Less is known about the association between childhood maltreatment and AAD among males, and the mechanisms that underlie this association in either gender. One explanation is that childhood maltreatment increases risk for AAD. An alternative explanation is that the same genetic or environmental factors that increase a child's risk for being maltreated also contribute to risk for AAD in adulthood.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec id=\"S0033291710000425_sec_a002\"><jats:title>Method<\/jats:title><jats:p>Lifetime diagnosis of AAD was assessed using structured clinical interviews in a sample of 3527 male participants aged 19\u201356 years from the Virginia Adult Twin Study of Psychiatric and Substance Use Disorders. The sources of childhood maltreatment\u2013AAD association were estimated using both a matched case\u2013control analysis of twin pairs discordant for childhood maltreatment and bivariate twin modeling.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec id=\"S0033291710000425_sec_a003\" sec-type=\"results\"><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>Approximately 9% of participants reported childhood maltreatment, defined as serious neglect, molestation, or physical abuse occurring before the age of 15 years. Those who experienced childhood maltreatment were 1.74 times as likely to meet AAD criteria compared with males who did not experience childhood maltreatment. The childhood maltreatment\u2013AAD association largely reflected environmental factors in common to members of twin pairs. Additional exploratory analyses provided evidence that AAD risk associated with childhood maltreatment was significantly attenuated after adjusting for measured family-level risk factors.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec id=\"S0033291710000425_sec_a004\" sec-type=\"conclusion\"><jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title><jats:p>Males who experienced childhood maltreatment had an increased risk for AAD.
