“…These deficits contribute additional morbidity in this population, with differences between EP/ELBW and term children remaining significant after adjustment for IQ (Aarnoudse-Moens, Smidts, et al, 2009;Anderson & Doyle, 2004;Marlow et al, 2007;Taylor, Klein, Minich, et al, 2000). Behavioral and psychiatric morbidity, particularly attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) symptoms and social and emotional problems, are also common in EP/ELBW survivors (Bhutta et al, 2002;Farooqi, Hagglof, Sedin, Gothefors, & Serenius, 2007;Hack et al, 2009;Hille et al, 2001;Johnson et al, 2010;. It is thus not surprising that EP birth has an adverse effect on later educational attainment.…”
