Key Points

  • Childhood sexual abuse is linked to higher stress levels and increased tobacco use in young adults.
  • Individuals reporting high stress had 93% greater odds of experiencing childhood sexual abuse compared to those with low stress.
  • Analysis used cross-sectional data from the 2023 BRFSS among U.S. adults aged 18–34 to examine psychosocial impacts.
  • Findings suggest the need for focused prevention strategies addressing trauma and health disparities among young adults.
