This study investigated whether the development of 5 year old preterm born children was appropriate for age and equivalent to or different from their peers who were full term at birth.At the adjusted age of 5 years, the development of 106 children born 5 or more weeks before term was compared with the development of 103 children who were born at term. This latter group of children were matched to the preterm group in sex,year of birth, birthplace, race and residential location. No cerebral palsy children were included in either subject group.The results indicated a significant difference between the two groups. Factors distinguishing the preterm children from their full term peers included small involuntary hand movements, less competent gross motor ability, poorer verbal performance and more variability in behaviour, postural response and balance. A higher than average incidence of minor motor, speech, behaviour and learning problems in early school years is probable.
