Summary

This study looks at whether premature babies (born before 34 weeks) during the COVID-19 pandemic (2020-2021) have different thinking, movement, and language skills compared to those born after the pandemic (2023-2024). Researchers will test about 120 children from a Spanish hospital using play-based assessments. The goal is to understand how pandemic-related changes may have affected early development.
