Peter L. Benson  

Definition

  • In a scholarly world that values dispassionate specialization, Peter L. Benson has persistently pursued a broad quest for understanding—and influencing—the individual, family, community, and social forces that shape young people's lives, beliefs, values, and commitments. Undaunted by those who insist on methodological purity, he has embraced multiple ways of learning, knowing, and teaching. [Source: Encyclopedia of Applied Developmental Science; Benson, Peter L.]
