Perinatal conditions and early assessment of low-birth-weight premature infants
The developmental assessment of 60 low-birth-weight premature infants, who had no major handicap, was compared with that of 30 term infants at a chronological age of 6 months. Both groups showed no statistically significant differences in mean scores for the Bayley Scales of Infant Development, but...

The premature infants' mental performance had a significantly inverse correlation with the number of days spent in hospital.
