Moderation plot for ACEs, impulsivity, and social functioning, while controlling for depression symptoms. The solid line represents ACEs score one standard deviation above the mean, the dotted blue line represents ACEs score at the mean, and the light blue dotted line represents scores one standard deviation below the mean. There is a significant moderator effect of ACEs on the relationship between impulsivity and social functioning (B=-0.11, p = 0.023). Simple slopes analysis revealed that the relationship between social functioning and impulsivity was not significant for individuals with low ACEs (light blue dotted line) (b = -0.02, SE = 0.18, p = 0.92), but significant for those with high ACEs (solid bue line) (b = -0.59, SE = 0.16, p < 0.001)
