Abstract

Socioeconomic status (SES) affects brain development. As the brain is one of the most important parts of the body, it is crucial to investigate factors that can influence its function and how those changes carry on to different aspects of life. The impact of SES on brain function is broad, and it ranges from affecting emotional responses to life achievements in adulthood. The negative results of SES start in early childhood and continue onto adult life, causing many issues along the way. This review highlights the studies that have already examined SES. Many studies have already examined SES and its influence on cognitive function and in this work, different research will also be presented on each aspect of the brain region. Knowing the long-term consequences of lower SES, scientists have theorized using biomarkers to prevent and/or resolve these detriments. This report highlights the need for further research into intervention. These biomarkers will identify the people that are affected the most by low SES and certain actions can then be taken to alleviate the issues. Using the data from biomarkers, new policy can be proposed to counter the issues of SES and bring about positive results. By understanding the negative effects of SES, awareness is brought to the need for mediation of these impacts. 
 Keywords: socioeconomic status, cognitive function, biomarkers
