요즘엔 어린 학생들도 유학을 많이 간다고 하던데요.
I heard that a lot of young children are sent to study overseas these days.
 
네, 일찍 외국에 나가 공부하는 것도 나쁘지 않죠.
Yes. It's not a bad idea to study overseas at a young age.
 
그런데 그렇게 어린데 혼자 어떻게 생활을 하죠?
 
건강 상태 - 뇌 기능에 영향 미친다
  
According to a recent study conducted by Cornell University, test scores and school grades are greatly affected by one's family income. The research group studied the health records and income of 195 men living under the poverty line over an extended period of time to see if poverty affected their working memory, also known as the short-term memory. Tests and school grades generally only test students on their long-term memory.

"The longer a person is exposed to poverty at childhood, the worse the achievement levels become," researchers said. "Furthermore, the proportion of early childhood spent in poverty is also significantly related to a person's working memory."

What is most interesting, however, is that when researchers took a look at the men's health records, they found that it was not necessarily the fact of being poor that was hampering their working memory, but instead blood pressure, obesity, and stress hormone issues. Growing up in poverty meant that the men had less access to quality nutrition and health care. And scientists say that chronic stress alters brain chemistry and can cause damage to the hippocampus, which is vital to the memory.

In another study, researcher James Flynn from the University of Ulster looked at the average IQ of 11-year old British schoolchildren over a period of seventeen years. The study showed a large jump in IQ among children between the years 1938 and 1947, which Flynn attributes to improved nutrition among the poor in the United Kingdom.

"The 20th Century has seen both massive height gains and massive IQ gains," Flynn said. "From 1942 to the present, British school children aged 5 to 15 have gained 14 IQ points. However, since 1979, gains have declined with age. It was noticed that children between the ages of 12 to 13 and 14 to 15 saw small gains in IQ turn into small losses.
