这项研究的目的是确定潜在的机会，以提高成员参与社区为基础的联盟。我们假设，影响力和过程能力的机会将促进更高水平的个人成员的参与。我们在79个面向青年的联盟中的818名成员的样本中测试了这些假设。影响力的机会是衡量成员的看法，一个包容性的董事会领导风格和成员的报告委员会的作用。联盟进程的能力是通过成员对战略委员会的指导性和会议效率的看法来衡量的。成员们报告了会议内的三种参与方式，以及他们在会议之外花多少时间从事联盟事务。广义线性模型容纳联盟内的个人集群。影响的机会与个人在会议内外的参与有关。联盟进程能力与参与无关。这些结果表明，领导的包容性，而不是过程能力可能最有利于成员的参与。
The purpose of this study was to identify potential opportunities for improving member participation in community-based coalitions. We hypothesized that opportunities for influence and process competence would each foster higher levels of individual member participation. We tested these hypotheses in a sample of 818 members within 79 youth-oriented coalitions. Opportunities for influence were measured as members’ perceptions of an inclusive board leadership style and members’ reported committee roles. Coalition process competence was measured through member perceptions of strategic board directedness and meeting effectiveness. Members reported three types of participation within meetings as well as how much time they devoted to coalition business beyond meetings. Generalized linear models accommodated clustering of individuals within coalitions. Opportunities for influence were associated with individuals’ participation both within and beyond meetings. Coalition process competence was not associated with participation. These results suggest that leadership inclusivity rather than process competence may best facilitate member participation.
