“…Our findings were derived with qualitative research and we are now moving to mixed methods. What we find is that youth gain networks of insights on how to navigate different types of small and larger challenges, such as: the challenges of working in teams (e.g., coordinating self, other, and group ;Larson 2007;Perry 2013); the puzzles of emotional processes (e.g., learning to understand and even use the powerful effects have on cognition, motivation, and self; Larson and Brown 2007;Rusk et al 2013); and the challenges of working to reach positive individual or collective goals in complex and sometimes disorderly real-world contexts (Larson and Angus 2011).…”

“…School‐based organizations can provide appropriate contexts to foster positive development competencies, such as self‐reflection, agency, bravery, and civic engagement (Mahoney, Larson, & Eccles, ; National Research Council & Institute of Medicine, ; Rusk et al., ). However, because of their stigmatized identities, LGBT youth may face additional challenges in finding safe contexts for developing these strengths.…”

“…When youth are ready, leaders help them capitalize on the potential for focused attention—to use the anxiety and worry for problem-solving on the challenges in their work. In an analysis of a similar case example of anxiety, Rusk et al (2013), suggested that a program leader’s strategy was to shift a youth’s attention from an initial reaction—in which attention may focus on fear of failure and avoidance—to a process of challenge appraisal, in which attention is focused on problem-solving. Not every youth in this subset experienced extreme disruptive anxiety; many seemed to benefit from leaders helping them to use anxiety for problem-solving.…”

“…Because youth trust program leaders, they may be more willing to talk with them about sensitive issues like self-doubt, anxiety, and feelings of failure. Several studies suggest that youth programs are contexts in which adolescents learn about emotions that arise in their projects (e.g., excitement, anger), and that staff sometimes play a coaching role in supporting emotional learning (Larson, 2011; Rusk et al, 2013; Smith et al, 2016), but these studies did not focus on how staff support teens who are experiencing disruptive anxiety.…”
