SPSS 20 software and Pearson and Spearman correlation coefficients,independent t‑tests, ANOVA, multiple linear regression and analysis of covariance were used foranalyzing the data.RESULTS: The minimum and maximum scores of development were observed in the personal‑socialdomain (52.38 ± 9.1) and fine motor (56.06 ± 5.9), respectively. The results showed that the childspacing has direct relation with development in fine motor domain (r = 0.2, P < 0.001), personal‑socialdevelopment (r = 0.197, P = 0.001), and problem solving domain (r = 0.18, P = 0.002). The scorefor the development in gross motor skills had a direct correlation with the weight at birth (r = 0.129,P < 0.001). Breastfeeding also improved personal‑social development (P = 0.024). Sex (P = 0.024)and living place with communication skills also showed significant relations (P < 0.001).CONCLUSION: The factors such as the child’s sex, feeding in the first 6 months of age, living inurban or rural areas are effective in delayed development. Considering these factors to preventadverse effects of the elements and rapid identification of children with delayed development as wellas timely therapeutic interventions are essential in the health care system.
