Abstract

This comprehensive longitudinal study explored for the first time the interrelations between neonatal brainstem abnormalities, focused attention (FA), and learning—following a preterm cohort (N = 175; 46.3% female; predominantly White) from birth (2003–2006) to 17 years. The findings indicated that FA during early childhood was associated with language outcomes in toddlerhood (n = 131) and academic and attention self-report indices in late adolescence (n = 44). Pilot assessments indicated that FA at 17 years (n = 25) was also associated with concurrent academic and attention functioning. Structural equation modeling analyses revealed that neonatal brainstem functioning, manifested in auditory brainstem response patterns, was associated with early-life FA competence, which affected learning development. Implications underscore the essential role of early brainstem function and FA in shaping childhood learning trajectories.
从幼儿期到青春后期,集中注意力在学习中的作用:早产后新生儿脑干受损的影响
这项综合纵向研究首次探讨了新生儿脑干异常、集中注意力(FA)和学习之间的相互关系,并对早产儿群体(人数=175;46.3%为女性;主要为白人)从出生(2003-2006年)到17岁的整个过程进行了跟踪研究。研究结果表明,幼儿期的注意力缺陷与幼儿期的语言成果(131 人)以及青春期后期的学业和注意力自我报告指数(44 人)有关。试点评估表明,17 岁时的 FA(n = 25)也与同时出现的学习和注意力功能相关。结构方程模型分析表明,表现为听觉脑干反应模式的新生儿脑干功能与早期 FA 能力相关,而早期 FA 能力会影响学习发展。这凸显了早期脑干功能和FA在塑造儿童学习轨迹中的重要作用。
