... Among them, 61 were male and 59 were female. Participants were selected by convenient sampling technique and data were collected by using Adapted Bangla Version of Comprehensive Child Maltreatment Scale (CCMS) for Adults (Ferdous, Roy, & Islam, 2020), Bangla Beck Scale for Suicidal Ideation (BSS) (Uddin et al., 2013), and Adapted Bangla Version of Self-Compassion Scale (Habib & Naher, 2020).

The study aimed to investigate the relationship of childhood adverse experience, self-compassion and suicidal ideation among young adults in Bangladesh. A cross sectional study was conducted on 120 young adults from two public universities in Dhaka city. Among them, 61 were male and 59 were female. Participants were selected by convenient sampling technique and data were collected by using Adapted Bangla Version of Comprehensive Child Maltreatment Scale (CCMS) for Adults (Ferdous, Roy, & Islam, 2020), Bangla Beck Scale for Suicidal Ideation (BSS) (Uddin et al., 2013), and Adapted Bangla Version of Self-Compassion Scale (Habib & Naher, 2020). The obtained data were analyzed by using descriptive statistics, t-test and correlation. The findings reveal that all forms of childhood maltreatment: psychological maltreatment, physical abuse, witnessing family violence, neglect, and sexual abuse were significantly negatively correlated with self-compassion. Correlation for total maltreatment score and SCS was also significant (r = -.499, p < .01). Findings also reveal that each of the five subscales were significantly positively correlated with suicidal ideation. Moreover, there were significant positive inter-correlations among the five subscales of CCMS. The findings also reveal that there are significance gender differences of all forms of childhood maltreatment, self-compassion and suicidal ideation among young adults. The results were interpreted based on prior research. Findings of the research may help gaining insight about the harmful impact of maltreatment to develop appropriate preventive and intervention strategies.
... The adapted Bangla version of the Comprehensive Child Maltreatment Scale (CCMS) for Adults. For the investigation adapted Bangla version (Ferdous, Roy, & Islam, 2020) of the self-report tool "CCMS for Adults" was employed originally developed by Higgins and McCabe in 2001. This 22-item self-report tool measures adults' perceptions of their childhood experiences of potentially abusive and neglectful behaviors. ...
A large number of adolescents from at-risk societies penetrate adulthood with stern adversity in their pasts. The present study was designed to evaluate whether experiencing psychological maltreatment, physical abuse, witnessing family violence, neglect and sexual abuse in childhood had any significant relation with Perceived Social Connectedness (PSC) among Bangladeshi young adults, and to determine the individual and combined effect of five forms of maltreatment on PSC. Data were collected from 200 university students of above 18 years following purposive sampling technique through adapted Bangla version of the "Comprehensive Child Maltreatment Scale for Adults" and "Inclusion of Community in Self" scale. Results reveal that all forms of childhood maltreatment-psychological maltreatment (r =-.526, p < .01), physical abuse (r =-.434, p < .01), witnessing family violence (r =-.322, p < .01), neglect (r =-.347, p < .01), and sexual abuse (r =-.656, p < .01) were significantly negatively correlated with PSC. Among the five independent variables of the study, only three variables-psychological maltreatment, physical and sexual abuse were predictors of PSC. Beta values entail that sexual abuse (β = .525, p < .001) was the strongest predictor, psychological maltreatment (β = .304, p < .001) was the second strongest predictor and physical abuse was the third one (β = .147, p < .01), and in combination they explained 57.7% of variance in PSC among young adults. Sexual abuse alone explained 43.1% of variance. The present study will fill the currently existing knowledge gap on childhood experiences and community connectedness.
