Abstract

With a focus on identifying intervention targets, we explored potential moderators of the link between childhood maltreatment and a common inflammatory marker, C-reactive Protein (CRP). These included health behavior moderators, such as sleep, and emotion regulation tendencies, such as self-control, emotional control, and anger expression.
