本文探讨了宫内接触1957年亚洲流感大流行对儿童发育的影响。结果数据由国家儿童发育研究（NCDS）提供，这是一项小组研究，所有成员都可能在子宫内暴露。流行病的影响是确定使用地理变异的替代措施的流行病。结果指出，胎儿健康冲击与儿童结局之间存在多个联系渠道：身体发育受到阻碍，但只有当母亲具有某些健康特征时;相比之下，对认知发育的负面影响在整个队列中普遍存在。
This paper examines the impact of in utero exposure to the Asian influenza pandemic of 1957 upon childhood development. Outcome data are provided by the National Child Development Study (NCDS), a panel study where all members were potentially exposed in the womb. Epidemic effects are identified using geographic variation in a surrogate measure of the epidemic. Results point to multiple channels linking fetal health shocks to childhood outcomes: physical development is impeded, but only when mothers had certain health characteristics; by contrast, the negative effects on cognitive development appear general across the cohort.
