Popis: The primary aim of many community centers and educational programs designed for Muslim youth is to help them engage in civic behavior and develop civic beliefs that persist into adulthood. Yet little is known about what precisely civic identity means to Muslim youth today and how programs and practices designed to affirm Muslim youth affect civic engagement. This study investigates whether and how Muslim youths’ social networks—the system of interpersonal relationships in which individuals are embedded—change over the course of their participation in a weekend-long, annual scholastic tournament for high school students. Accordingly, the primary aim of this study is to explore whether and how participating in a national high school program designed to affirm religious identity builds students’ social networks—the system of interpersonal relationships in which individuals are embedded—and whether these networks positively affect students’ civic behavior in their daily lives. This registration is extending the previous registration in this project, which was solely examining one region. Additional data that were collected and have not yet been analyzed are pre-registered here.
