Abstract:
Social skill development among socially vulnerable youth is a growing concern due to structural risk factors in schools and communities. Research suggests sport-based positive youth development (PYD) programs are contexts that can be leveraged to support social skill development. One gap in our research is exploration of whether SEL curricula and instruction, delivered via positive verbal reinforcements and tangible incentives (i.e., buttons) in sport-based PYD programs, can positively influence the development of social skills among socially vulnerable youth. To address this gap, we analyzed pre- and post-test survey data from 301 socially vulnerable youth who attended a 19-day sport-based PYD summer camp.
