摘要：In the Summer of 2011 The Free Library of Philadelphia
(FLP) hired 90 teenagers into its six-week Summer Reading Literacy
Coach Program (SRLCP) as Teen Literacy Coaches (TLCs). Data was
collected at Time 1, Time 2 and Time 3. The two study hypotheses
were: (1) there will be a significant improvement in TLCs personal
development skills from Time 1 to Time 3 and (2) demographic data
and program specific skills measured at Time 2 will account for
significant variance in each Time 3 personal development skill
beyond the Time 1 personal development skills. We did not find
support for H1 but did find support for H2. Specific to H2 we found
that team-related and higher education interest each had a
significant positive impact (p <.05) impact on explaining Time 3 selfawareness; and a marginally significant positive impact (p <.10)
impact on explaining Time 3 self-management.
