Research related to optimal youth development has begun to delineate critical dimensions of important social contexts.8 — 11 For example, some researchers propose 3 basic experiences (ie, connection, regulation,
and autonomy) to define youth's main associations with their environment that can be measured across multiple settings.8, 12,13 Others have articulated similar
concepts and expanded the number of dimensions to include characteristics, such as adequate nutrition, health,
and shelter; physical
and psychological
safety; adequate
and appropriate supervision
and motivation; supportive relationships; support for efficacy
and opportunities for
skill building;
and integration of family, school,
and community efforts.10, 11
