BASSO, Lissia Ana; MAIA, Cíntia Pacheco e; CHULA, Gabriela Villas Boas Pessato Demarchi  e  ARTECHE, Adriane Xavier. Preterm birth effect on cognitive functions in children: a systematic review. Psicol. teor. prat. [online]. 2016, vol.18, n.3, pp.98-114. ISSN 1516-3687.  https://doi.org/10.5935/1980-6906/psicologia.v18n3p98-114.

Cognitive deficits are related to preterm birth and many of these difficulties are first seen when children reach school age. Through a systematic review, this study investigates the empirical data about preterm birth effects on cognitive outcomes (Overall Intelligence Quocient and/or Executive Functions) in preterm children aged 9-12 years. Manuscripts published between 2004-2014, written in English, Portuguese or Spanish were selected. The search was conducted in PsycINFO, PubMed and Scopus. Altogether, 13 studies met the inclusion criteria. The results showed statistically significant differences between the preterm and term groups, as the preterm children had the lowest scores. However, in most studies preterm children had average scores on the Overall Intelligence Quotient. Clinical implications and methodological limitations are discussed.

Palavras-chave : prematurity birth; overall intelligence quocient; executive functions; children; school age.
