Advances and redirections in understanding effects of fetal drug exposure
Article Abstract:
Greater methodological rigor needs to be introduced in the design of outcome studies to assure the integrity of future findings. To better identify vulnerable populations, greater specification of covariates of exposures that influence child outcome is needed. The improvement of quantifiable and self-report measures of drug exposure severity would also be welcome. The application of statistical methods that are more sensitive to the potential effects of drug exposure would also help.
