Abstract | An estimated three million American youth are in formal, one-to-one mentoring relationships, and countless more have meaningful, natural mentoring relationships with extended family members, teachers, neighbors, coaches and other caring, non-parental adults. The empirical literature generally indicates that close and enduring mentoring relationships can have a positive effect on youth self-esteem. This article begins by discussing different types of youth mentoring, then it summarizes the research on 1) the effects of mentoring relationships on self-esteem; 2) factors that predict variation in relationship effectiveness, leading to either positive or negative effects; and 3) the processes through which these relationships exert such effects. It concludes with recommended practices for mentoring programs which can contribute to positive youth outcomes. (Contains 1 figure and 1 table.) (As Provided). |
