Scope

ERF of omega-3 fatty acids on intelligence quotient describes the quantitative relationship between (prenatal) exposure to omega-3 fatty acids and intelligence quotient (IQ) score (in children).

Definition

Data

The study by Cohen2005 estimates that increasing maternal docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) intake by 100 mg/day increases child's IQ by 0.13 points D↷. This value represents central estimate while the upper and lower bound for this ERF is 0.08 and 0.18. Thus, the ERF of DHA on IQ is described as triangular distribution with min=0.08, mode=0.13 and max=0.18.
