Abstract
The objective of study to investigate the impact of adverse childhood experiences on crime orientation among young adults, focusing on the mediating role of criminal thinking style. Adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) are linked to increased criminal behavior in adulthood. Understanding how ACEs influence crime orientation is crucial for developing prevention strategies. Data were collected from 300 young adults aged 18-29 years from Punjab, Pakistan, using purposive sampling. The study utilized the ACE scale, MCAA scale, and PICTS. Statistical analysis and mediation analysis were conducted using SPSS and the Process macro. ACEs and crime orientation were significantly positively correlated. Criminal thinking style significantly mediated the relationship between ACEs and crime orientation. Criminal thinking style mediates the relationship between ACEs and crime orientation among young adults. These findings have theoretical and practical implications for future research and interventions.
