Milwaukee preschool program raises IQs of children of retarded mothers
The Milwaukee Project tested 40 black, low income children of mothers with IQs under 80. An experimental group of 20 received intensive daily home interaction and five days a week center care for five years, while 20 formed a control group. IQ tests show the experimental group averaging 126, with many above 140, while the control group averaged 94. The program aims to prevent intellectual decline by creating a stimulating environment from infancy.
