摘要:This study was designed to explore developmental evaluation in healthy full-term,at risk preterm and full-term infants. Specifically the purposes of the study were to investigate Psychomotor Developmental Index(PDI) and Mental Developmental Index(MDI) based on Bayley Scales of Infant Development(1993). The subjects were 72 infants,24 each for healthy full-term infants,24 each for at risk preterm infants and 24 each for at risk full-term infants such as having neonatal asphyxia,hypoxic ischemic brain damage,respiratory distress syndrome. The data were analyzed through Kruskal-Wallis test and correlations to examine healthy full-term,at risk pre-term and at risk full-term infants. Results showed that there were significant differences among healthy full-term,at risk pre-term and at risk full-term infants in PDI and MDI. On the correlation with PDI and MDI,infants showed significant correlations. Early interventions for developmental improvement are required for functional outcome in these infants.
