    The study found no evidence of differences in cognitive abilities between various demographic groups of young children in Norway. Researchers tested over 7000 5-year old children from diverse socioeconomic and immigrant backgrounds on tasks measuring verbal and nonverbal abilities. Across all measures, ability levels did not differ significantly between groups defined by parents' education, number of books at home, immigrant status, or language spoken at home once performance was adjusted for age and sex. The results suggest that at age 5, prior to formal schooling, children from all backgrounds begin school with equal cognitive strengths to build upon.
