      on Mainland Chinese High School Students.

AB  - There are several limitations of the scientific literature on the linkage between 
      positive youth development (PYD) attributes and adolescent psychological 
      morbidity. First, longitudinal studies in the field are limited. Second, few 
      studies have used validated PYD measures to explore the related issues. Third, 
      few studies have used large samples. Fourth, limited studies have been conducted 
      in mainland China. In this study, we conducted a longitudinal study using two 
      waves of data collected from 2648 junior high school students in mainland China. 
      In each wave, participants responded to a validated PYD scale (Chinese Positive 
      Youth Development Scale: CPYDS) and other measures of well-being, including the 
      20-item Centre for Epidemiologic Studies Depression Scale (CES-D). After 
      controlling for the background demographic variables, different measures of CPYDS 
      (cognitive-behavioral competence, prosocial attributes, general positive youth 
      development qualities, positive identity, and overall PYD qualities) were 
      negatively associated with CES-D scores in Wave 1 and Wave 2. Longitudinal 
      analyses also revealed that PYD measures in Wave 1 negatively predicted Wave 2 
      depression scores and the changes over time. The present findings highlight the 
      protective role of PYD attributes in protecting adolescents from depression.
