Abstract	Does school participatory budgeting (SPB) increase students' political efficacy? SPB, which is implemented in thousands of schools around the world, is a democratic process of deliberation and decision-making in which students determine how to spend a portion of the school's budget. We examined the impact of SPB on political efficacy in one middle school in Arizona. Our participants' (n = 28) responses on survey items designed to measure self-perceived growth in political efficacy indicated a large effect (Cohen's d = 1.46), suggesting that SPB is an effective approach to civic pedagogy, with promising prospects for developing students' political efficacy. (As Provided).
