摘要: Abstract We investigated the relationship between home environment, nutritional status, and intellectual development in rural Philippine preschool children, using culture-relevant environment intelligence scales anthropometric measures of status. found a moderate development. Intellectual malnourished range. Multiple regression analyses indicated that variables provided more unique prediction children's than did socioeconomic status (SES) maternal intelligence, both physical psychosocial prediction. The could not be accounted for entirely by partial index genetic influence. Results suggested possibility identifying environmental experiences related differentially to particular psychometric abilities (i.e., specificity).
