Persistent link for this community
The Minnesota Youth Development Research Group was initiated at the University of Minnesota in 2007, and is housed in the Department of Educational Psychology. The purpose of the group is to explore methodological and substantive challenges in youth development, relying on the tenets of positive psychology, ecological perspectives of youth development, and the translation of research to practice. The group primarily works with the triennial Minnesota Student Survey (Minnesota Department of Education) and similar youth data sets.
