Keyword: Childhood Adversity

Abstract: Our research examined the relationship of parental incarceration during childhood and cluster C personality characteristics in adulthood, while examining resilience as a moderator. Results indicated that parental incarceration predicted avoidant behavior but not other cluster C personality characteristics, whereas other adverse childhood experiences and resilience predicted all cluster C personalities.
