      Introduction and Overview

      The impact of adolescent health risk behaviors remains a primary concern of citizens throughout the country. Many health problems experienced by adolescents are caused by a very few preventable behaviors. Patterns of alcohol, tobacco, and other drug (ATOD) use and related risk behaviors are often formed during adolescence. These patterns play an important role in health throughout adulthood.

       

      This report presents results from the fall 2010 Healthy Youth Survey in Washington State. This survey was sponsored by the Department of Health (DOH), the Office of Superintendent of Public Instruction, the Department of Social and Health Services, the Department of Commerce, the Family Policy Council and the Liquor Control Board in cooperation with schools throughout the state of Washington.

       

      For each item, local results appear in the first two columns and statewide results appear in the second two columns. The number of valid responses (“n”) appears in parentheses for each item. Survey items covering the same topics are grouped together (the item numbering is specific to this report and does not necessarily reflect the item order on the actual survey). The bulleted points and graphs included at the beginning of this report highlight selected findings. Additional information may be found in the Interpretive Guide posted to the Healthy Youth Survey web site (http://www.hys.wa.gov/ ).

       

      Survey participation rates can be found on the Healthy Youth Survey web site. The following guidance from DOH may be used when reviewing your results. However, if a particular group(s) of students did not complete the survey and therefore did not contribute to your results, there may be limitations to your results even if you have a high participation rate (i.e., if differences exist between students who did and who did not complete the survey). There may be value in discussing the potential limitations when using the results in this report.
      · 70% or greater participation–Results are probably representative of students in this grade.
      · 40–69% participation–Results may be representative of students in this grade.
      · Less than 40% participation–Results are likely not representative of students in this grade but do reflect students who completed the survey.



      Key to the Notes

      The survey was administered in 4 versions: Forms A and B (or alternate Form NS, identical to Form B but without the sexual behavior questions) were administered to students in Grades 8, 10, and 12. Forms A and B (or NS) contained a core set of common items (see “List of Core Items” on the last page of this report) and additional items unique to each form. Form C was administered to students in Grade 6. This form consisted primarily of items drawn from Forms A and B but also included some unique items. Several items on each form were optional at the discretion of the school; schools that did not administer the optional items tore off the last page of the survey booklet. The following notes are used throughout this report to document the differences between the items on different versions and indicate the optional items:

      A = wording on Form A

      B = wording on Form B (and NS)

      C = wording on Form C

      † = optional item

       

      * Estimate of enrolled students based on figures from the 2008–2009 school year, provided by OSPI (or later if school not in 2008 enrollment file).

      ** Participation rate = valid responses ÷ enrolled students (may be >100% if enrollment greater in 2010 than 2008).

      Selected Results by Gender

      Selected items are presented by gender to highlight any differences between females and males. The p-values reported after each item can be used to examine whether differences in the local data between females and males are statistically significant. A p-value of less than .05 means, for the local results, there is a significant difference between females and males (i.e., the probability that the difference occurred by chance is less than 5%). To ensure student anonymity, local results are suppressed for each item on this page if any cell (e.g., females who reported smoking) represented fewer than 10 students.

      Alcohol, Tobacco, and Other Drug Use

      Alcohol, tobacco, and other drug use has been a major concern in this country for many years. The consequences of ATOD use are well known. In the short term, ATOD use interferes with positive physical, emotional, and social development. In the long term, ATOD use is associated with delinquency and criminal activity, unintended injuries, and a variety of health complications including shorter life expectancy. The economic costs of ATOD use are enormous (in Washington State an estimated $1.81 billion in 1990 $2.54 billion in 1996, and $5.21 billion in 2005). Tobacco use is the world’s leading cause of preventable death, disease, and disability. This section provides information about lifetime ATOD use (which in part reflects experimental use), use in the past 30 days (i.e., current use), and other tobacco-, alcohol-, and drug-related issues.

      Other Health Concerns

      This section provides results regarding other health concerns including nutrition and fitness, health conditions and health care, safety, behaviors related to intentional injury, depression, and gambling behavior. Proper nutrition and exercise are critical components of a healthy life, as is access to preventive health care. Safety-related behaviors, such as wearing a seat belt when in a moving vehicle, can profoundly influence the outcome of an accident. Injury is the leading cause of death for adolescents aged 10 to 19, and violence contributes to injury-related deaths. People who are depressed experience a range of symptoms, and depression is associated with suicidal behavior.

      School Climate

      In the past few years Washington State has given increased attention to supportive learning environments. Students need a safe, nurturing, healthy, and civil learning environment if they are to be successful in school. This section provides information about student perceptions of school climate.

       
      122.  A student is being bullied when another student, or group of students, say or do nasty or unpleasant things to him or her. It is also bullying when a student is teased repeatedly in a way he or she doesn’t like. It is NOT bullying when two students of about the same strength argue or fight. In the last 30 days, how often have you been bullied?

      Quality of Life

      Health-related quality of life is an individual’s or group’s perceived physical and mental health over time. At the individual level it involves a person’s health and health-related conditions; at the community level it involves conditions that influence people’s health. This section contains the results of the items related to individual quality of life.

      Risk and Protective Factors

      Decades of research have shown that certain risk factors are associated with increased likelihood of health risk behaviors including ATOD use, violence, and delinquent behaviors. Similarly, research has shown that protective factors exert a positive influence against the negative influence of risk factors. The survey included substantial coverage of risk and protective factors based on the work of Drs. Hawkins and Catalano and associates at the University of Washington. The premise of the risk reduction and protective factor enhancement approach to prevention is that preventing a problem before it occurs requires addressing the factors that predict the problem. Ideally, this strategy entails discovering the causes of the problem behavior and influencing those causes. Many of the survey items were used to assess students’ status on risk and protective factors in the community, school, and peer-individual domains. Composite scales were computed for use in local program planning.

       

      The table on the following page provides the complete list of risk and protective factors and indicates the years the Healthy Youth Survey has included each factor.

      Risk and Protective Factor Scale Results

      For each risk factor scale, the percentage of students who are at risk (i.e., who agreed with statements that predict ATOD use or other problem behaviors) is reported; higher percentages indicate that more students are likely to engage in problem behaviors. For each protective factor scale, the percentage of students who are resilient (i.e., who agreed with statements that predict the ability to resist ATOD use or other problem behaviors) is reported; higher percentages indicate that fewer students are likely to engage in problem behaviors. These percentages are based on computational methods provided by the University of Washington’s Social Development Research Group.
