The present study is among the first to examine external assets as predictors of positive emotionsamong at-risk youth. The study aims to examine the associations of external assets with positiveemotions, determine external assets as a predictor of positive emotions in phase 1, and see if thesepredictors were consistently established in phase 2. At first contact, 403 participants from lowincomeapartments in the suburbs of Kuala Lumpur, aged 13–25 years were asked to complete the25 Developmental Assets, Malaysian version. The participants were also invited to participate insocial activities organized by the PERMATA community. The same participants were approachedfour months later to examine the stability of measures. Multiple regression analysis revealed supportis the most significant predictor of positive emotions at phase 1 whilst positive peer influence,family boundaries and caring neighborhood are the significant predictors at phase 2. Results suggestedthat the presence of other external assets can enhance the positive development of at-riskyouth, however, the support must be present to some extent in the first place.

The Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire (SDQ) was used to predict the positive and negative affects of emotional and behavioral difficulties among adolescent boys and girls aged between 14 and 21 years living in disadvantaged communities. A total of 316 adolescents—181 boys and 135 girls—living in the Seri Pantai and Pantai Ria Public Housing Projects in Kuala Lumpur were invited to complete the questionnaire. The results showed that conduct and peer problems were the most prevalent emotional and behavioral difficulties experienced by these adolescents. As expected, the emotional symptoms were more common among the girls than the boys. A further analysis showed that emotional symptoms, peer problems, and low prosocial behavior were predictors of the negative affect of emotional and behavioral difficulties while negative emotional symptoms and high hyperactivity were predictors of a positive affect. The findings suggested that three subscales of SDQ are required to produce a negative affect, and two subscales of SDQ for a positive affect
