The National Science Foundation awarded South Dakota State University a $132,491 Project Grant under the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences federal grant program (CFDA 47.075) to conduct a longitudinal study of environmental identity development among rural and non-rural Alaskan children. The study will examine the emotional and behavioral processes involved in how children's sense of connection to the natural environment is formed from 2021 through 2023. As the awardee, South Dakota State University will oversee the research and reporting of findings. The state of South Dakota Board of Regents serves as the parent organization for the university. The grant supports the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences program's goals of promoting basic research and understanding how funds are invested in the social sciences.
