Abstract

The purpose of this study was to determine the contributions of infant characteristics and early family environment to the incidence of emotional and behavioral problems for low birth weight children. Data were collected from ethnically diverse families of 110 children who had a birth weight of less than 2500 grams. Results of stepwise regression analysis indicated that inadequate family income, troubles with family cohesion and adaptability, and an infant's insecure attachment to the mother accounted for 48% of the variance in the incidence of emotional-behavioral problems for children. None of the infants' characteristics, including birth weight, perinatal morbidity, cognitive ability and social competence, entered the regression model. Findings suggest that family environment is a key factor in the low birth weight child's risk for early mental health problems.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
