Positive Youth Development In The Midst Of Coping With Parental Cancer: Implications For Youth Development Research And Practice, Kerri Ashurst, Jason Hans, Donna Smith, Kenneth Jones

Journal of Youth Development

Four implications for youth development research and practice resulted from a qualitative study on psychosocial developmental experiences of late adolescents coping with parental cancer during late adolescence. The study employed a developmental systems framework and grounded theory methods.

Weaving Evaluation Into The Fabric Of Youth Development, Ben Silliman, Gene Shutt

Journal of Youth Development

An Empowerment Evaluation process served to engage staff and campers and foster integration of authentic assessment methods into youth camp programming over a three-year period. Key elements to the process included program planning, staff training, timing and balance of action and reflection activities, data collection and management.

The Influence Of Narcissism And Self-Control On Reactive Aggression, Melissa L. Harrison

USF Tampa Graduate Theses and Dissertations

The empirical literature to date has indicated that narcissism is associated with reactive aggression; however, exactly why narcissists respond with aggression to provocation is yet to be determined. The present paper is an exploration of two possible means through which a lack of self-control could be an important predictor involved in narcissists‟ aggressive behavior: 1) a lack of self-control could explain the link between narcissism and aggression, and 2) the combination of insufficient self-control and narcissism could increase the likelihood of aggressive response to provocation.

To explore these possibilities, an experiment was conducted in which 214 participants were first administered …
