Abstract
Prosperity and well-being are typically highest when individuals engage and work collectively within their local communities. However, programmes to increase such engagement do not always show success, especially for young people. In the present project, we examined the effectiveness of techniques drawn from psychological research on behavioural change for promoting community engagement among adolescents.
