Need Satisfaction in Structured and Unstructured Out-of-School-Time: A Positive Youth Development Approach
The Positive Youth Development (PYD) framework emphasizes adolescents' strengths and the role of supportive environments in fostering positive development (Lerner et al., 2015). This study investigates the role of psychological need satisfaction (PNS) in PYD outcomes across structured and unstructured out-of-school time (OST) contexts. Data were collected from 832 U.S. adolescents (mean age = 15.78, SD = 1.16, 56.2% female, 53.4% non-Hispanic Whi…

Leisure and psychosocial functioning during the Covid-19 pandemic: Exploring data from adolescents and parents of adolescents
During the COVID-19 pandemic, many people experienced life disruptions affecting leisure activities, such as discontinuation of after-school activities for adolescents and changes in the amount of leisure time available for parents. Because leisure activities have previously been associated with psychosocial functioning, the present study examined leisure behaviors and psychosocial functioning among 158 parents/guardians of adolescents and 116 of…
College Students’ Healthy Leisure: Latent Profile Analyses of Constraints and Negotiation Strategies
College presents opportunities for health promotion, but students may be constrained in their ability to engage in healthy leisure. Leisure constraints and constraint negotiation strategies are important influences of healthy leisure, but few studies have examined the potential for heterogeneity among students in the constraints they face and how they negotiate these constraints. The present study therefore used a person-centered approach, latent…
College students’ perceptions of healthy and unhealthy leisure: Associations with leisure behaviour
Despite social acceptance of some leisure activities as healthy or unhealthy, individual behaviour suggests the story is more complex as individuals engage in leisure in both healthy and unhealthy ways. To better understand how leisure behaviour is perceived, we assessed American college students’ perception of their own leisure activities’ healthiness, as well as their perception of healthy and unhealthy leisure activities in general. Three grou…

Comparison of the Use of Self-Report Surveys and Organizational Documents in Knowledge Translation Research
We compared the same outcome data obtained from two different sources (self-report surveys and organizational documents) in order to examine their relative performance in evaluating the effect of knowledge translation strategies on evidence-informed decision-making. Our data came from a randomized controlled trial that evaluated the impact of knowledge translation strategies on promoting evidence-informed decision-making in public health units ac…

Neighbourhood influences on participation in activities among older adults with chronic health conditions
Agree Ii: Advancing guideline development, reporting and evaluation in health care
Clinical practice guidelines, which are systematically developed statements aimed at helping people make clinical, policy-related and system-related decisions,[1][1],[2][2] frequently vary widely in quality.[3][3],[4][4] A strategy was needed to differentiate among guidelines and ensure that those
Understanding teachers' perceptions of the motor difficulties of children with developmental coordination disorder (DCD)
Background. Children with developmental coordination disorder (DCD) are often identified by classroom teachers and the identification process relies heavily on teachers' perceptions. The literature would suggest that teachers' perceptions may be influenced by a child's gender, behaviour and the type of motor problem they demonstrate. To date, the influence of these factors on teachers' perceptions of children with DCD has not been empirically tes…
Measuring children’s participation in recreation and leisure activities: Construct validation of the Cape and PAC
There is a need for psychometrically sound measures of children's participation in recreation and leisure activities, for both clinical and research purposes. This paper provides information about the construct validity of the Children's Assessment of Participation and Enjoyment (CAPE) and its companion measure, Preferences for Activities of Children (PAC). These measures are appropriate for children and youth with and without disabilities betwee…
