“…35,36 Recent evidence indicates that preterm children may be particularly sensitive to adverse social stimulation for a range of outcomes. 37 However, the statistical interactions of prematurity and being bullied were not found to be significant in our analysis providing little support for this interpretation.…”

What's Known on This SubjectPreterm children are at greater risk for cognitive and developmental problems in childhood and emotional problems in adolescence than term-born peers. There is also emerging evidence that they may be more often bullied by peers at school age. What This Study AddsPreterm children are especially vulnerable to being bullied at school and those bullied over a number of years are at highly increased risk of emotional problems in early adolescence.Reducing bullying may alleviate emotional problems in preterm children. and 6/7. The primary outcome was emotional problems in year 6/7. The effects of prematurity and bullying on emotional problems were investigated with regression analysis and controlled for sex, socioeconomic status, disability, and pre-existing emotional problems. RESULTS.Preterm children were more often bullied in both cohorts than term comparisons (BLS: RR 1.27, 95% CI 1.07-1.50; EPICure: RR 1.69, 95% CI 1.19-2.41). Both prematurity and being bullied predicted emotional problems, but after controlling for confounders, only being bullied at both ages remained a significant predictor of emotional problem scores in both cohorts (BLS: B (95% CI) 0.78 (0.28, 1.27); p<.01; EPICure: 1.55 (0.79, 2.30);p<.001). In the EPICure sample, being born preterm and being bullied just at one time point additionally predicted emotional problems. CONCLUSIONS.Preterm children are more vulnerable to being bullied by peers. Those children who experience bullying over years are more likely to develop emotional problems.Health professionals should routin...

“…Future research may identify whether multiple cognitive deficits are correlated to alterations in brain structure and altered connectivity patterns recently described (Bauml et al, 2014;Eikenes et al, 2011;Nosarti et al, 2009) and what neonatal and environmental factors may help some VP/VLBW to overcome the odds (Jaekel, Pluess, Belsky, & Wolke, 2014;Wolke, Jaekel, Hall, & Baumann, 2013).…”

Background. Children born very preterm (VP< 32 weeks gestation) and/or with very low birth weight (VBLW< 1500 gr; subsequently VP/VLBW) have been previously reported to have more cognitive impairment and specific executive functioning problems than term children; however, it remains unclear whether these problems persist into adulthood. This study aimed to examine general intelligence (IQ) and executive functioning (EF) of adults born VP/VLBW in comparison to term controls. Additionally, the effects of smallness for gestational age (SGA) and family socio-economic status (SES) at birth were investigated. Results. VP/VLBW adults scored significantly lower than controls in IQ and EF. There was a 1.16 standard deviation (SD) unit difference between the VP/VLBW and controls in FullScale IQ. VP/VLBW adults were found to have general and multiple cognitive problems rather than specific deficits in EF. SGA was not a significant predictor of cognitive impairment. Family SES had a significant impact on general intelligence in both VP/VLBW and term controls. The SES effects amounted to 1.13 SD units between individuals born into high versus low SES. Methods. The Bavarian Longitudinal Conclusions.No narrowing of cognitive deficits between VP/VLBW and term control adults to previous childhood assessments at 6 years of age was found. VP/VLBW adults do not outgrow their cognitive problems despite many receiving special educational support in childhood. Low family SES at birth has similar additive adverse effects on cognitive performance in VP/VLBW and term offspring.

“…Others have reported similar associations between specific parenting behaviors such as increased maternal scaffolding and better verbal intelligence in very low birth weight (VLBW; birth weight <1500 g) preschoolers (Lowe et al, 2014), and decreased negative maternal behavior and better overall cognitive outcomes in VPT toddlers (Shah, Robbins, Coelho, & Poehlmann, 2013). While higher maternal sensitivity assessed at 6 years has been associated with better academic outcomes for low birth weight (LBW; birth weight <2500 g) children at 8 years and early adolescence (Jaekel, Pluess, Belsky, & Wolke, 2015;Wolke, Jaekel, Hall, & Baumann, 2013), whether parenting behavior observed even earlier can predict school-age outcomes in VPT children is uncertain. Knowing whether early parenting has a sustained and direct effect on later child outcomes is important because many early interventions for VPT children utilize the parent-child relationship as the primary mechanism of intervention (Guralnick, 2012).…”
