Abstract in brief

This study investigated how seafood consumption at age 7 affects children's behavioral and cognitive outcomes, particularly focusing on prosocial behavior and IQ.
The findings showed that children who ate less seafood (around 0-10 grams per week) had higher chances of displaying suboptimal prosocial behaviors at ages 7 and 9, but no link was found between seafood intake and IQ at age 8.
The study emphasizes the importance of seafood intake for behavioral development in children, especially regarding prosocial behaviors, highlighting the need for further research on its broader effects on neurodevelopment.
