本研究旨在探讨参与校本课外活动与早期辍学之间的关系。纵向评估完成了392名青少年（206名女孩，186名男孩），他们最初在7年级接受采访，每年随访到12年级。一个以人为本的聚类分析的基础上，人际能力量表的评级，在中学（即，7 - 8年级）教师确定的配置的男孩和女孩谁在社会学术能力不同。早期辍学被定义为未能完成11年级。研究结果表明，较早参加课外活动的学生的辍学率明显低于未参加课外活动的学生（p<. 05）。001）。然而，在中学期间被认为有能力或非常有能力的学生中，课外参与与早期辍学的关系不大。
This study examined the relation between involvement in school-based extracurricular activities and early school dropout. Longitudinal assessments were completed for 392 adolescents (206 girls, 186 boys) who were initially interviewed during 7th grade and followed up annually to 12th grade. A person-oriented cluster analysis based on Interpersonal Competence Scale ratings from teachers in middle schools (ie, 7th–8th grades) identified configurations of boys and girls who differed in social–academic competence. Early school dropout was defined as failure to complete the 11th grade. Findings indicate that the school dropout rate among at-risk students was markedly lower for students who had earlier participated in extracurricular activities compared with those who did not participate (p<. 001). However, extracurricular involvement was only modestly related to early school dropout among students who had been judged to be competent or highly competent during middle school.
