1 Clinical Trials for Various Conditions
The purpose of this study is to understand reading abilities of children born preterm: their cognitive profiles, the neural basis of good and poor reading abilities, and the behavioral and neural factors that predict persistent difficulties. The investigators hope to learn * what specific skills correlate reading skills * if preterm children have different cognitive profiles than full term children with respect to reading * if cognitive skills measured in kindergarten predict reading ability in the second grade * if parts of the brain are associated with reading skill * whether brain characteristics in kindergarten predict reading in second grade.
