Divorce and separation represent the dissolution of one of the most significant attachment bonds during adulthood. Previous research has shown that divorced individuals often face heightened mental health challenges. However, this overarching view, focusing on average effects, fails to capture the diverse responses to this life transition, and the identification of profiles of psychological adaptation to divorce-separation remains limited. The present cross-sectional study aimed to identify latent profiles of psychological adaptation to divorce and separation using a person-centered approach. A sample of 938 Chilean adult participants completed specific measures of psychological adaptation and mental health indicators. Latent profile analysis revealed five distinct profiles: two with positive outcomes and three experiencing persistent difficulties. Factors such as attachment insecurity, forgiveness of the former partner, and emotion regulation difficulties were linked to profile membership, along with demographic and divorce-related variables. These findings offer valuable insights to tailor support services for individuals navigating divorce or separation.

Postpartum depression (PPD) is a major public health issue, significantly affecting the health and well-being of women and children. Research indicates a strong link between adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) and increased PPD rates. While the Adverse Childhood Experiences Questionnaire (ACE-Q) is widely used for ACE screening, the Childhood Traumatic Events Scale (CTES) may better capture trauma items not covered by the ACE-Q, along with the timing and severity of ACEs.
