Although the existing
research suggests diverse outcomes, scholars have documented that young children exposed to
trauma (for example, maltreatment and other forms of violence) are more likely than children who have not been exposed to
trauma to experience physiologic changes at the neurotransmitter and hormonal levels (and perhaps even at the level of
brain structure) that render them susceptible to heightened arousal and an incapacity to adapt emotions to an appropriate level.21 This emotional state increases their sensitivity to subsequent experiences of
trauma and impairs their capacity to focus, remember, learn, and engage in self - control.22
