这项研究调查了 35 名国际收养儿童的静息脑电图 (EEG) 和行为调整情况，这些儿童在 6 至 29 个月大期间摆脱了早期逆境。较高的收养年龄与儿童中期皮质功能的不成熟或非典型特征相关，基于较高的相对θ功率（4-6Hz）、较低的相对α功率（7-12Hz）、较低的峰值α频率以及较低的绝对β（13-20Hz）和伽马（21-50Hz）功率。更不成熟或非典型的脑电图光谱功率间接地将较大的收养年龄与童年中期问题外化的风险增加联系起来。这些发现补充了现有的证据，表明即使在稳定的收养家庭环境中生活多年后，早期不良暴露的持续时间也会对大脑功能和行为调节产生持久影响。研究结果强调，有必要尽量减少和防止儿童在早期护理中遇到逆境，尤其是在生命的最初几年。他们呼吁采取创新干预措施，支持国际收养的高危儿童的神经发育。
This study investigated middle childhood resting electroencephalography (EEG) and behavioral adjustment in 35 internationally adopted children removed from early adversity between 6 and 29 months of age. Older age of adoption was associated with more immature or atypical profiles of middle childhood cortical function, based on higher relative theta power (4–6Hz), lower relative alpha power (7–12Hz), lower peak alpha frequency, and lower absolute beta (13–20Hz) and gamma (21–50Hz) power. More immature or atypical EEG spectral power indirectly linked older age of adoption with increased risk for externalizing problems in middle childhood. The findings add to existing evidence linking duration of early adverse exposures with lasting effects on brain function and behavioral regulation even years after living in a stable adoptive family setting. Findings underscore the need to minimize and prevent children’s exposures to early caregiving adversity, especially in the first years of life. They call for innovative interventions to support neurotypical development in internationally adopted children at elevated risk.
