Abstract
More than two thirds of children report experiencing a traumatic event by age 16, including abuse, violence, natural disaster, unexpected loss, or refugee experiences. Childhood trauma has been found to contribute to a myriad of negative outcomes not only in childhood, but across the lifespan. Unfortunately, these poor outcomes are even more pronounced by race/ethnicity and socioeconomic status. Given the strong predictive relationship between educational and mental health outcomes, it is important to understand inequities among students who have experienced trauma. The purpose of this systematic review is to a) synthesize the prevalence rates of trauma, by type of negative
