Proposed Project

    Study to Examine Web-Based Administration of the Youth Risk 
Behavior Survey--New--National Center for Chronic Disease Prevention 
and Health Promotion (NCCDPHP), Centers for Disease Control and 
Prevention (CDC).

Background and Brief Description

    The Youth Risk Behavior Survey (YRBS) has been conducted biennially 
since 1991 using paper-and-pencil questionnaires in schools. Because of 
technological improvements in survey research methods, CDC is 
considering changing to Web-based administration of the YRBS. Because 
YRBS is the only national source of data for at least 10 national 
health objectives in Healthy People 2010, it is critical to understand 
(1) whether it is feasible to change to web-based administration, and 
(2) how a change to web-based administration, both with and without the 
use of skip patterns in the questionnaire, might affect prevalence 
estimates of the priority health risk behaviors reported in the YRBS.
    CDC is proposing two studies to address these issues. The first 
study is a survey of U.S. high school principals, using a questionnaire 
designed to assess the feasibility and burden of web-based 
administration in schools. The second study is a survey of 
approximately 6000 9th- and 10th-grade students attending schools in 
the United States, using the YRBS questionnaire. In the second study, 
students will be assigned randomly to one of the following conditions: 
(1) Paper-and-pencil group administration without skip patterns, (2) 
web-based group administration without skip patterns, (3) web-based 
group administration with skip patterns, and (4) web-based individual 
administration without skip patterns. An additional 1500 9th- and 10th-
grade students assigned to condition 4 will participate in a 
sub-study to assess how incentives affect participation rates.
    There are no costs to respondents except their time to participate 
in the survey and, in the case of school administrators, to assist in 
school recruitment.
