Figure 1 Scores on subscales of Intelligence and Development Scales (IDS).IDS subscale scores have a mean (M) of 10 with a standard deviation (SD) of 3. The test scores of children with very low birth weight (VLBW <1500 g) or extremely low birth weight (ELBW <1000 g) and with normal birth weight (NBW ≥2500 g) were not below the standardized average. NBW children performed significantly better than their VLBW/ELBW counterparts on all IDS subtests evaluated. The figure was prepared in Microsoft Excel, version 2112, Microsoft 365.
