The First Seven Years

By: Sarah H. Broman,Ellen Bien,Peter Shaughnessy

Investigating and measuring risk factors and markers for low achievement in children, this unique volume studies children from gestation to age seven. This monograph evaluates the social, biological, and cognitive characteristics that served effectively as predictors and correlates of learning disabilities in normally intelligent children.

Retardation in Young Children

A Developmental Study of Cognitive Deficit

By: Sarah H. Broman,Paul L. Nichols,Peter Shaughnessy,Wallace Kennedy

Results of the Collaborative Perinatal Project report disclose the risk factors for mental retardation found in children examined from the prenatal period to age seven. Both biological and social risk factors are analyzed for both severe and mild cognitive deficits. The authors of this volume investigated the etiologies of the neurological subgroups of the retarded and reveal, through comparisons with non-retarded groups, important population factors related to normal cognitive development.

Preschool IQ

Prenatal and Early Developmental Correlates

By: Sarah H. Broman,Paul L. Nichols,Wallace A. Kennedy

Originally published in 1975, this volume reports a multidisciplinary, longitudinal study of the precursors of intelligence, as measured by Stanford-Binet IQ scores, of 4-year-old children. Over 26, 000 children (more than 12, 000 whites and 14,000 blacks) were followed from the prenatal period, and 169 prenatal and developmental variables were examined in relation to preschool IQ scores. Considered are the degree to which events during pregnancy and delivery, physical and psychomotor development in infancy and childhood, and certain major family characteristics were related to IQ scores. The large, heterogeneous sample of children studied prospectively and the wide range of biological and social variables investigated made this work of major importance at the time. The level of maternal education and the socioeconomic status of the family were major contributors to explained variance in IQ, and had larger effects among whites than among blacks. Other findings relate low IQ at age 4 to delayed motor and mental development in infancy. Many other factors thought to affect IQ scores, both individually and in combination, are reported, to make this a work of importance to all concerned with the neurological and mental development of the child.
