Summary, etc. | A study was conducted to find the influence of nutritional status on the intelligence of children of various age groups (3 years to 15 years) from different schools that come under NES block, Trivandrum Rural. A survey was conducted to assess socio-economic status and dietary pattern of the families. The nutritional status of the children was assessed by anthropometric, clinical and biochemical techniques. Information regarding health and behavioural problems at home were also collected. An assessment of the children by the respective class teacher was also included to throw light on the child’s intellectual, social and behavioural pattern at school. An intelligence test (Mathew test of Mental Abilities) was administered to assess the intelligence of the selected children and the results were analysed statistically. The results of the study indicated that no special attention was given in the diets of the children and the diet on an average was found deficient in iron and vitamin A. Almost all infectious diseases and behavioural problems like nail biting , bed wetting, thumb sucking were very common among these children. An analysis of anthropometric data revealed that height in proportion to age was nearly equal to standards prescribed while weight for age was slightly less. Clinical and biochemical studies revealed that all the preschool children and 85 percent of female children of high school level were anaemic. The results of the above study has proved that the intelligence of children was influenced by nutritional as well as non- nutritional factors. Major non-nutritional factors identified were educational level of parents, family size and type and socio – economic status of the family. |
