- W2279233417 abstract "The cognitive development of 43 children (23 girls and 20 boys) who had been adopted from Romanian institutions by B.C. families was evaluated. Adoptive parents were asked to describe their children twice, using the Revised Denver Prescreening Developmental Questionnaire. Parents described the children's abilities as they were when parents first met them in Romania, and as the children were at the time of an interview conducted in the adoptive homes at approximately 11 months post-adoption. At the time of first meeting, delays were exhibited in all areas of development (gross motor, fine motor-adaptive, personal-social, language), but at 11 months post-adoption most children less than 2 years I ' of age at adoption were no longer delayed in at least some of the areas, whereas children older than 2 years at adoption generally had not made up their delays. Twentythree children had been assessed by the Infant Development Programme of B.C., using the Revised Gesell Developmental Schedules; 15 of them had been assessed more than once. Analysis of their Gesell scores showed that progress was equal across areas, and that on average, children progressed more than one month developmentally for each chronological month spent in Canada. Correlations of Gesell DQs with quality of the adoptive home, as indexed by family income, parental education, and socioeconomic status, revealed significant positive relationships for adaptive, personalsocial, and language development. Malnutrition in the orphanage, as indexed by weight of the child for his or her age, was negatively correlated to Gesell DQs in all areas except fine motor development. Favoritism within the institution was positively correlated with Gesell DQs in all areas of development. Implications and future research are discussed. Acknowledgements I wish to acknowledge the support, encouragement, and constructive advice given to me by Drs. Elinor Ames and Patricia Kerig. I would like to thank Gillian Wark for her editorial help, and the members of the Romanian Adoption Research Project, as well as all the volunteer coders, for their time and energy. I extend my thanks also to all the families who adopted Romanian children, without whose help this project could not have been undertaken. I also wish to thank Douglas Morison, for his support and patience through my thesis. Table of" @default.
