Given the increasing array of research on youth purpose development, it is essential that researchers and practitioners of youth purpose establish a cohesive research agenda. In this introduction to the special issue on youth purpose development, we summarize the articles included in this issue and highlight challenges and opportunities in the broader field of youth purpose research. We emphasize future directions in 4 areas: (1) operationalization of purpose, (2) measurement of purpose, (3) developmental science of purpose, and (4) interventions to cultivate youth purpose.
