This study was conducted in cooperation between Oslo University Hospital and the Norwegian Institute of Public Health. The participants are included from The Norwegian Mother, Father, and Child Study (MoBa); an ongoing prospective population-based cohort study of Norwegian-speaking pregnant women conducted by the Norwegian Institute of Public Health, which started in 1999. Nearly 1200 preschool children were clinically assessed, and their parents interviewed at Oslo university hospital.
This study resulted in four PhD projects:
Disputas om reguleringsfunksjoner hos barn med ADHD - Psykologisk institutt (PSI) (uio.no)
Disputas om språkforsinkelse hos urolige 3-åringer - Psykologisk institutt (PSI) (uio.no)
Disputas: Bothild Bendiksen - Barne- og ungdomspsykiatri - Institutt for klinisk medisin (uio.no)
