abstract="The purpose of this long-term qualitative study was to uncover evidence that might support components of positive youth development (PYD) in a music composition program at an urban youth detention center. The constructs of PYD come from self-determination theory-competence, autonomy, and relatedness-and formed the theoretical lens from which the data were analyzed. Over a period of 5 years, more than 700 youth participated in the program and created primarily rap music compositions. Comments from their feedback, as well as interviews, were analyzed using qualitative content analysis. <br><br>FINDINGS point to the emergence of two main categories as reasons for enjoying the program: competence and positive feelings. Creativity also emerged as linked to competence and autonomy as well as the &quot;Good Lives Model&quot; of detainee development. Further research on using culturally relevant and creative music programming as a tool in PYD is discussed.  Keywords: Juvenile justice <p /> <p>Language: en</p>",
