RT info:eu-repo/semantics/article T1 Exploring the individualized experiences of participants in a responsibility-based youth development program A1 Wright, Paul M. A1 Dyson, Ben A1 Moten, Tennille A2 Ediciones Universidad de Valladolid AB Youth development programs are built upon the assumption that individual participants have a unique set of strengths, needs, and developmental opportunities. The same is true of the Teaching Personal and Social Responsibility (TPSR) model. Although TPSR calls for individualized curricula and differentiated instruction, these topics have not been sufficiently examined in the literature. The current study provides case studies of four purposefully selected African American adolescent males and their experience in a community-based TPSR program. Findings are used to evaluate the program in terms of providing meaningful experiences to individual participants and illuminating the importance of considering individual differences among participants even when they have many characteristics in common. Implications for teaching and research are discussed.
