  • Positive youth development in contexts [Elektronski vir] : [znanstvena monografija = scientific monograph]
    Positive youth development (PYD; Lerner et al., 2021) has gained the attention of researchers and practitioners not only in the USA, from where the perspective originated, but in recent decades ... across Europe as well. PYD, based on relational developmental systems theory, focuses on young people’s strengths and the importance of the contexts in which they interact. The relational developmental systems theory states that all aspects of human development are a function of the two-way interaction between the individual and their contexts (e.g., school, family, community, society; Overton, 2015). Accordingly, young people hold potencies that can support their optimal development when provided with suitable environmental opportunities (Porter, 2010). The principal assumption is that young people will develop positively when their strengths (internal assets) are aligned with the resources in their contexts (external assets). This alignment, if optimal, can lead to adaptive developmental regulations whereby thriving or positive youth outcomes (i.e., the 5Cs: competence, confidence, character, caring, connectedness) become more probable, and risky or problem behaviours (e.g., early school leaving, aggression, anxiety) less frequent. Moreover, youth who are thriving will engage in prosocial behaviours and contribute to their own development and the development of others in their contexts. The support mechanisms for positive development (internal assets, external assets) may vary among individuals and subgroups (e.g., youth with a migrant status, youth in transition, youth from different language backgrounds). This monograph investigates the mechanisms that support young people’s positive development across different contexts and subgroups, considering both international and Slovenian perspectives.
