Abstract
The current study uses data from 4 Waves of the Health and Retirement Study (N=1897; MAGE=66.52) to examine the effect of adverse childhood events (ACEs) on subjective age. HLM analyses reveal that individuals who experienced more ACEs, reported a younger subjective age than those who experienced fewer or no ACEs.
