This is to ensure that youth development programmes would be developed based on the aspects of positive youth development identified in this study. Data was collected at youth programmes organised by the Ministry of Youth and Sport, Malaysia using self- administered questionnaires among Malay youths. A total of 431 youths were involved in this study, comprising 204 males and 227 females. Structural equation modelling (SEM) was used to analyse the data.
