这项纵向研究探讨了课外活动的参与如何有助于“教育弹性”——青少年获得意想不到的教育成就，否则他们很容易因个人和社会层面的风险而在学业上取得成功。通过对学业动机、成就、心理健康以及家庭、学校和同伴环境的衡量，我们在青春期早期（大约 14 岁）发现了具有重大风险和缺乏资产的教育弱势青少年。我们综合使用以变量和模式为中心的分析技术，研究了弱势青少年在积极的课外活动中花费的总时间以及他们在青春期后期（大约 17 岁）参与课外活动的具体模式如何预测他们随后在成年早期（直到大约 21 岁）的大学入学率。一些但不是全部的活动模式可以独特地预测教育弹性。这些结果表明，积极的课外活动环境可以为弱势青少年提供适合其发展的经历，从而促进教育的持久性和健康发展。
This longitudinal study examines how extracurricular activity involvement contributes to “educational resilience”—the unexpected educational attainments of adolescents who are otherwise vulnerable to curtailed school success due to personal‐ and social‐level risks. Educationally vulnerable youth characterized by significant risks and an absence of assets were identified during early adolescence (approximately age 14) using measures of academic motivation, achievement, and mental health as well as family, school, and peer contexts. Using a mixture of variable‐ and pattern‐centered analytic techniques, we investigate how both the total amount time that vulnerable youth spent in positive extracurricular activities and the specific pattern of their extracurricular activity involvement during late adolescence (approximately age 17) predict their subsequent enrollment in college during early adulthood (up through approximately age 21). Educational resilience was predicted uniquely by some, but not all, activity patterns. These results suggest that positive extracurricular activity settings afford vulnerable youth developmentally appropriate experiences that promote educational persistence and healthy development.
