Landmark study tracks how Mom's age and job shape Kids' brains
NCT ID NCT00361829
Summary
This study aimed to understand how a mother's characteristics—like her age, whether she works outside the home, and if she's a first-time parent—affect her interactions with her baby and the child's later development. Researchers observed over 2,300 mother-infant pairs when the babies were 5 months old, then checked in on the children's language, play skills, and social abilities at 20 months, 48 months, and into adolescence. The goal was to gather knowledge about normal development, not to test a treatment.
