This study sought to enhance, through qualitative methods, an understanding of the factors that influence adolescents' commitments to extracurricular activities over time. We obtained semistructured interview data from 41 adolescents who had been highly involved in athletics or the arts since middle childhood. We examined their interpretations of the factors that supported or hindered their continued involvement in these activities over the years. Thematic analysis of the interviews revealed that psychological factors, perceptions of the context, and emerging identity all played a role in decisions to remain involvers or quit. Perceived competence and peer relationship emergerd as important psychological factors, whereas perception of challenge and cost and benefit were important contextual influences. We discuss implication of the findings for the implementation of extracurricular programs that support adolescent development.
