Birth weight percentiles (BWPs) are often dichotomized at the 10th percentile and show statistically significant association with later cognitive performance, for both preterm term-born children. However, research testing nonlinear associations between BWPs performance is scarce.To investigate culturally invariant, of gestational age performance.In this cohort study, participants valid neonatal data were combined from 4 observational cohorts, including Millennium Cohort Study, National...
Background Whether, and how, infant characteristics parenting quality interact is one of developmental psychology's key questions. However, whether specific interaction patterns replicate across cohorts or outcomes largely unknown. This study investigates are independent predictors (additive effects) child such that certain infants particularly suffer from poor (diathesis stress), benefit good (vantage sensitivity) both (differential susceptibility). Methods Individual participant data over...
To determine whether cognitive performance from infancy to adulthood is affected by being born small for gestational age (SGA), and if this depends on the SGA reference used. Furthermore, SGA's effect while considering effects of very preterm/very low birthweight (VP/VLBW), socio-economic status (SES) parent-infant relationship.A total 414 participants (197 term-born, 217 VP/VLBW) Bavarian Longitudinal Study.Small was classified using neonatal or fetal growth references. SES relationship...
Abstract The current study tested whether the reported lower wellbeing of parents after preterm birth, relative to term is a continuation pre-existing difference before pregnancy. Parents from Germany (the German Socio-Economic Panel Study, N = 10,649) and United Kingdom (British Household Study Understanding Society, 11,012) their new-born’s birthweight gestational age, subsequently categorised as very or low (VP/VLBW, < 32 weeks 1500 g), moderately/late (MLP/LBW, ≥ 37 weeks/≥ g 2500...
ABSTRACT: Objective: To determine whether the attention problems in adults born very preterm/very low birth weight (VP/VLBW; <32 weeks' gestation/<1500 g) or extremely preterm (EP; <26 gestation) are associated with specific executive general cognitive deficits. Method: Cohorts of VP/VLBW (the Bavarian Longitudinal Study [BLS]) and EP EPICure Study) participants were followed from to early adulthood, each also following a respective control group. Adult deficit hyperactivity...
Introduction Preterm birth is associated with an increased risk for impaired body weight gain. While it known that in prematurity several somatic and environmental factors (e.g., endocrine factors, nutrition) modulate short- long-term gain, the contribution of potentially control brain remains elusive. We hypothesized structure hypothalamic nuclei involved altered after preterm birth, these alterations being aberrant development into adulthood. Materials methods assessed 101 very (i.e.,...
Many colleges and universities are mandating the integration of more writing exercises into curriculum. Unfortunately, type assignment that has been given in upper division geology courses for many years is not well-suited to large introductory sections. Abstracting assignments using a “holistic” grading approach one solution. When students write abstracts on either assigned outside readings or special sections their textbooks, they develop concise style polish skills. Additionally, if...

Abstract Background Preterm birth is associated with an increased risk for impaired growth. While it known that in prematurity several somatic to environmental factors such as endocrine or nutrition modulate short- and long-term growth failure, the contribution of potentially control brain remains elusive. We hypothesized structure hypothalamic nuclei involved altered after preterm birth, these alterations being aberrant weight development into adulthood. Methods assessed 101 very (i.e.,...
(Abstracted from BJOG 2020;127(13):1598–1606) Understanding the impact of being born small for gestational age (SGA) on cognitive performance is complicated. While SGA has been associated with lower developmental and intelligence test scores (IQ) in childhood, studies its effects into adulthood are unclear.
Learning-disabled students have normal to high intelligence, but may not achieve at an expected academic level. Unlike the wheelchair-bound student, a learning-disabled student shows no outward sign of disability. The first step in assisting these is identify their special needs. Clues include difficulty with spoken and written directions, reading writing, sitting still. Memory problems also hinder some find it difficult reconstruct sequence events. Students visual-perception tend see...
