      weight.

AB  - The objective of this study was to examine the impact of low birth weight and 
      preterm birth on a toddler's inattention and development, including cognitive, 
      language, motor, social-emotional and adaptive behaviors. A total of 105 toddlers 
      enrolled for the study; they were divided into four groups: 40 full-term and 
      normal birth weight (NBW, birth weight greater than 2500 g) toddlers, 24 moderate 
      birth weight (MLBW, birth weight between 2499 and 1500 g) toddlers, 20 very to 
      extremely low birth weight (V-ELBW, 12 between 1000 and 1499 g and 8 lower than 
      1000 g) toddlers, and 21 term toddlers who were recruited from a clinic of 
      developmental delay as the developmental delay at risk (DDR) group. The Bayley 
      Scales of Infant and Toddler Development-Third Edition (BSID-III) and Disruptive 
      Behavior Rating Scale-Toddler were used. The findings were as follows: (1) DDR 
      group performed worst in BSID-III; (2) although there were no statistical 
      differences among the NBW, MLBW, and V-ELBW groups in BSID-III, the lower the 
      birth weight, the lower the average performance, especially in language, adaptive 
      social behavior, and adaptive practical behavior; and (3) comparing the 
      inattention score, the DDR group was the poorest, normal and V-ELBW groups were 
      the best, and MLBW group was in the middle. In conclusion, low birth weight and 
      preterm delivery affected children's inattention and development of language, 
      adaptive social behavior, and adaptive practical behavior.
