AB The Girls Just Wanna Have Fun program is a physical activity-based life skills program that was developed in response to the highlighted need to increase levels of physical activity in female youth and is based on the TPSR model (Hellison, 1995). The purpose of this research was to examine how well the implementation of the program adhered to the five levels of the TPSR model using a time series analysis. Participants and leaders completed evaluations of the five TPSR levels at the end of each session. The youth also completed the Personal and Social Responsibility Questionnaire at the beginning and end of the program. Results indicated that participants’ self-ratings of the five TPSR levels varied based on type of life skill and physical activity of each program session, but overall showed a gradual upward trend throughout the program. Dependent t-tests revealed a significant difference for leadership from the start to the end of the program. This research aids in understanding the process in which youth development programs, specifically those utilizing the TPSR model, can be effectively implemented. Practical recommendations for future programming are discussed.
