中促进复原力建设方案的重要性，特别是在那些童年遭受虐待的人中。英国武装部队退伍军人的弹性水平提高，不太可能有心理问题后，负面的童年经历。
Childhood adversities can have a deleterious impact on mental health. Elevated levels of such adversities have been reported in veteran populations. Levels of resilience may be protective but early adverse experiences may impact on the development of resilience in the first instance. This study aims to identify classes of childhood adversities among UK military veterans residing in Northern Ireland (NI) and explore levels of resilience and the mediating role resilience may play following such experiences in relation to mental health. The study utilizes data from the Northern Ireland Veterans’ Health and Wellbeing Study (n = 656). All participants were UK Armed Forces veterans who were residents of NI with an average age of 56 (586 males, 70 females). Four childhood adversity classes were revealed, with almost a half of the sample experiencing early adverse experiences. Individuals who experienced a range of adversities, particularly those related to maltreatment were more likely to have PSTD, depression and anxiety disorders and lower levels of resilience. However, those who experienced adversity related to family dysfunction had similar levels of resilience as the low risk class, suggesting tentatively that some adversity may be protective. Mediation analyses revealed that veterans with elevated levels of resilience were less likely to have psychological problems following negative childhood experiences. The study highlights the importance of promoting resilience building programmes among military veterans, especially among those who experienced maltreatment as a child. UK Armed Forces veterans with elevated levels of resilience were less likely to have psychological problems following negative childhood experiences.
