Abstract
The objectives of this study were to test whether the relation between cortical thickness in regions implicated in cognitive control (e.g., prefrontal cortex) and subcortical volumes in limbic regions responsible for affective and reward-related processes (e.g., ventral striatum, amygdala) varied as a function of repeated childhood assaultive trauma exposure.
