TY - JOUR PY - 2017// TI - Toward a research agenda: building character strengths in school settings JO - Journal of youth and adolescence A1 - Sokatch, Andrew SP - 1238 EP - 1239 VL - 46 IS - 6 N2 - Character strengths matter for long term success, and a growing body of evidence suggests that schools can be powerful places, and teachers powerful agents, by which these strengths are developed in adolescence. The articles in this volume move the field forward in important ways, and lead to a clear research agenda focused on creating testable interventions to build school and classroom environments that will assist young people in growing and leveraging these critical strengths.
