The aim of this study was to investigate the impact of antenatal alcohol exposure on neurocognitive outcomes in children in the GUiNZ cohort at 8 years and estimate the prevalence of children that might need assessment for FASD or other neurodevelopmental impairments.

Alcohol exposure during pregnancy is known to be associated with a range of neurocognitive difficulties which can affect people throughout their lifetime.

This study was commissioned by the Ministry of Health (now Te Whatu Ora) to investigate the impact of antenatal alcohol exposure on neurocognitive outcomes in children in the GUiNZ cohort at 8 years and estimate the prevalence of children that might need assessment for FASD or other neurodevelopmental impairments.
