Recovery from substance use disorder among adolescents: Roles of adverse and positive childhood experiences

This study examines the roles of positive childhood experiences (PCEs) and adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) on the recovery from substance use disorder (SUD) among adolescents ages 12 –17, utilizing data from the 2016–2019 National Survey of Children's Health (NSCH). On a sample of 256 adolescents who have had SUD, a hierarchical binary logistic regression analysis demonstrated that the cumulative PCEs significantly increased the odds of SUD recovery, whereas the cumulative A CEs did not decrease the odds.
