“…Language development could be affected by deprivation of maternal sounds during an important period of auditory system development (De Regnier, Wewerka, Georgieff, Mattia, & Nelson, 2002). Considering findings regarding the association between higher maternal education (at least graduation compared to middle/high school) and higher language score in LP group, they are consistent with prior studies showing a relationship between socio-economic status (SES) and language development (Wild, Betancourt, Brodsky, & Hurt, 2013;Landry, Smith, & Swank, 2002). For example, higher levels of maternal education, commonly used to indicate SES, were positively associated with higher mental developmental index as early as 18-22 months of age (Vohr et al, 2000).…”

“…For example, higher levels of maternal education, commonly used to indicate SES, were positively associated with higher mental developmental index as early as 18-22 months of age (Vohr et al, 2000). In addition, Wild et al (2013), using BSID-III at 22 months of CA, reported that in their preterm cohort lower SES was associated with lower scores on measures of receptive and expressive language skills. Taken together, these results suggest that low SES environment may expose vulnerable children to less learning experiences that may promote language development, for example sharing play activities, conversing, reading.…”

“…Thus, as exposed, it is essential that children born premature are monitored for early identification of the ones who will eventually have language difficulties, as the early intervention in those cases may reduce or eliminate the impact of such deficits in the development of this population, as highlighted in several studies (22,23,29) .…”

“…These latter matching variables were selected due to evidence from the literature that gender and maternal education may play a role in child language outcome. Specifically, male gender and low maternal education place a child at risk for later negative language outcomes [28,29]. Five females and 3 males were present in each group and maternal education consisted of 5 mothers with high school education and three mothers with baccalaureate degrees.…”
