This study tested a school - based intervention developed for use with urban minority youth vulnerable to multiple negative developmental outcomes. A quasi - experimental design (pre and post follow up with matched comparison condition) was used to evaluate the impact of the intervention on promoting positive change in four developmental domains (skills / knowledge, attitudes, orientations, exploration / commitment) related to identity development. The final set of participants comprised a matched sample of 92 youngsters, 46 in the intervention and 46 in the comparison condition. Quantitative results indicated that the intervention condition showed positive and significant gains from pre to post - test on multiple indices, with a tendency toward the "levelling off" of intervention gains at follow up. A qualitative assessment of the impact of the intervention illustrated positive effects of the intervention as well as the possible obstacles to intervention efficiacy.
