AB  - After-school programs (ASP) with psychology-based curricula improved students behavior at school by 23 percentage points compared to extracurricular-only programs in violent neighborhoods of El Salvador, Guatemala, and Honduras. The impact on improved behavior was largest for the highest-risk students. Programs with a mindfulness curriculum were more effective than those focused on character development, reducing dropout and improving fluid intelligence.
