Education plays an important role in a child's development. In the article we will tell you how support can affect intelligence.
Research results
A new study published in the journal Intelligence has found that mother's support significantly influences a child's intelligence.
The work of scientists was aimed at a deeper study of this relationship by a large sample size and the elimination of factors that could distort the results.
Intelligence in general is determined by a number of factors: environment, genetics, training.
Maternal support is the environment in the first stages of a child's life.
The results of the study showed that the attitude of the mother plays a big role in the development of intelligence in a child at an early age.
However, earlier scientists found that this effect is erased in an adult and genetics begins to play an important role. Exactly why maternal support has a short-term effect on intelligence is still not known.
However, the level of general intelligence at an early age is also affected by the temperament of the child and how he responds to the efforts made by the mother.
