We report measurements of kaon electroproduction from hydrogen and deuterium targets carried out at the Wilson Synchrotron Laboratory at Cornell University. The reactions γ_Vp→K⁺X⁰, K⁺Γ, and K⁺Σ⁰ were studied in the kinematic region 2.15≤W≤3.1 GeV and 1.2<Q²<4.0 GeV² as a function of Q², W, and ω. The K⁺Σ⁰ cross sections fall much more rapidly with increasing Q² than the K⁺Λ cross sections so that K⁺Σ⁰/KΛ→0 as Q² increases.
