      sample case of gender-specificity and longitudinal stability of the dimensions of 
      intention self-regulation (selection, optimization, and compensation).

AB  - The study of positive youth development (PYD) rests on the integration of sound 
      developmental theory with rigorous developmental methods, To illustrate this 
      link, we focused on the Selection (S), Optimization (O), and Compensation (C; 
      SOC) model of intentional self regulation, a key individual-level component of 
      the individual context relations involved in the PYD process, and assessed the 
      dimensional structure of the SOC questionnaire, which includes indices of 
      Elective Selection, Loss-Based Selection, Optimization, and Compensation. Using 
      cross-sectional and longitudinal data from Grades 10 and 11 of the 4-H Study of 
      PYD, we estimated three models through bifactor data analysis, a procedure that 
      allows indicators to load both on their specific latent variables and on a 
      superordinate factor that comprises the construct under study. The first model 
      estimated was a standard bifactor model, computed separately for the 10th and 11 
      graders. In both samples, the same model described the hypothesized structure 
      well. The second model, proposed for the first time in this chapter, compared 
      multiple groups in their bifactor structure. Results indicated only minimal 
      gender differences in SOC structure in Grade 10. The third model, also proposed 
      for the first time in this chapter, involved an autoregression-type model for 
      longitudinal data, and used data from the 609 participants present in both 
      grades. Results suggested that the SOC bifactor structure was temporally stable.
