Across psychopathology domains, predictive accuracy was poor (AUC\u2009=\u20090.62\u20130.67). Using a high-risk cut-off of \u22654 ELAs, sensitivity values were low (0.14\u20130.23), while specificity was high (0.93\u20130.94). Similarly, positive predictive values were low (0.08\u20130.22), while negative predictive values were high (0.92\u20130.97).<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>ELA screening performs poorly at the individual level. While high-risk cut-offs may rule out poor mental health for individuals with fewer ELAs, it fails to accurately identify those with psychopathology. Predictive accuracy does not improve under conditions of collective stress or by focusing on direct\/severe ELA. Presently, ELA screening is unsuitable for guiding intervention allocation. Further research is needed to determine whether screening can be refined to improve mental health risk prediction.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Plain Language Summary Title<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Early-life adversity and adult mental health: Is Canadian screening getting it right?<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1177\/07067437261442418","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,4,20]],"date-time":"2026-04-20T13:17:51Z","timestamp":1776691071000},"page":"645-655","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Predicting Mental Health Risk from Early-Life Adversity: A Population-Based Study of Canadian Adults: Pr\u00e9diction du risque pour la sant\u00e9 mentale li\u00e9e \u00e0 l\u2019adversit\u00e9 en d\u00e9but de vie : \u00c9tude fond\u00e9e sur une population d\u2019adultes canadiens"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"71","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-1196-6962","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Dylan","family":"Johnson","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"McMaster University"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-2999-1736","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Victoria","family":"Parker","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"University of Toronto"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-4643-8465","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Mark","family":"Wade","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"University of Toronto"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026,4,20]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_3_2_2_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.chiabu.2020.104895"},{"key":"e_1_3_2_3_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S2468-2667(17)30118-4"},{"key":"e_1_3_2_4_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.chiabu.2023.106091"},{"key":"e_1_3_2_5_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1080\/15332985.2019.1625476"},{"key":"e_1_3_2_6_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3122\/jabfm.2022.04.210454"},{"key":"e_1_3_2_7_2","unstructured":"Centre for Addiction and Mental Health.
