MAZZONI, Cecilia Clara; STELZER, Florencia; CERVIGNI, Mauricio Alejandro y MARTINO, Pablo. Impact of poverty on cognitive development: a theoretical analysis of two mediator factors. liber. [online]. 2014, vol.20, n.1, pp.93-100. ISSN 1729-4827.
Numerous studies have established the negative impact of poverty on cognitive development, by partially examining some mediator factors thereof. The objective of this article is to perform a theoretical analysis focused on home stimulation and nutrition as mediating factors. To do this we took the results of different studies which address this issue, developed since 2000. The results indicate that home stimulation would be a key mediator factor of the impact of poverty on cognitive development, while the effects of nutritional status would depend on the severity of the deficit, not being decisive in cases of mild or moderate undernutrition. We conclude about the theoretical and practical importance of deepen in the simultaneous study of the involved mediators factors.
