Organized extracurricular activities such as sport and art have the potential for promoting healthy development and reducing the risks faced by teenagers. However, current research evidence, often based on middle-class youth in the US, is inadequate for making policy recommendations for improvement to the after-school lives of Australian youth. This study will offer insight into the importance of making a diverse selection of organized activities available to Australian teenagers, and will improve our understanding of which aspects of participation are most likely to enhance their social and educational opportunities.

有组织的课外活动，如体育和艺术，有可能促进青少年的健康发展，减少他们面临的风险。然而，目前的研究证据，往往是基于中产阶级的青年在美国，是不够的政策建议，以改善澳大利亚青年的课余生活。这项研究将提供洞察力的重要性，使一个多样化的选择有组织的活动提供给澳大利亚青少年，并将提高我们的理解，参与的哪些方面最有可能提高他们的社会和教育机会。
