Co‐opted Boards and the Obfuscation of Financial Reports

Our empirical results are consistent with our hypotheses that board co‐option partly explains the obfuscation of financial reports.

Abstract Preterm birth is associated with later language impairment and delay. Socio‐economic deprivation is linked to decreased language exposure in early childhood, but it is unknown how prematurity influences this relationship. This study investigated the effects of socio‐economic status and gestational age at birth on language exposure, in a sample
