Abstract
Objective: To assess the influence of maternal socioeconomic factors on children's development during early childhood. Methods: Mother-child dyads (MCD) were included, composed by mothers and their children up to 72 months of age enrolled in a Nucleus of Early Childhood Education Center in the state of Pará. The dyad was simultaneously submitted to the socioeconomic questionnaire and the Denver II Developmental Screening Test (DDSTII) from February to May 2022. The data were tabulated in Microsoft Excel 2019® and analyzed using the Mann-Whitney test using the program SPSS Statistics 28®. The study was approved by the Research Ethics Committee. Results: Of the 55 MCD studied, there was a statistically significant difference only between maternal education and the result of the DDSTII with better performance among those whose mothers had a higher educational level. Conclusion: The maternal educational level directly influences the linguistic development of preschool children, possibly due to the quality and quantity of dyad interaction. It is a limited and homogeneous sample, preventing the generalization of the results. Further research is needed to better understand the influence between the studied variables.
