Description
For adults 18 and older who completed the Social and Health Experiences (SHE) self-administered questionnaire (SDOHELIG), ACETCHCHLD indicates how often an adult or someone at least 5 years older touch the respondent sexually, when they were under the age of 18. ACETCHCHLD was fielded as one of eleven questions about adverse childhood experiences included in the Social Determinants of Health (SDOH) supplement fielded via the 2021 SHE pencil-and-paper questionnaire. The SHE questionnaire was the first MEPS-HC questionnaire to be fielded using paper and web modes. Please see ACEMENTDEPEV for more information about the Adverse Childhood Experiences variables included in the SDOH supplement. Please see SATISFIED for more information on the SDOH supplement, including a complete list of variables fielded on the 2021 SHE.
