(2011, background): “Hansen and colleagues (Hansen & Larson, 2007; Hansen, Larson, & Dworkin, 2003; Larson, Hansen, & Moneta, 2006) tested this assumption with a series of studies that examined the experiences of youth in different structured activities (i.e., sports, arts, faith groups, academic programs, community…”
