Description¶

An existing framework described in the article as Berkowitz, Bier, and McCauley's account of "effective features and practices that support character development." The responding author engages it by proposing mechanism-level additions: ten developmental experiences drawn from the Foundations for Young Adult Success framework, with "some potential alignments with Berkowitz and colleagues' PRIMED framework" noted. It serves as the practice-oriented counterpart to the developmental-experiences proposal.
