Parent-teen concordance of selected adverse childhood experiences in a national sample of teenagers: Findings from National Health Interview Survey - Teen.
Article in Child abuse & neglect, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
backgroundParent-reported surveys are commonly used in child health research. However, few national surveys have examined concordance between parent- and teen-reported Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs).
objectiveTo examine concordance between parent- and teen-reported ACEs among a nationally representative sample of teens and understand sociodemographic correlates of concordance. PARTICIPANTS AND
settingData were collected as part of the National Health Interview Survey (NHIS), an annual nationally representative survey of the United States, with parent-reported interviews and its follow-back survey, the National Health Interview Survey-Teen (NHIS-Teen), a self-administered web survey of youth aged 12-17 years.
methodsParent- and teen-reported ACEs, and several measures of concordance (e.g. weighted Cohen's kappa, prevalence adjusted bias adjusted kappa (PABAK)) are presented. Unadjusted logistic regressions tested associations between sociodemographic characteristics and likelihood of concordance for each ACE.
resultsACEs prevalence based on parent report were lower compared to teen report (e.g. victim of or witnessed violence in the neighborhood, 6.5 % parent-reported vs. 15.5 %, teen-reported). Weighted Cohen's kappa statistics showed fair to moderate agreement (ks ranging from 0.27 to 0.53), with PABAK statistics showing slightly higher levels (ks ranging from 0.41 to 0.88).
conclusionsThere is discordance in ACEs reporting between teens and their parents, with parents less likely to report that their teen experience an ACE than teens are. This emphasizes the importance of collecting information directly from teenagers, which may help inform intervention work.
