520	3		_aThe goal of positive youth development is to build and strengthen assets that enable youth to grow and flourish throughout life. In this article, the definition, origins, and assessment of character strengths and ways of fostering them are discussed. Character strengths are here defined as a family of positive traits reflected in thougths, feelings and behaviors. Character strengths are important in their own right, but they additionally promote well-being and buffer against psychological disordes among youth. Good parenting, close relationships with peer and family, positive institutions, and varios youth development programs play important roles in the development of charater strengths. Character strengths exist in degrees, and they can be measured as individual differences. Future studies should approach character strengths as multidimensional constructs to understand better the structure and development of character, and how it contributes to positive youth development
