Childhood trauma profoundly impacts individuals throughout their life affecting cognitive, emotional and social functioning. Trauma can distort one’s sense of self-worth and identity leading to feelings of shame, guilt and inadequacy. In this study a random sampling technique was used to collect a sample of 120 young adults from Delhi- NCR region. Childhood Trauma Questionnaire (CTQ), Buss- Perry Aggression Questionnaire and Brief Resilience scale (BRS) was administered through a google form online.
