Newborn minor physical anomalies predict short attention span, peer aggression, and impulsivity at age 3.

Waldrop MF, Bell RQ, McLaughlin B, Halverson CF Jr.

Abstract

From a 5-to 10-minute newborn examination, behaviors of males at age 3 could be predicted. The number of minor physical anomalies, assessed soon after birth, was significantly related to a cluster of behaviors that are frequently labeled hyperactivity.
