| Research Abstract |
Infancy is an important period for infants born with low birth weights(LBW) to catch up with adequate developmental levels. Study 1 investigated developmental tendencies of LBW-children using Nursery Teacher's Rating Development Scale for Children (NDSC). In regard to Hyperactivity,Inattention,and Gross-Motor subscale scores, LBW-children under 1999g showed different developmental characteristics from normal-birth-weighted (NBW) children. Study 2 investigated LBW-children's developmental tendencies in public health services for 3-year-old children. The results indicated that LBW-children were more likely to test positive for developmental disorders than NBW-children. Specifically, LBW-children showed salient defects in interpersonal and language communications.In Study 3,a group-program which supports for mothers with LBW-children was developed. and then the effects of the program were measured. The results showed that the participants alleviated depression and PTSD symptoms.
