Studiu: Școala pe care o urmează copilul poate influența dezvoltarea creierului

A study from Stanford Graduate School of Education reveals that children attending higher-performing schools show accelerated white matter development in the brain. This association persists even when controlling for socioeconomic factors. The research utilized data from significant longitudinal studies and found that students in better schools appeared more mature in brain development than their chronological age suggests. While the study highlights the educational environment's potential impact on brain development, it does not imply that attending lower-performing schools guarantees neurological issues. The findings encourage further exploration of how educational settings influence cognitive growth.
