This Project Grant award of $707,203 from the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (CFDA 93.865 - Child Health and Human Development Extramural Research) will fund a short-term longitudinal study to examine how teacher behavior and children's psychophysiological functioning, specifically respiratory sinus arrhythmia (RSA), work together to predict school readiness and early school success among low-income children.

The study will enroll 270 children from approximately 30 preschool classrooms and collect data on school readiness assessments, classroom observations with cardiac monitoring, and school success measures at the end of kindergarten. This research aims to address gaps in understanding how psychophysiological factors may impact school readiness and early academic outcomes, particularly for disadvantaged students. The project will be led by the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, with sub-awards to Lehman College and the University of North Carolina at Greensboro to collaborate on project priorities, data collection, and dissemination of findings.
