More specifically, the project examines how early experiences and peer relationships affect school readiness as measured by academic and socioemotional variables.  Physiological influences on these relations are also examined (e.g., heart rate, breathing rate, skin conductance) in order to see if some children may be more biologically reactive to their environment (i.e., more sensitive to things happening in their peer context) and thus more heavily influenced by either positive or negative peer experiences.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">PEERS2K is funded by the National Science Foundation (BCS-1939393) and the formal abstract can be found <a href=\"https:\/\/nsf.gov\/awardsearch\/showAward?AWD_ID=1939393&amp;HistoricalAwards=false\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">For more information, please see the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.buffalo.edu\/news\/releases\/2021\/01\/023.html\">PEERS2K press release<\/a>!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">For the psychophysiology portion of the project, parents and children will come into our lab, and children will watch some videos!
