2 What are s? Herbicides Insecticides Rodenticides Fungicides Exposure and Children 2
3 Exposure and Cognitive Ability in Children Objectives of Current Study Objective 1 Examine the impact of chronic routine exposure to pesticides on cognitive and motor performance in children between 7 and 12 years of age, including memory performance, executive function performance, motor performance, and performance on school-related achievement tests. Objective 2 Measure the concentration of several pesticides and cholinesterase in the blood or urine in children between 7 and 12 years of age and examine associations between pesticide and cholinesterase concentration and cognitive and motor performance. 3

17 Persistent s (DDT) PP DDT DDE OP DDT ng/g Conclusions A significantly lower IQ was found in children living in areas of a great amount of pesticide use. Although, both groups were within the average range on IQ. This difference was independent of parents IQ and their socio-economic status. There is evidence of exposure to pesticides based on biological measurements. However, both groups were found to have been exposed to a number of pesticides. Next step is to run a multiple regression to examine the association between the biological measurements of pesticides and the IQ results along with the other cognitive tasks. 17

Future studies are needed to further explore the association between particular groups of pesticides and IQ and to examine the longitudinal effects of pesticide exposure. 20
