The primary goal of the study is to identify the mechanisms through which early family experiences in the family environment confer risk for the development of internalizing disorders, including depression and anxiety. In particular, we are investigating whether a trait-like indicator of individual differences in hypothalamic pituitary adrenal (HPA) axis functioning serves as an underlying mechanism. In addition, PAW Health aims to identify factors that promote risk or resiliency in the face of early adversity. There were 2 initial interviews (between September 2018 and March 2020). In addition, we followed-up with participants during the summer of 2021 to examine risk and resilience during COVID-19 pandemic.<\/p>\n<p><em><u>Project on Youth Stress and Coping<\/u><\/em><\/p>\n<p>The Project on Youth Stress and Coping was a longitudinal project involving 126 early adolescent girls and their primary caregivers. The primary goal of the project was to identify biological, psychological, interpersonal and environmental factors that affect adolescents&#8217; response to stressful life events and ultimately confer increased risk for the development of depressive symptoms and other forms of psychopathology.\u00a0Participants enrolled in the study during 6<sup>th<\/sup> or 7<sup>th<\/sup> grade, and completed two annual follow-up assessments. We are no longer recruiting participants for this project.<\/p>\n<p><em><u>Project on Relationship Experiences<\/u><\/em><\/p>\n<p>The\u00a0Project on Relationship Experiences examined factors that promote healthy sexual activity among emerging adults.

The project took place at two U.S. undergraduate institutions.\u00a0We are no longer recruiting participants for this project.<\/p>\n<p><em><u>Berkshire Relationship Project<\/u><\/em><\/p>\n<p>The Berkshire Relationship Project was a one-year longitudinal study investigating links between romantic involvement, emotion regulation and depressive symptoms among adolescents.\u00a0In addition, interested participants from this project were invited to participate in the Project on Youth Stress and Coping.\u00a0We are no longer recruiting participants for this project.<\/p>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Current Projects We are currently developing a project.
