Abstract
  • This study examined associations between participation in voluntary out-of-school programs (e.g., scouting, Boys' and Girls' Clubs, 4-H, YMCA/YWCA) in adolescence and four negative outcomes: school dropout, early sexual activity, delinquency, and drug use. A prospective longitudinal design had collected four waves of interview data on a national sample of 15,000 individuals beginning at age 14 and ending at age 20 (National Educational Longitudinal Study). The analysis found that overall participation through childhood and adolescence was linked to substantially lower levels of all four negative outcomes. However, the associations depended on the developmental timing of the participation and the ecological location of the program.
