“…Early initiation of drug use is arguably one of the most critical risk factors for abuse, dependence, and other substance‐related problems in adulthood and has been shown to be influenced by shared genetic and environmental vulnerability factors . Accordingly, the vulnerability for early substance use in adolescents is increased by child adversity and trauma, as well as shared and drug‐specific genetic factors …”

“…Early initiation of drug use is arguably one of the most critical risk factors for abuse, dependence, and other substance-related problems in adulthood 15,16 and has been shown to be influenced by shared genetic and environmental vulnerability factors. [17][18][19][20][21][22] Accordingly, the vulnerability for early substance use in adolescents is increased by child adversity and trauma, [22][23][24][25][26][27][28][29][30] as well as shared and drug-specific genetic factors. [31][32][33] A growing body of evidence indicates that the risk of substance use (and particularly its early onset) is influenced by the gene encoding monoamine oxidase A (MAOA).…”

“…Third, literature on ACEs suggests multiple pathways through which childhood adversity may affect neuroinflammatory systems. Among college students, childhood adversity is associated with diet, substance use, sexual risky behaviors, and sleep (Brett, Espeleta, Lopez, Leavens, & Leffingwell, ; Forster, Grigsby, Rogers, & Benjamin, ; Wiehn, Hornberg, & Fischer, ; Windle et al, ). Childhood adversity also affects the quality of current relationships, such as social support and intimacy with significant others (Miller et al, 2013).…”

Despite the growing interest in adverse childhood experiences and biomarkers, less attention has been paid to multiple biomarkers as representing interrelated systems among college students. Guided by the neuroinflammatory pathway hypothesis, the current project takes the initial step in examining the link between three types of childhood adversity and biomarkers of neuroplasticity (brain-derived neurotropic factor [BDNF]) and low-grade inflammation (C-reactive protein [CRP]) in an overarching model and whether this link may differ in men and women. Undergraduate students (n = 85) were recruited through multiple departments from a state university. The participants responded to the detailed online survey questionnaire on childhood adversity and provided one blood sample via venous blood draw. Given that CRP and BDNF represent two interrelated systems, structural equation models were considered the most suitable for the analyses. The findings partially support neural and inflammatory pathways, such that childhood adversity and particularly family dysfunction have a significant positive effect on BDNF (b = 30.41, p < .01). The link between family dysfunction and CRP was stronger in female students (b = 0.57, p < .05). Results suggest that interventions for college students with family dysfunctions may need to target different physiological and behavioral outcomes for male and female students.

The method of obtaining the integral indicator of the deviant behavior of minors, which allows to numerically evaluate and characterize its indicator, in order to perform further detailed preventive work, depending on the nature and extent of deviation is examined in the article. The research is conducted for the purpose of forming the universal approach to obtaining the numerical characteristic describing the hardly formalizable phenomenon (deviant behavior) using characteristic vector of weight coefficients of criteria for the personality evaluation. Methodology. The study is based on analysis and generalization of scientific and theoretical sources, as well as the conducted quantitative experiment. For forming of indistinct and multiple indicator of deviant behavior of minors the modified method of the analysis of hierarchies of T. Saati is used. Results. To form the target level of the juvenile deviant behavior evaluation the methods, based on cluster-hierarchical methods for obtaining generalized indicator, are preferable. The indistinct and multiple indicator is more sensitive to distinction of characteristics of the compared objects, than determined and also considers extent of influence of criterion and group on indicator of the general level of deviation that positively affects the accuracy of calculation of required indicator. Conclusions. Use of the generalized indicator of deviance of minors will allow to estimate well and visually degree and the nature of deviation in behavior that will allow to reveal timely deviations in behavior at early stages for the purpose of carrying out effective scheduled maintenance and also to strengthen control of the teenagers who are registered in divisions for minors that, undoubtedly, will raise possibilities of law-enforcement bodies on prevention of crimes among young people.
