Adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) and substance use disorder (SUD): A scoping review
Open accessAbstract
BACKGROUND The long-term negative effects of adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) and their impact on physical and mental health has been widely studied. However, research about the relationship between ACEs and substance use disorder (SUD) diagnosis in adolescence and adulthood is still scarce. Therefore, this scoping review was conducted to collect the existing research findings to explore the relationship between the experience of ACEs and the diagnosis of SUD later in life. METHODS The PsycINFO, Medline, Scopus, Web of Science, and Cochrane Library databases were searched. After identifying the records based on eligibility and exclusion criteria, 12 studies were finally selected for inclusion. RESULTS Most of the studies were conducted in the USA with adult male and female participants. All studies were cross-sectional in nature and assessed ACEs retrospectively. The main conclusions of the studies were that there is a higher prevalence of ACEs in the population with SUD than in the general population, and a positive association between ACEs and the development and severity of SUD in adolescence and adulthood. CONCLUSIONS It is difficult to make comparisons between studies and to draw solid conclusions because of the lack of standardized criteria for evaluating ACEs and due to the heterogeneity in the substance types examined. More research is needed to fully elucidate the underlying mechanism of the relationship between ACEs and SUD.

“In this sense, some of the studies have linked specific types of ACEs with an increased risk of SUD (Fuller-Thomson et al., 2016;Gomez et al., 2018;Kiburi et al., 2018;Levenson, 2016).”

The Discussion links specific ACEs to greater substance use: emotional abuse to tobacco use and physical abuse to current cannabis use. But this study examined associations among patients who already had substance use disorders, so its findings do not establish an increased risk of developing a disorder. (LLM, conf=0.84)

The Discussion says people with substance use disorders experience ACEs at a disproportionate frequency, and the Results report that 91% of this study’s participants had at least one ACE. But the Methods describe participants recruited during medical hospitalization, not people in addiction treatment, and the paper does not directly compare their ACE prevalence with that of the general population.

The Discussion reports that people with opioid use disorder entering a detoxification program had substantially higher ACE scores than those in general-population studies; nearly half had four or more ACEs, versus 15.5% in one community-based study. This supports the comparison for the study sample, but not the broader claim about people in treatment for any addiction. (LLM, conf=0.87)

“The relationship between ACEs and subsequent SUD development might be partially mediated by a coping mechanism or a self-mediation strategy throughout which victims deal with their feelings associated with childhood maltreatment (Huang et al., 2011).”

The Discussion proposes that substance use may be a coping or self-medication strategy for feelings associated with childhood maltreatment. But the Limitations section says the study did not investigate drug abuse or dependence in young adulthood, so it does not establish this mechanism for subsequent SUD development. (LLM, conf=0.88)

The authors state this as an assumption.
Recruiting a sample from an addiction treatment programme assumes the presence of an SUD diagnosis.
“and/or to carry out the study recruiting a sample from an addiction treatment programme (which assumes the presence of a diagnosis).”
The paper relies on this without support.
The prevalence of ACEs among people in treatment for SUD is high.
“Due to the high prevalence of ACEs among people in treatment for SUD, it is crucial to continue evaluating the mediating mechanisms between specific types of ACEs and SUD diagnoses and the course of these patients in SUD treatment.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
A language model drew the claims from the paper on 2026-10-11, under version 3 of the claim definition (model deepseek-v4.1-flash, prompt extract-v3).
A second model labelled each claim on 2026-10-11 (model jev-1.13-20260917, definition revision gold-guideline-v0.2).
Cited sources are checked with a language model’s help (gpt-6-sol).
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
