        Abstract

        Problem: Priority health-risk behaviors, which are behaviors that contribute to the leading causes of morbidity and mortality among youth and adults, often are established during childhood and adolescence, extend into adulthood, and are interrelated and preventable.

        Reporting Period Covered: September 2008--December 2009.

        Description of the System: The Youth Risk Behavior Surveillance System (YRBSS) monitors six categories of priority health-risk behaviors among youth and young adults: 1) behaviors that contribute to unintentional injuries and violence; 2) tobacco use; 3) alcohol and other drug use; 4) sexual behaviors that contribute to unintended pregnancy and sexually transmitted diseases (STDs), including human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection; 5) unhealthy dietary behaviors; and 6) physical inactivity. In addition, YRBSS monitors the prevalence of obesity and asthma. YRBSS includes a national school-based Youth Risk Behavior Survey (YRBS) conducted by CDC and state and local school-based YRBSs conducted by state and local education and health agencies. This report summarizes results from the 2009 national survey, 42 state surveys, and 20 local surveys conducted among students in grades 9--12.

        Results: Results from the 2009 national YRBS indicated that many high school students are engaged in behaviors that increase their likelihood for the leading causes of death among persons aged 10--24 years in the United States. Among high school students nationwide, 9.7% rarely or never wore a seat belt when riding in a car driven by someone else. During the 30 days before the survey, 28.3% of high school students rode in a car or other vehicle driven by someone who had been drinking alcohol, 17.5% had carried a weapon, 41.8% had drunk alcohol, and 20.8% had used marijuana. During the 12 months before the survey, 31.5% of high school students had been in a physical fight and 6.3% had attempted suicide. Substantial morbidity and social problems among youth also result from unintended pregnancies and STDs, including HIV infection. Among high school students nationwide, 34.2% were currently sexually active, 38.9% of currently sexually active students had not used a condom during their last sexual intercourse, and 2.1% of students had ever injected an illegal drug. Results from the 2009 YRBS also indicated that many high school students are engaged in behaviors associated with the leading causes of death among adults aged ≥25 years in the United States. During 2009, 19.5% of high school students smoked cigarettes during the 30 days before the survey. During the 7 days before the survey, 77.7% of high school students had not eaten fruits and vegetables five or more times per day, 29.2% had drunk soda or pop at least one time per day, and 81.6% were not physically active for at least 60 minutes per day on all 7 days. One-third of high school students attended physical education classes daily, and 12.0% were obese.

        Interpretation: Since 1991, the prevalence of many health-risk behaviors among high school students nationwide has decreased. However, many high school students continue to engage in behaviors that place them at risk for the leading causes of morbidity and mortality. The prevalence of most risk behaviors does not vary substantially among cities and states.

        Public Health Action: YRBS data are used to measure progress toward achieving 15 national health objectives for Healthy People 2010 and three of the 10 leading health indicators, to assess trends in priority health-risk behaviors among high school students, and to evaluate the impact of broad school and community interventions at the national, state, and local levels. More effective school health programs and other policy and programmatic interventions are needed to reduce risk and improve health outcomes among youth.

        Introduction

        In the United States, 74% of all deaths among youth and young adults aged 10--24 years result from four causes: motor-vehicle crashes (30%), other unintentional injuries (16%), homicide (16%), and suicide (12%) (1). Substantial morbidity and social problems also result from the approximately 757,000 pregnancies among women aged 15--19 years (2), the estimated 9.1 million cases of sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) among persons aged 15--24 years (3), and the estimated 6,610 cases of human immunodeficiency virus/acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (HIV/AIDS) among persons aged 15--24 years (4) that occur annually. Among adults aged ≥25 years, 59% of all deaths in the United States result from cardiovascular disease (35%) and cancer (24%) (1). These leading causes of morbidity and mortality among youth and adults in the United States are related to six categories of priority health-risk behaviors: 1) behaviors that contribute to unintentional injuries and violence; 2) tobacco use; 3) alcohol and other drug use; 4) sexual behaviors that contribute to unintended pregnancy and STDs, including human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection; 5) unhealthy dietary behaviors; and 6) physical inactivity. These behaviors frequently are interrelated and are established during childhood and adolescence and extend into adulthood.

        To monitor priority health-risk behaviors in each of these six categories and obesity and asthma among youth and young adults, CDC developed the Youth Risk Behavior Surveillance System (YRBSS) (5). YRBSS includes school-based national, state, and local Youth Risk Behavior Surveys (YRBS) conducted among representative samples of students in grades 9--12. National, state, and local surveys have been conducted biennially since 1991 (Table 1).

        This report summarizes results from the 2009 national YRBS and trends in risk behaviors during 1991--2009. Data from the 42 state and 20 local surveys with weighted data for the 2009 YRBSS cycle (Figure 1) also are included in this report. Data from the remaining five state surveys and three local surveys with unweighted data are not included. One local survey was conducted during fall 2008; the national survey, 39 weighted state surveys, and 18 weighted local surveys were conducted during spring 2009; and three of the weighted state surveys and one of the weighted local surveys were conducted during fall 2009.

        Methods

        Detailed information about the national, state, and local YRBSs has been described elsewhere (5). Information also is available at http://www.cy118119.com/yrbs.

        Sampling

        National Youth Risk Behavior Survey

        The sampling frame for the 2009 national YRBS consisted of all regular public and private schools with students in at least one of grades 9--12 in the 50 states and the District of Columbia. The sampling frame was obtained from the Market Data Retrieval (MDR), formerly Quality Education Data (QED), Inc., database (6). The MDR database includes information on both public and private schools and the most recent data from the Common Core of Data from the National Center for Education Statistics (7). A three-stage cluster sample design produced a nationally representative sample of students in grades 9--12 who attend public and private schools. The first-stage sampling frame consisted of 1,276 primary sampling units (PSUs), consisting of counties, subareas of large counties, or groups of smaller, adjacent counties. The 1,276 PSUs were categorized into 16 strata according to their metropolitan statistical area (MSA) status (i.e., urbanicity) and the percentages of black and Hispanic students in the PSUs. From the 1,276 PSUs, 57 were sampled with probability proportional to overall school enrollment size for the PSU.

        In the second stage of sampling, 196 schools with any of grades 9--12 were sampled with probability proportional to school enrollment size. The third stage of sampling consisted of randomly sampling in each of grades 9--12, one or two classrooms from either a required subject (e.g., English or social studies) or a required period (e.g., homeroom or second period). All students in sampled classes were eligible to participate. Schools, classes, and students that refused to participate were not replaced.

        To enable a separate analysis of data for black and Hispanic students, three strategies were used to oversample these students: 1) larger sampling rates were used to select PSUs that were in high-black and high-Hispanic strata; 2) a modified measure of size was used to increase the probability of sampling schools with a disproportionately high minority enrollment; and 3) two classes per grade, rather than one, were sampled in schools with a high minority enrollment.

        State and Local Youth Risk Behavior Surveys

        In 2009, each state and local school-based survey used a two-stage cluster sample design to produce a representative sample of public school students in grades 9--12 in their jurisdiction. In the first sampling stage, schools with any of grades 9--12 were sampled with probability proportional to school enrollment size in 40 states and six cities; all schools with any of grades 9--12 were sampled in two states and 14 cities. In the second sampling stage, in 41 states and 20 cities, intact classes from either a required subject (e.g., English or social studies) or a required period (e.g., homeroom or second period) were sampled randomly, and all students in the sampled classes were eligible to participate. In one state, all students in sampled schools were eligible to participate.

        Data Collection Procedures and Questionnaires

        Survey procedures for the national, state, and local surveys were designed to protect students' privacy by allowing for anonymous and voluntary participation. Before survey administration, local parental permission procedures were followed. Students completed the self-administered questionnaire during one class period and recorded their responses directly on a computer-scannable booklet or answer sheet. CDC's Institutional Review Board approved the protocol for the national YRBS.

        The 2009 standard questionnaire contained 87 questions. States and cities could add or delete questions from the standard questionnaire. For the national questionnaire, 11 questions were added to the standard questionnaire. Skip patterns were not included in any YRBS questionnaire to protect students' privacy by ensuring all students took about the same amount of time to complete the questionnaire. For state and local surveys, only data from standard questions are presented in this report. Information about the reliability of the standard questionnaire has been published elsewhere (8).

        Data Processing Procedures and Response Rates

        For the 2009 national YRBS, 16,460 questionnaires were completed in 158 schools. The national data set was cleaned and edited for inconsistencies. Missing data were not statistically imputed. Among the 16,460 completed questionnaires from the national YRBS, 50 failed quality control* and were excluded from analysis, leaving 16,410 usable questionnaires (Table 2). The school response rate was 81%; the student response rate was 88%; the overall response rate was 71%? (Table 2).

        In 2009, data from 42 state and 20 local surveys were weighted. Data from each state and local data set also were cleaned and edited for inconsistencies with the same procedures used for the national data set. The number of completed questionnaires that failed quality control checks and were excluded from analysis from the state and local surveys ranged from 0 to 374 (median: 7). The student sample sizes ranged from 965 to 14,870 (Table 2). School response rates ranged from 73% to 100%; student response rates ranged from 61% to 94%; and overall response rates ranged from 60% to 94%.

        Race/ethnicity was computed from two questions: 1) "Are you Hispanic or Latino?" (response options were "yes" or "no"), and 2) "What is your race?" (response options were "American Indian or Alaska Native," "Asian," "black or African American," "Native Hawaiian or other Pacific Islander," or "white"). For the second question, students could select more than one response option. For this report, students were classified as "Hispanic/Latino" and are referred to as "Hispanic" if they answered "yes" to the first question, regardless of how they answered the second question. Students who answered "no" to the first question and selected only "black or African American" to the second question were classified as "black or African American" and are referred to as "black." Students who answered "no" to the first question and selected only "white" to the second question were classified, and are referred to, as "white." Race/ethnicity was classified as missing for students who did not answer the first question and for students who answered "no" to the first question but did not answer the second question.

        Students were classified as obese or overweight based on their body mass index (kg/m2) (BMI), which was calculated from self-reported height and weight. The BMI values were compared with sex- and age-specific reference data from the 2000 CDC growth charts (9). Obese was defined as a BMI of ≥95th percentile for age and sex. Overweight was defined as a BMI of ≥85th percentile and <95th percentile for age and sex. These classifications are not intended to diagnose obesity or overweight in individual students, but to provide estimates of obesity and overweight for the population of students surveyed.

        Weighting

        For the national YRBS, a weight based on student sex, race/ethnicity, and grade was applied to each record to adjust for school and student nonresponse and oversampling of black and Hispanic students. The overall weights were scaled so that the weighted count of students equals the total sample size, and the weighted proportions of students in each grade match the national population proportions. Therefore, weighted estimates are representative of all students in grades 9--12 attending public and private school in the United States.

        State and local surveys that had a representative sample of students, appropriate documentation, and an overall response rate of 60% or higher were weighted. A weight was applied to each record to adjust for student nonresponse and the distribution of students by grade, sex, and race/ethnicity in each jurisdiction. Therefore, weighted state and local estimates are representative of all students in grades 9--12 attending public schools in each jurisdiction.

        Analytic Methods

        Statistical analyses were conducted on weighted data using SAS(r) (10) and SUDAAN (11) software to account for the complex sampling designs. Prevalence estimates and confidence intervals were computed for all variables and all data sets. In addition, for the national YRBS data, t tests were used to determine pairwise differences between subpopulations and temporal changes during 2007--2009 (12). Differences between prevalence estimates were considered statistically significant if the t test p value was <0.05 for main effects (sex, race/ethnicity, and grade), for interactions (sex by race/ethnicity, sex by grade, race/ethnicity by sex, and grade by sex), and for changes over time. Only statistically significant differences in prevalence estimates are reported in the results section in the following order: sex, sex by race/ethnicity, sex by grade, race/ethnicity, race/ethnicity by sex, grade, and grade by sex.

        For the national YRBS data, temporal changes from the earliest year of data collection for each variable to 2009 were analyzed using logistic regression analyses that controlled for sex, grade, and race/ethnicity and that simultaneously assessed linear and quadratic time effects (12). Quadratic trends indicate a significant but nonlinear trend in the data over time. Trends that include significant linear and quadratic components demonstrate nonlinear variation (e.g., leveling off or change in direction) in addition to an overall increase or decrease over time. Trends are described only for variables with significant temporal changes from the earliest year of data collection to 2009 or during 2007--2009.

        Discussion

        YRBSS is the largest public health surveillance system in the United States monitoring a broad range of health-risk behaviors among high school students. In addition to describing the prevalence of health-risk behaviors, YRBSS data are used widely to compare health-risk behavior prevalence among subpopulations of students, assess trends in health-risk behaviors over time, monitor progress toward achieving national health objectives, provide comparable state and local data, and evaluate and improve health-related policies and programs.

        Compare Health-Risk Behavior Prevalence Among Student Subpopulations

        Variations in health-risk behaviors among subpopulations of high school students as defined by race/ethnicity and sex can be identified with YRBSS data. For example, white high school students were most likely to have been bullied on school property, engaged in current tobacco use and binge drinking, and ever taken prescription drugs without a doctor's prescription; black high school students were most likely to have ever had sexual intercourse, had sexual intercourse with four or more persons, been physically inactive, and used a computer for 3 or more hours per day; and Hispanic high school students were most likely to have ridden with a driver who had been drinking alcohol, seriously considered attempting suicide, and ever used cocaine, inhalants, ecstasy, and methamphetamines. Variations by sex also were observed. Male high school students were more likely than female high school students to have engaged in current frequent cigarette use, smokeless tobacco use, and cigar use; to have ever used marijuana, cocaine, ecstasy, and heroin; and to have had first sexual intercourse before age 13 years and sexual intercourse with four or more persons during their life. Female high school students were more likely than male high school students to have seriously considered attempting suicide, actually attempted suicide, not eaten fruits and vegetables five or more times per day, been physically inactive, and engaged in unhealthy weight control behaviors.

        However, this analysis could not isolate the effects of these demographic characteristics from the effects of socioeconomic status (SES) or culture on risk behaviors. In a 1992 national study, after controlling for age, sex, race/ethnicity, and school enrollment status (i.e., in school or out of school), adolescents aged 12--17 years were less likely to report selected risk behaviors (e.g., smoking, physical inactivity, eating too little fruit and vegetables, and binge drinking) as the SES (based on education or family income) of the responsible adult in their family increased (13). Additional research is needed to assess the effect of specific educational, socioeconomic, cultural, and racial/ethnic factors on the prevalence of health-risk behaviors among high school students.

        Assessing Trends in Health-Risk Behaviors Over Time

        Long-term trends in health-risk behaviors can be assessed using YRBSS data. Since 1991, substantial progress has been made in decreasing the prevalence of many health-risk behaviors among high school students nationwide, including rarely or never wearing a seat belt, riding with a driver who has been drinking alcohol, ever using cigarettes, ever drinking alcohol, and ever having sexual intercourse. However, the percentage of high school students nationwide who are obese increased during 1999--2009 and who use a computer for 3 or more hours per day increased during 2003--2009. Emerging behavior patterns can be detected by examining changes during 2007--2009. For example, one encouraging change was a decrease in the percentage of students who drank soda or pop at least one time per day. However, one concerning change was a decrease in the percentage of students who had ever been taught in school about AIDS or HIV infection.

        Monitoring Progress Toward Achieving National Health Objectives

        The national YRBS is the primary source of data to measure 15 Healthy People 2010 objectives and three leading health indicators (14). The Healthy People 2010 objectives provided a comprehensive agenda for improving the health of all persons in the United States during the first decade of the 21st century. This report provides the 2010 target and data from the 2009 national YRBS for all 15 objectives (Table 104). The data indicate that as of 2009 only two of the 15 Healthy People 2010 objectives have been achieved. Healthy People 2010 objective 15-38 is to reduce physical fighting among adolescents to at least 32%. In 2009, 31.5% of high school students nationally had been in a physical fight one or more times during the 12 months before the survey. Healthy People 2010 objective 26-6 is to reduce the proportion of adolescents who report that they rode with a driver who had been drinking alcohol to at least 30.0%. In 2009, 28.3% of high school students nationally had ridden in a car or other vehicle driven by someone who had been drinking alcohol during the 30 days before the survey. To obtain certain Healthy People 2010 objectives, substantial progress must still be made. For example, the Healthy People 2010 objective for participation in daily physical education classes is 50%, but as of 2009, only 33.3% of high school students nationally participated in daily physical education classes. To reach the Healthy People 2010 goals, additional support is needed for coordinated, comprehensive school health programs.

        Provide Comparable State and Local Data

        Because all state and local surveys share similar sampling, questionnaires, data collection, and data-processing procedures, it is possible to compare state and local YRBS data. For the majority of health-risk behaviors, prevalence does not vary substantially across states or across cities. However, across state surveys, a range of 25 or more percentage points or a fivefold variation or greater was identified for the following risk behaviors:

        • rarely or never wore a bicycle helmet (minimum: 62.4%; maximum: 94.4%);
        • carried a gun (minimum: 1.8%; maximum: 11.5%);
        • ever smoked cigarettes (minimum: 23.5%; maximum: 59.0%);
        • tried to quit smoking cigarettes (minimum: 38.8%; maximum: 67.4%);
        • bought cigarettes in a store or gas station (minimum: 4.5%; maximum: 26.1%);
        • ever drank alcohol (minimum: 38.6%; maximum: 76.2%);
        • current alcohol use (minimum: 18.2%; maximum: 47.5%);
        • Depo-Provera use (minimum: 1.0%; maximum: 7.3%);
        • drank soda or pop at least one time per day (minimum: 14.5%; maximum: 41.3%);
        • watched television 3 or more hours per day (minimum: 16.3%; maximum: 44.9%);
        • attended physical education classes (minimum: 29.1%; maximum: 92.0%); and
        • attended physical education classes daily (minimum: 5.4%; maximum: 67.5%).

        Across local surveys, a range of 25 or more percentage points or a fivefold variation or greater was identified for the following health-risk behaviors:

        • rarely or never wore a seat belt (minimum: 4.1%; maximum: 28.7%);
        • rarely or never wore a bicycle helmet (minimum: 51.7%; maximum: 95.8%);
        • in a physical fight (minimum: 21.8%; maximum: 49.0%);
        • smoked more than 10 cigarettes per day (minimum: 1.6%; maximum: 15.2%);
        • tried to quit smoking cigarettes (minimum: 36.9%; maximum: 65.0%);
        • ever used marijuana (minimum: 26.5%; maximum: 51.9%;
        • ever used heroin (minimum: 1.7%; maximum: 11.1%);
        • ever used methamphetamines (minimum: 2.3%; maximum: 12.2%);
        • ever had sexual intercourse (minimum: 28.7%; maximum: 63.5%);
        • currently sexually active (minimum: 20.5%; maximum: 46.5%);
        • Depo-Provera use (minimum: 1.1%; maximum: 12.1%);
        • watched television 3 or more hours per day (minimum: 27.7%; maximum: 59.6%);
        • attended physical education classes (minimum: 35.5%; maximum: 81.1%); and
        • attended physical education classes daily (minimum: 8.4%; maximum: 46.4%).

        These variations might occur, in part, because of differences in state and local laws and policies, enforcement practices, access to illegal drugs, availability of effective school and community interventions, prevailing behavioral and social norms, demographic characteristics of the population, and adult practices. Longitudinal research is needed to better understand the effect of these factors on the development and prevalence of health-risk behaviors.

        Evaluate and Improve Health-Related Policies and Programs

        CDC and other federal agencies use national YRBS data to evaluate components of CDC's Performance Plan in compliance with the Government Performance and Results Act (15) and to evaluate the contribution of HIV prevention and chronic disease prevention efforts toward helping the nation reduce health-risk behaviors among youth.

        State and local agencies and nongovernmental organizations use YRBS data to improve health-related policies and programs. For example, Orange County, Florida used YRBS data in posters created for National Latino AIDS Awareness Day, which were distributed to human sexuality education teachers, HIV prevention partners, and health clinics. In Texas, YRBS data on physical activity and obesity were used to support legislation for the Physical Fitness Assessment Initiative, which requires all Texas schools to use the FITNESSGRAM annually to measure the fitness of students in grades 3--12. In Mississippi, the Department of Mental Health used YRBS data to identify underage drinking as a priority health issue. The department applied for and received the Strategic Prevention Framework State Incentive Grant from the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration and the Center for Substance Abuse Prevention. In Wyoming, YRBS data on alcohol use were used to help keep the minimum legal drinking age at 21 and are being used to support an amendment to a bill addressing underage use and possession of alcohol.

        Limitations

        The findings in this report are subject to at least three limitations. First, these data apply only to youth who attend school and, therefore, are not representative of all persons in this age group. Nationwide, in 2007, of persons aged 16--17 years, approximately 4% were not enrolled in a high school program and had not completed high school (16). Second, the extent of underreporting or overreporting of behaviors cannot be determined, although the survey questions demonstrate good test-retest reliability (8). Third, BMI is calculated on the basis of self-reported height and weight, and, therefore, tends to underestimate the prevalence of obesity and overweight (17).

        Conclusion

        The results of this report indicate a need for continued monitoring of health-risk behaviors among high school students nationally and at the state and local levels. In 2009, 42 states and 20 large urban school districts collected YRBS data representative of their high school students attending public schools. Increased support for YRBSS within the five states with unweighted data and expansion of YRBSS among additional large urban school districts will help monitor and ensure effectiveness of public health and school health policies and practices for youth nationwide at both the state and local levels.
