“…Other studies appeared to be more youth-driven, from inception of the research question to disseminating results and action projects (Ford et al, 2012; Kim et al, 2020). In many studies, especially those with CABs, it was difficult to determine how many members were youth and how involved youth were in CBPR processes, especially during early stages (Garwick et al, 2008; Holliday et al, 2018; Langdon et al, 2016; Strachan et al, 2018). While reasonable to include adult involvement in the complex processes of CBPR, future literature would benefit from more transparency regarding youth participation.…”

“…Strachan et al (2018) framed their study through the five Cs of positive youth development—confidence, competence, character, connection, and caring. This study also employed a “two-eyed seeing approach” (Strachan et al, 2018, p. 294), which is consistent with the integrated Indigenous ecological model (Lavallée & Lévesque, 2013). The integrated Indigenous ecological model, which was applied in three studies (Blodgett et al, 2013; Hudson et al, 2020; McHugh, Coppola, et al, 2015), was the most frequently utilized theory.…”

“…Consequently, this study was strengthened by providing a theoretical basis for whom the intervention should focus on and how it was delivered. Strachan and colleagues (2018) utilized the five Cs of positive youth development—confidence, competence, character, connection, and caring—to guide the development of interview questions and the data analysis. Blodgett and Schinke (2015) worked with Indigenous team members to holistically situate the research in “relevant sociocultural contexts” (p. 177) by centering participants’ diverse experiences of navigating dual academic and athletic careers.…”

“…The primary analytic strategy employed across the qualitative investigations reviewed here was thematic analysis. Five studies specifically followed Elo and Kyngäs’ (2008) approach to content analysis (Dubnewick et al, 2018; Hudson et al, 2020; Mason et al, 2019; McHugh, Coppola, et al, 2015; Strachan et al, 2018). Most studies, however, did not specifically articulate the implementation of any one formal analytic strategy.…”

Community-based participatory research has gained traction as an innovative approach to research with underserved communities. Community-based participatory research with Indigenous youth, however, is less common. The purpose of this critical review is to explore the conduct of community-based participatory research with Indigenous youth over the past 20 years. Eighteen studies met inclusion criteria; they were evaluated for their respective use of theory, methodology, and findings. One study was quantitative, 16 were qualitative, and one employed mixed methods. Implications for future research, outreach and practice, and policy are discussed. Overall, youth highlighted connection to culture as a major strength and identified a need for programming centered in culture and community. The use of community-based participatory research represents a valuable opportunity to address unique challenges that Indigenous youth face in responsive, creative, and sustainable ways.

“…This distinguishes bravery from aforementioned PYD attributes, which emphasize perceived capacity as opposed to action. Bravery has been associated with various indicators of well-being, such as connection with peers and hope (Bronk, 2012; Park & Peterson, 2009; Strachan et al, 2018). This makes bravery a particularly relevant facet of thriving to study and to promote.…”

A Mixed-Methods Examination of the Unique Associations of Gender-Sexuality Alliance Involvement and Family Support on Bravery in Sexual and Gender Minority Youth

Research among sexual and gender minority (SGM) youth has suggested associations between Gender-Sexuality Alliance (GSA) involvement and better health. Emergent research has similarly demonstrated associations between family support and general well-being among SGM youth. However, the trait of bravery has received little attention in this literature, despite its relevance for youth in marginalized positions. We examined the association between level of GSA involvement, family support, and bravery among GSA members ( n = 295; Mage = 16.07), and whether those associations differed based on sexual orientation or gender identity. We then conducted one-on-one interviews with SGM youth ( n = 10), to understand how they understood bravery and experienced support in both GSA and family contexts. Greater GSA involvement significantly predicted greater bravery for all youth, whereas greater family support predicted greater bravery only for heterosexual youth. No significant moderation was found for gender minority youth. Our qualitative findings clarified how SGM youth conceptualized bravery and how they experienced it within their GSA and family settings. GSAs were associated with more frequent displays of explicit support for SGM identity, while families were perceived as providing less explicit support.

IntroductionThe term contribution is a key feature of approaches to positive youth development but has yet to be adequately defined. The purposes of this study were to identify properties that underlie contribution and to establish a theoretical definition of the construct.MethodsA two‐phase scoping review was conducted. The first phase involved the systematic search, selection, and analysis of studies from which six properties of contribution were identified and a preliminary theoretical definition was constructed. In the second phase expert judges rated the degree to that the proposed definition and the six properties of contribution fit with their conceptualization of the construct on a 6‐point scale.ResultsMean ratings for the definition and the six properties ranged from 5.05 to 5.70. Judges' ratings for the overall definition of contribution and the six properties were evaluated using Aiken's content validity coefficient (V). All V coefficients ranged in size from 0.81 to 0.94 and were statistically significant (p's < .01) indicating that the definition of contribution and the corresponding six properties fit well with experts' conceptualizations of the construct.ConclusionThis study provides a theoretical definition of contribution that will serve as a foundation upon which future research in the area of positive youth development can build.
