**ACE Study Publications**

**March, 2012**

Dear Colleague:  Below is a list of publications from the Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACE) Study, plus pending articles.  We have begun analysis in the prospective arm of the Study, which will show the biomedical, emotional, and economic consequences in medical care of abusive childhood experiences, on average a half-century earlier.  A book for general readership is planned.  You may track future publications or read abstracts by using the free National Library of Medicine web site, Pub Med, at http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/query.fcgi and entering *Anda* or *Felitti* under ‘author name’.  Using Google Scholar also works very well.  Information of interest may be found at the web site www.ACEsTooHigh.ning.com, and at the CDC web site: http://www.cdc.gov/NCCDPHP/ACE/  At the latter site, abstracts may be read by clicking on titles.
