198 名孕妇在怀孕期间经历的变化的报告表明,认知变化并不显着,因为只有 2% 的女性自发提到这种变化。当具体询问认知变化时,大多数人表示没有变化,尽管大多数报告变化的人表示情况变得更糟。在这方面,他们与最近离家的 132 名学生不同。在第二项研究中,13 名女性被要求对怀孕期间和产后的一系列认知功能进行评分。他们对某些认知方面的评分低于一组非孕妇。他们还报告了更多的认知失败,并很容易提供了认知障碍的例子。看来,认知缺陷对孕妇来说并不显着,但如果出现提示,女性在怀孕期间和产后第一年都会报告记忆力、注意力、思维清晰度和注意力方面的损害。版权所有 (C) 2002 John Wiley Sons, Ltd.
The reports from 198 pregnant women of changes experienced during pregnancy suggested that cognitive changes are not salient since only 2% of women spontaneously mentioned such changes. When asked specifically about cognitive changes, the majority reported no change although most who reported a change indicated it was for the worse. In this respect they differed from a group of 132 students who had recently left home. In a second study, 13 women were asked to rate a range of cognitive functions during pregnancy and the postpartum period. Their ratings for certain aspects of cognition were lower than those of a group of non-pregnant women. They also reported more cognitive failures and readily provided examples of perceived impairments in cognition. It would appear that cognitive deficits are of low salience to pregnant women but, if prompted, impairments in memory, concentration, clarity of thought and attention will be reported by women both during pregnancy and the first-year postpartum.
