Abstract:
Growing availability of research about addressing adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) has recently been embraced by the mainstream media and public. Social media, especially Twitter, provides a unique forum and platform for the public to access and share information about this topic. This research aims to better understand how the public is framing, sharing, and using research about ACEs on Twitter and to examine the information being commonly discussed about ACEs. This timeframe was determined based on key related events in the mainstream media. A total of 195,816 relevant tweets were obtained from the search. The weekly volume was approximately 1,864 tweets. Key topics included general use of the term ACEs (23%), trauma and ACEs (19%), long-term impact of ACEs (12%), preventing ACEs (11%), and short-term effects of ACEs (8%). The top two sentiments were fear and joy. This analysis provides insight to the ways the public is conversing about ACEs and related topics. This presents an opportunity to leverage social media tools to increase public engagement and awareness.
