Positive Youth Development:
The Covitality Advantage
The covitality construct principle proposes that more is better. That is, youths who develop various social and psychological skills and covitality assets are more likely to traverse childhood on a positive trajectory, with an increased likelihood of beneficial behavioral health outcomes. Research examining the covitality principle shows that accumulating social and psychological assets have multiplicative developmental advantages. Youths with more SEHS-S covitality assets report more health-promoting behaviors, fewer risk behaviors, and higher life satisfaction.
