Poverty confirmed to destroy brains of little children

[Charmander]

Some team of a Columbian university just published some research here http://nature.com/articles/doi:10.1038/nn.3983

(original article here: http://www.nature.com/news/poverty-shrinks-brains-from-birth-1.17227)

claiming that the cerebral cortex of children develops also depending on the income of their parents.

The stress of growing up poor can hurt a child’s brain development starting before birth, research suggests — and even very small differences in income can have major effects on the brain.

The brains of children from the lowest income bracket — less than US$25,000 — had up to 6% less surface area than did those of children from families making more than US$150,000, the researchers found. In children from the poorest families, income disparities of a few thousand dollars were associated with major differences in brain structure, particularly in areas associated with language and decision-making skills. Children's scores on tests measuring cognitive skills, such as reading and memory ability, also declined with parental income.
