Abstract | The effect of childhood trauma on personality traits is explored in a quantitative study using 200 participants, who were divided into young adults (18-25) and adults (26-39), with gender and age differences considered to be significant components. The study uses the ACE Questionnaire and IPDE to investigate gender differences in trauma exposure and personality characteristics, while also exploring how childhood trauma affects one's specific personality traits. The results showed significant gender differences in personality traits, especially in adults. The ACE scores showed higher rates of paranoid, impulsive, anxious, and dependent traits in women than in men. Dissocial traits were also more prevalent among women. The most significant differences between young adult were dissocial and anxious characteristics. While correlation analysis showed that childhood trauma had a strong impact on certain personality traits, the effect varied by gender and age. The correlation between Trait 7 and childhood trauma was significant among adult men (r = 0.403, p = 0.001). However, there were no strong associations for young women. According to these findings, there is a complex correlation between childhood trauma and gender that necessitates more gender-sensitive psychological evaluation and interventions. |
