Cover Story: Children commonly experience traumatic events (severe injury, violence, threat of death). These are associated with elevated risk of physical and mental health problems. Substance use risk personality profiles (impulsivity, sensation seeking, hopelessness, anxiety sensitivity) may be an important target to prevent trauma exposure, given associations with risky behavior, substance misuse, and injuries in adolescence. This study investigated associations between age 13 personality and the number of traumatic events experienced by age 18, and associations between traumas before age 13 and personality at age 13. Results suggest adolescents exhibiting high impulsivity or sensation seeking may be at greater risk of experiencing traumatic events, while early trauma exposure may contribute to the development of a hopelessness personality trait.
