- Title
Biological Poverty Line for Infants—Evidence and Implications.
- Authors
Luby, Joan L.; Rank, Mark R.; Barch, Deanna M.
- Abstract
This Viewpoint discusses whether protective and promotive interventions in brain development would benefit from identification of a "biological poverty line" during pregnancy and early childhood, above which the brain is informed and enhanced by experience in positive ways, and below which adverse experiences may influence the brain in ways that do not support long-term health trajectories.
