ABSTRACT Very preterm birth is associated with neurodevelopmental impairments and outcomes have not improved over the last decades. Insight in learning processes is important for the development of effective interventions. Implicit learning is of particular interest because of its independence from working memory processes that are affected by preterm birth. This study examined implicit learning abilities in 49 very preterm and 61 full-term 13-year-old adolescents. The degree of implicit learning was not different between groups. This indicates intact implicit learning abilities in adolescents born very preterm. Implicit learning strategies may be beneficial for skill learning in very preterm born children.

早产青少年的内隐学习能力

摘要 极早产与神经发育障碍有关，而且结果在过去几十年中没有改善。深入了解学习过程对于制定有效的干预措施很重要。内隐学习特别有趣，因为它独立于受早产影响的工作记忆过程。这项研究检查了 49 名早产儿和 61 名足月 13 岁青少年的内隐学习能力。组间内隐学习的程度没有差异。这表明非常早产的青少年具有完整的内隐学习能力。内隐学习策略可能有益于早产儿的技能学习。
