Although very preterm birth and very low birthweight are recognized risk factors for longer-term developmental difficulties, there is a wide spectrum of outcomes for children and adolescents born preterm. Biological and social variables have the potential to explain this variability. Although current understanding of these influences and how they interact is incomplete, perinatal factors are related to permanent neurosensory impairments, such as cerebral palsy, blindness, and deafness. Cognitive and academic outcomes are variably associated with biological and social variables across development, and the most robust correlates of behavior and mental health difficulties include early behavioral problems and family influences.
