The effect of sport-based interventions on positive youth development: a systematic review and meta-analysis (2021, unknown): “PYD interventions associated with positive life skill changes included SUPER (Brunelle et al., 2007; Papacharisis et al., 2005), Girls on the Run (DeBate & Bleck, 2016), LiFE Sports Summer Camp (Anderson-Butcher et al., 2018; Riley et al., 2017), First Tee (Weiss et al., 2016), and three customized…”
Positive Youth Development From Sport to Life: Explicit or Implicit Transfer? (2014, background): “Moreover, future studies could benefit from collecting behavioral measures of youths’ skill transfer, in conjunction with youths’ and adults’ perceptions of their skill transfer (Papacharisis et al., 2005).”
Exploring perceived life skills development and participation in sport (2009, background): “This qualitative study complements previous quantitative and outcome-driven studies of life skills (e.g. Hansen et al. 2003, Papacharisis et al. 2005, Goudas et al. 2006, Larson et al. 2006), by exploring the processes of life skill development experienced by one young person.”
A team-sports-based life-skills program in a physical education context (2008, background): “The present study also extended the Papacharisis et al. (2005) and the Goudas et al. (2006) studies with respect to the positive thinking component of the life skills program.”
Physical education and sport programs at an inner city school: exploring possibilities for positive youth development (2012, background): “…are important and there is some promising evidence concerning participation retention (Hellison and Wright 2003), improving participants’ goal setting, problem-solving, and knowledge of life skills (Papacharisis et al. 2005), and fostering a sense of belonging and enjoyment (Wright and Li 2009).”
The potential of sports-based social interventions for vulnerable youth: implications for sport coaches and youth workers (2012, background): “The current knowledge base about sports-based social interventions targeted at socially vulnerable youth, which is largely built on positivistic research, has predominantly used an agency developmental approach (e.g. Papacharisis et al. 2005, Petitpas et al. 2005).”
Developing a Conceptual Framework for Life Skills Interventions Ψ (2013, methodology): “Papacharisis et al. (2005) adapted the SUPER program (Danish, 2002b) for use with youth (age range = 10 to 12 years) volleyball and football/soccer teams (see Table 1 for a description of the LS workshops/sessions for the SUPER Program).”
The effectiveness of teaching a life skills program in a physical education context (2006, background): “The scale was developed by Papacharisis et al. (2005) who reported satisfactory internal consistency and structural validity results.”
Transfer of Life Skills in Sport-Based Youth Development Programs: A Conceptual Framework Bridging Learning to Application (2018, background): “Another study addressed this problem by using an unpublished instrument referred to as a life skills knowledge test (Papacharisis et al., 2005) to assess students’ knowledge and beliefs about the effective use of life skills (Goudas, Dermitzaki, Leondari, & Danish, 2006).”
Life skills development through sport: current status and future directions (2008, background): “For instance, Papacharisis et al. (2005) examined the impact of a shortened-version of the Sports United to Promote Education and Recreation (SUPER) life skills program with 40 11-year old female volleyball (Study 1) and 32 11-year old male soccer (Study 2) players.”
