对儿童发育障碍的关注必须认识到贫困在该国许多儿童发育不良中所起的关键作用。儿童保护基金会（1986）在其众多研究中的一项中描绘了与生活在贫民区的贫困家庭相关的压倒性风险因素模式。其中更严重的后果是对美国城市中心的弱势黑人儿童造成的影响。 1986 年，该基金会报告了过去 5 年发生的变化：• 美国黑人儿童 (a) 在第一年死亡、(b) 早产、(c) 出生体重过低、(d) 母亲接受较晚或未接受产前护理、以及 (e) 没有工作父母的可能性是白人儿童的两倍。• 他们的母亲死于分娩、被寄养或死于已知的儿童虐待的可能性是白人儿童的三倍。
Concern about children's developmental disabilities must recognize the critical role that poverty plays in the maldevelopment of many of the nation's children. In one of its many studies, the Children's Defense Fund (1986) portrayed the overwhelming pattern of risk factors associated with impoverished families living in the ghetto. Among the more dramatic consequences are those for young, disadvantaged Black children in America's urban centers. In 1986, the Fund reported changes that had occurred over the previous 5 years:• America's Black children were twice as likely as White children to (a) die in the first year,(b) be born prematurely,(c) suffer low birth weight,(d) have mothers who received late or no prenatal care, and (e) have no employed parent.• They were three times as likely to have their mothers die in childbirth, be in foster care, or die of known child abuse.
