We found that youth with greater exposure to trauma were
at an increased risk for internalising symptoms at ages 12–14 years, and this association was mediated by a higher
pubertal status at ages 9–10 years, but not by a faster pubertal tempo.

Using latent profile analysis, we found that pubertal development could be grouped into three different classes from ages 9 to 14: Early starters (9% of sample), typical developers (76%) and slow developers (15%)
