Researchers linked difficult early life experiences with reduced quality and quantity of the white matter communication highways throughout the adolescent brain.

This reduced connectivity is also associated with lower performance on cognitive tasks.

Social resiliency factors like neighborhood cohesion and positive parenting may have a protective effect.

Results are published in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (PNAS).
