Abstract
Problem: Priority health-risk behaviors contribute to the leading causes of morbidity and mortality among youth and adults. Population-based data on these behaviors at the national, state, and local levels can help monitor the effectiveness of public health interventions designed to protect and promote the health of youth nationwide.
Reporting Period Covered: September 2012–December 2013.
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 infections (STIs), 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 large urban school district school-based YRBSs conducted by state and local education and health agencies. This report summarizes results for 104 health-risk behaviors plus obesity, overweight, and asthma from the 2013 national survey, 42 state surveys, and 21 large urban school district surveys conducted among students in grades 9–12.
Results: Results from the 2013 national YRBS indicated that many high school students are engaged in priority health-risk behaviors associated with the leading causes of death among persons aged 10–24 years in the United States. During the 30 days before the survey, 41.4% of high school students nationwide among the 64.7% who drove a car or other vehicle during the 30 days before the survey had texted or e-mailed while driving, 34.9% had drunk alcohol, and 23.4% had used marijuana. During the 12 months before the survey, 14.8% had been electronically bullied, 19.6% had been bullied on school property, and 8.0% had attempted suicide. Many high school students nationwide are engaged in sexual risk behaviors that contribute to unintended pregnancies and STIs, including HIV infection. Nearly half (46.8%) of students had ever had sexual intercourse, 34.0% had had sexual intercourse during the 3 months before the survey (i.e., currently sexually active), and 15.0% had had sexual intercourse with four or more persons during their life. Among currently sexually active students, 59.1% had used a condom during their last sexual intercourse. Results from the 2013 national YRBS also indicate many high school students are engaged in behaviors associated with chronic diseases, such as cardiovascular disease, cancer, and diabetes. During the 30 days before the survey, 15.7% of high school students had smoked cigarettes and 8.8% had used smokeless tobacco. During the 7 days before the survey, 5.0% of high school students had not eaten fruit or drunk 100% fruit juices and 6.6% had not eaten vegetables. More than one-third (41.3%) had played video or computer games or used a computer for something that was not school work for 3 or more hours per day on an average school day.
Interpretation: Many high school students engage in behaviors that place them at risk for the leading causes of morbidity and mortality. The prevalence of most health-risk behaviors varies by sex, race/ethnicity, and grade and across states and large urban school districts. Long term temporal changes also have occurred. Since the earliest year of data collection, the prevalence of most health-risk behaviors has decreased (e.g., physical fighting, current cigarette use, and current sexual activity), but the prevalence of other health-risk behaviors has not changed (e.g., suicide attempts treated by a doctor or nurse, having ever used marijuana, and having drunk alcohol or used drugs before last sexual intercourse) or has increased (e.g., having not gone to school because of safety concern and obesity and overweight).
Public Health Action: YRBSS data are used widely to compare the prevalence of health-risk behaviors among subpopulations of students; assess trends in health-risk behaviors over time; monitor progress toward achieving 20 national health objectives for Healthy People 2020 and one of the 26 leading health indicators; provide comparable state and large urban school district data; and help develop and evaluate school and community policies, programs, and practices designed to decrease health-risk behaviors and improve health outcomes among youth.
Introduction
In the United States, 70% of all deaths among youth and young adults aged 10–24 years result from four causes: motor vehicle crashes (23%), other unintentional injuries (18%), homicide (15%), and suicide (15%) (1). Among youth aged 15–19 years, substantial morbidity and social problems also result from the estimated 329,772 births (2); 548,032 cases of chlamydia, gonorrhea, and syphilis (3); and 2,240 cases of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) (4) reported annually. Among adults aged ≥25 years, 57% of all deaths in the United States result from cardiovascular disease (33%) 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 sexually transmitted infections (STIs), including 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 large urban school district Youth Risk Behavior Surveys (YRBS) conducted among representative samples of students in grades 9–12. National, state, and large urban school district surveys have been conducted biennially since 1991 (Table 1). Additional information about the YRBSS is available at http://www.cdc.gov/yrbs.
This report summarizes results for 104 health-risk behaviors plus obesity, overweight, and asthma from the 2013 national YRBS and overall trends in health-risk behaviors during 1991–2013. Data from the 42 state and 21 large urban school district surveys with weighted data for the 2013 YRBSS cycle (Figure) also are included in this report. Data from five states and one large urban school district survey with unweighted data are not included. Among those with weighted data for 2013, one state and two large urban school district surveys were conducted during fall 2012; the national survey, 38 states, and 18 large urban school district surveys were conducted during spring 2013; and three states and one large urban school district survey were conducted during fall 2013.
Methods
Detailed information about the methodology of the national, state, and large urban school district YRBSs has been described elsewhere (5).
Sampling
National Youth Risk Behavior Survey
The sampling frame for the 2013 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) 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., urban city) and the percentages of black and Hispanic students in the PSUs. From the 1,276 PSUs, 54 were sampled with probability proportional to overall school enrollment size for the PSU.
In the second stage of sampling, 193 schools with any of grades 9–12 were sampled with probability proportional to school enrollment size. The third stage of sampling consisted of random 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, two classes per grade, rather than one, were sampled in schools with a high minority enrollment. In the past, three strategies were used to oversample black and Hispanic 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. Because of increases in the proportions of black and Hispanic students in the population, only selection of two classes per grade was needed in 2013 to achieve adequate precision with minimum variance.
State and Large Urban School District Youth Risk Behaviors
In 2013, a two-stage cluster sample design was used to produce a representative sample of public§ school students in grades 9–12 in 39 states and 21 large urban school districts and of public and private¶ school students in grades 9–12 in three states (Ohio, South Dakota, and Vermont). 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 four large urban school districts; all schools with any of grades 9–12 were invited to participate in two states and 17 large urban school districts. In the second sampling stage, 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 in 41 states and 20 large urban school districts, and all students in the sampled classes were eligible to participate. In one state and one large urban school district, all students in sampled schools were eligible to participate.
Data Collection Procedures and Questionnaires
Survey procedures for the national, state, and large urban school district 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 2013 YRBS standard questionnaire contained 86 questions. For the national questionnaire, the following six questions were added to the standard questionnaire: ever use of hallucinogenic drugs, tested for HIV, participation in muscle strengthening activities, routine sunscreen use, indoor tanning device use, and number of hours of sleep on an average school night. Because these questions are only on the national questionnaire, state and large urban school district data are not available for any variables based on these questions. In addition to four demographic questions and two questions assessing height and weight, the remaining questions on the standard questionnaire and the national questionnaire measured behaviors practiced or experienced by the student (referred to as "behaviors"). States and large urban school districts could add and/or delete questions from the standard questionnaire. Skip patterns, which occur when a particular response to one question indicates to the respondents that they should not answer one or more subsequent questions, 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 large urban school districts, only data from standard questions are presented in this report. Information about the reliability of the standard questionnaire has been published elsewhere (8). The standard and national YRBS questionnaires are available at http://www.cdc.gov/healthyyouth/yrbs/questionnaire_rationale.htm.
Data Processing Procedures and Response Rates
For the 2013 national YRBS, 13,633 questionnaires were completed in 148 public and private schools. The national data set was cleaned and edited for inconsistencies. Missing data were not statistically imputed. Among the 13,633 completed questionnaires, 50 failed quality control** and were excluded from analysis, resulting in 13,583 usable questionnaires (Table 2). The school response rate was 77%, the student response rate was 88%, and the overall response rate was 68%†† (Table 2).
Data from each state and large urban school district survey were cleaned and edited for inconsistencies with the same procedures used for the national data set. The percentage of completed questionnaires that failed quality control checks and were excluded from analysis ranged from .06% to 4.56% (median: 0.56%) across the 42 states and from 0.07% to 4.55% (median: 1.05%) across the 21 large urban school districts. The student sample sizes ranged from 1,107 to 53,785 (median: 1,987) across the states and from 1,102 to 10,778 (median: 1,581) across the large urban school districts (Table 2). Among the states, the school response rates ranged from 70% to 100%, student response rates ranged from 60% to 94%, and overall response rates ranged from 60% to 87%. Among the large urban school districts, the school response rates ranged from 89% to 100%, student response rates ranged from 69% to 90%, and overall response rates ranged from 68% to 90% (Table 2).
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 population-level estimates of obesity and overweight.
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 schools in the United States.
Data from states and large urban school districts that had a representative sample of students, appropriate documentation, and an overall response rate of ≥60% were weighted. A weight was applied to each record to adjust for school and student nonresponse and the distribution of students by grade, sex, and race/ethnicity in each jurisdiction, such that the weighted count of students equals the student population in each jurisdiction. Data from 42 state and 21 large urban school districts were weighted. In 39 states and all large urban school districts, weighted estimates are representative of all students in grades 9–12 attending public schools in each jurisdiction. In three states (Ohio, South Dakota, and Vermont), weighted estimates are representative of all students in grades 9–12 attending public and private schools in each jurisdiction.
Analytic Methods
Statistical analyses were conducted on weighted data using SAS (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 (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) and for interactions (sex by race/ethnicity, sex by grade, race/ethnicity by sex, and grade by sex). In the results section, only statistically significant differences in prevalence estimates are reported in the following order: sex, sex by race/ethnicity, sex by grade, race/ethnicity, race/ethnicity by sex, grade, and grade by sex.
To identify long-term temporal changes in health-risk behaviors nationwide, prevalence estimates from the earliest year of data collection to 2013 for each variable assessed with identically worded questions in three or more survey years were examined. Logistic regression analyses were used to account for all available estimates; control for sex, grade, and racial/ ethnic changes over time; and assess linear and quadratic time effects (12). Linear and quadratic time variables were treated as continuous and were coded using orthogonal coefficients calculated with PROC IML in SAS. Separate regression models were used to assess linear and quadratic time trends for every variable. When a significant quadratic trend was detected, Joinpoint software (13) was used to automate identification of the year or "joinpoint" where the nonlinear (i.e., quadratic) trend changed and then regression models were used to assess linear trends occurring in each segment. Cubic and higher order time effects were not assessed. A quadratic time effect indicates a significant but nonlinear trend in prevalence over time. A temporal change that includes a significant linear and quadratic time effect demonstrates nonlinear variation (e.g., leveling off or change in direction) in addition to an overall increase or decrease over time. In addition, to identify 2-year temporal changes in health-risk behaviors nationwide, prevalence estimates from 2011 and 2013 were compared using t tests for each variable assessed with identically worded questions in both survey years. Prevalence estimates were considered statistically different if the t test p value was <0.05.
In the results section, linear and quadratic trends are described followed by results from the t tests used to assess 2-year temporal changes. Information about long term trends and more recent changes are not available due to changes in question or response option wording or because the question was asked for the first time during 2013 for the following variables: drove when drinking alcohol; texted or e-mailed while driving; physical dating violence; sexual dating violence; largest number of drinks in a row was 10 or more; IUD or implant use; and shot, patch, or birth control ring use.
Results
Behaviors that Contribute to Unintentional Injuries
Never or Rarely Wore a Bicycle Helmet
Among the 67.0% of students nationwide who had ridden a bicycle during the 12 months before the survey, 87.9% had never or rarely worn a bicycle helmet (Table 3). The prevalence of having never or rarely worn a bicycle helmet was higher among male (88.6%) than female (87.0%) students and higher among black male (96.2%) and Hispanic male (93.7%) than black female (90.6%) and Hispanic female (90.9%) students, respectively. The prevalence of having never or rarely worn a bicycle helmet was higher among black (93.9%) and Hispanic (92.4%) than white (85.7%) students, higher among Hispanic female (90.9%) than white female (85.7%) students, higher among black male (96.2%) and Hispanic male (93.7%) than white male (85.8%) students, and higher among black male (96.2%) than Hispanic male (93.7%) students.
During 1991–2013, a significant linear decrease occurred overall in the prevalence of having never or rarely worn a bicycle helmet (96.2%–87.9%). A significant quadratic trend also was identified. The prevalence of having never or rarely worn a bicycle helmet decreased during 1991–2005 (96.2%–83.4%) and then increased during 2005–2013 (83.4%–87.9%). The prevalence of having never or rarely worn a bicycle helmet did not change significantly from 2011 (87.5%) to 2013 (87.9%).
Across 31 states, the prevalence of having never or rarely worn a bicycle helmet ranged from 60.0% to 93.2% (median: 87.7%) (Table 4). Across 16 large urban school districts, the prevalence ranged from 75.1% to 93.6% (median: 88.2%).
Never or Rarely Wore a Seat Belt

During 1991–2013, a significant linear decrease occurred overall in the prevalence of having never or rarely worn a seat belt (25.9%–7.6%). A significant quadratic trend was not identified. The prevalence of having never or rarely worn a seat belt did not change significantly from 2011 (7.7%) to 2013 (7.6%).
Across 40 states, the prevalence of having never or rarely worn a seat belt ranged from 5.6% to 16.1% (median: 8.7%) (Table 4). Across 19 large urban school districts, the prevalence ranged from 4.7% to 25.0% (median: 10.3%).
Rode with a Driver Who Had Been Drinking Alcohol
During the 30 days before the survey, 21.9% of students nationwide had ridden one or more times in a car or other vehicle driven by someone who had been drinking alcohol (Table 5). The prevalence of having ridden with a driver who had been drinking alcohol was higher among black female (24.8%) than black male (18.9%) students. The prevalence of having ridden with a driver who had been drinking alcohol was higher among Hispanic (29.1%) than white (19.7%) and black (21.9%) students, higher among Hispanic female (29.2%) than white female (19.9%) and black female (24.8%) students, higher among black female (24.8%) than white female (19.9%) students, and higher among Hispanic male (28.9%) than white male (19.6%) and black male (18.9%) students.

Across 15 large urban school districts, the prevalence ranged from 18.9% to 42.6% (median: 34.9%).
Behaviors that Contribute to Violence
Carried a Weapon
Nationwide, 17.9% of students had carried a weapon (e.g., gun, knife, or club) on at least one day during the 30 days before the survey (Table 9). The prevalence of having carried a weapon was higher among male (28.1%) than female (7.9%) students; higher among white male (33.4%), black male (18.2%), and Hispanic male (23.8%) than white female (8.3%), black female (7.2%), and Hispanic female (7.7%) students, respectively; and higher among 9th-grade male (26.4%), 10th-grade male (26.4%), 11th-grade male (30.5%), and 12th-grade male (29.5%) than 9th-grade female (8.6%), 10th-grade female (9.2%), 11th-grade female (5.9%), and 12th-grade female (7.5%) students, respectively. The prevalence of having carried a weapon was higher among white (20.8%) than black (12.5%) and Hispanic (15.5%) students, higher among Hispanic (15.5%) than black (12.5%) students, higher among white male (33.4%) than black male (18.2%) and Hispanic male (23.8%) students, and higher among Hispanic male (23.8%) than black male (18.2%) students. The prevalence of having carried a weapon was higher among 10th-grade female (9.2%) than 11th-grade female (5.9%) students.
During 1991–2013, a significant linear decrease occurred overall in the prevalence of having carried a weapon (26.1%–17.9%). A significant quadratic trend also was identified.

Because of changes in question context starting in 2011, national YRBS prevalence estimates derived from the 60 minutes of physical activity question in 2011 and 2013 are not comparable to those reported in 2009 or earlier. On the 2005–2009 national YRBS questionnaire, physical activity was assessed with three questions (in the following order) that asked the number of days students participated in 1) at least 20 minutes of vigorous physical activity; 2) at least 30 minutes of moderate physical activity; and 3) at least 60 minutes of aerobic (moderate and vigorous) physical activity. On the 2011 and 2013 national YRBS questionnaire, only the 60 minutes of aerobic physical activity question was included. Consequently, linear and quadratic trends are not available. The prevalence of not having participated in at least 60 minutes of physical activity on at least 1 day did not change significantly from 2011 (13.8%) to 2013 (15.2%).
Across 41 states, the prevalence of not having participated in at least 60 minutes of physical activity on at least 1 day ranged from 10.0% to 22.8% (median: 15.0%) (Table 96). Across 21 large urban school districts, the prevalence ranged from 14.2% to 28.9% (median: 21.3%).

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. YRBSS data are used widely to compare the prevalence of health-risk behaviors among subpopulations of students; assess trends in health-risk behaviors over time; monitor progress toward achieving national health objectives; provide comparable state and large urban school district data; and help develop, assess, and improve school and community policies, programs, and practices designed to decrease health-risk behaviors and improve health outcomes among youth. Because of its broad scope, YRBSS also allows analysis of the inter-relationships among health-risk behaviors (e.g., how alcohol and other drug use is associated with behaviors that contribute to violence) and a more complete understanding of how health-risk behaviors cluster among various subpopulations of students (e.g., whether tobacco use or sexual behaviors are more likely to occur among males than females or in certain regions of the country). Although these analyses are beyond the scope of this report, they are a particular strength of YRBSS as compared with more narrowly focused surveys.
Compare Health-Risk Behavior Prevalence Among Subpopulations of Students
YRBSS is designed to identify how health-risk behaviors vary by subpopulations of high school students defined by sex and race/ethnicity. Understanding of these variations (or lack of variation) in health-risk behaviors might help design, target, and identify the impact of school and community policies, programs, and practices. However, YRBSS data cannot isolate the effects of sex and race/ethnicity from the effects of socioeconomic status (SES) or culture on the prevalence of health risk behaviors. In a national study, the likelihood of behavioral cardiovascular disease risks, including obesity, sedentary behaviors, and tobacco exposure, increased among adolescents aged 12–17 years as the SES based on poverty-income ratio decreased (14).
Variations by Sex
On the basis of the 2013 national YRBS data, prevalence estimates for many health-risk behaviors are different between male and female students. For example, male students were more likely than female students to report three of the five health-risk behaviors that contribute to unintentional injuries (never or rarely wearing a bicycle helmet, never or rarely wearing a seat belt, and driving when drinking alcohol). However, male and female students were equally likely to report two health-risk behaviors that contribute to unintentional injuries (riding with a driver who had been drinking alcohol and texting or e-mailing while driving).
Male students also were more likely than female students to report seven violence-related behaviors (carrying a weapon, carrying a gun, carrying a weapon on school property, being threatened or injured with a weapon on school property, being in a physical fight, being injured in a physical fight, and being in a physical fight on school property). However, female students were more likely than male students to report not going to school because of safety concerns, being electronically bullied, being bullied on school property, being forced to have sexual intercourse, experiencing physical dating violence, and experiencing sexual dating violence. Female students also were more likely than male students to report all five suicide-related behaviors (feeling sad or hopeless, seriously considering attempting suicide, making a suicide plan, attempting suicide, and making a suicide attempt that resulted in an injury, poisoning, or overdose that had to be treated by a doctor or nurse).
Male students were more likely than female students to report seven of the 13 tobacco use behaviors (ever smoking cigarettes, smoking a whole cigarette before age 13 years, smoking more than 10 cigarettes per day, buying cigarettes in a store or gas station, current smokeless tobacco use, current cigar use, and current tobacco use). Trying to quit smoking cigarettes was the only tobacco use behavior more likely to be reported by female students than male students. However, five tobacco use behaviors did not vary by sex (current cigarette use, current frequent cigarette use, smoking cigarettes on school property, ever smoking cigarettes daily, and currently smoking cigarettes daily).
Male students were more likely than female students to report 12 of the 19 alcohol and other drug use behaviors (drinking alcohol before age 13 years; having 10 or more as the largest number of drinks in a row; ever using marijuana; trying marijuana before age 13 years; current marijuana use; ever using cocaine; ever using hallucinogenic drugs; ever using ecstasy; ever using heroin; ever taking steroids without a doctor's prescription; ever injecting any illegal drug; and being offered, sold, or given an illegal drug on school property). In contrast, female students were more likely than male students to report only three of the 19 alcohol and other drug use behaviors (ever drinking alcohol, drinking alcohol before age 13 years, and ever using inhalants).
Male students were more likely than female students to report three sexual behaviors that increase risk for unintended pregnancy and sexually transmitted infections, including HIV infection (having sexual intercourse before age 13 years, having sexual intercourse with four or more persons during their life, and drinking alcohol or using drugs before last sexual intercourse). Male students were more likely than female students to report one behavior (using a condom) that reduces risk for unintended pregnancy and sexually transmitted infections, including HIV infection. However, female students were more likely than male students to report five other behaviors that reduce risk (using birth control pills; using a shot, patch, or birth control ring; using birth control pills, an IUD or implant, or a shot, patch, or birth control ring; using a condom and birth control pills, an IUD or implant, or a shot, patch, or birth control ring; and being tested for HIV) and one behavior that increases risk (not using any method to prevent pregnancy).
Male students were more likely than female students to report 14 of 18 dietary behaviors (eating fruit or drinking 100% fruit juices zero, one or more, two or more, and three or more times per day; eating vegetables zero, two or more, and three or more times per day; drinking one or more, two or more, and three or more glasses per day of milk; drinking soda or pop one or more, two or more, and three or more times per day; and eating breakfast on all 7 days before the survey). Female students were more likely than male students to report two dietary behaviors (not drinking milk and not drinking soda or pop during the 7 days before the survey).
Male students were more likely than female students to report six behaviors that increase overall physical activity (being physically active at least 60 minutes per day on 5 or more days, being physically active at least 60 minutes per day on all 7 days, participating in muscle strengthening activities on 3 or more days; attending physical education classes, attending physical education classes daily, and playing on at least one sports team). However, female students were more likely than male students to not participate in at least 60 minutes of physical activity on any day. Playing video or computer games or using computers and watching television 3 or more hours per day did not vary by sex.
Although male students were more likely than female students to be obese, female students were more likely than male students to report all three unsafe weight loss behaviors (not eating for ≥24 hours to lose weight or to keep from gaining weight; taking diet pills, powders, or liquids to lose weight or to keep from gaining weight; and vomiting or taking laxatives to lose weight or to keep from gaining weight).
Variations by Race/Ethnicity
On the basis of the 2013 national YRBS data, prevalence estimates for many health-risk behaviors vary by race/ethnicity. White students were more likely than black and Hispanic students to report 23 behaviors, black students were more likely than white and Hispanic students to report 14 behaviors, and Hispanic students were more likely than white and black students to report 19 behaviors. Fourteen behaviors did not vary by race/ethnicity.
More specifically, white students were more likely than black and Hispanic students to report one behavior that contributes to unintentional injuries (texting or emailing while driving); three violence-related behaviors (carrying a weapon, being electronically bullied, and being bullied on school property); eight tobacco use behaviors (current cigarette use, current frequent cigarette use, smoking more than 10 cigarettes per day, smoking cigarettes on school property, ever smoking cigarettes daily, currently smoking cigarettes daily, current smokeless tobacco use, and current tobacco use); three sexual behaviors (using birth control pills; using birth control pills, an IUD or implant, or a shot, patch, or birth control ring; and using a condom and birth control pills, an IUD or implant, or a shot, patch, or birth control ring); five dietary behaviors (eating vegetables one or more times per day; drinking one or more, two or more, and three or more glasses per day of milk; and eating breakfast all 7 days); one physical activity behavior (being physically active at least 60 minutes per day on 5 or more days); and two other behaviors (using sunscreen routinely and using indoor tanning devices).
Black students were more likely than white and Hispanic students to report two violence-related behaviors (being in a physical fight and being in a physical fight on school property); one tobacco use behavior (trying to quit smoking cigarettes); six sexual behaviors (ever having sexual intercourse, having sexual intercourse before age 13 years, having sexual intercourse with four or more persons during their life, current sexual activity, using a condom, and being tested for HIV); three dietary behaviors (not eating fruit or drinking 100% fruit juices, not drinking milk, and drinking soda or pop three or more times per day); and one physical activity behavior (not participating in at least 60 minutes of physical activity on any day) and ever having asthma.
Hispanic students were more likely than white and black students to report one behavior that contributes to unintentional injuries (riding with a driver who had been drinking alcohol); all five suicide-related behaviors (feeling sad or hopeless; seriously considering attempting suicide; making a suicide plan; attempting suicide; and making a suicide attempt that resulted in an injury, poisoning, or overdose that had to be treated by a doctor or nurse); eight alcohol and other drug use behaviors (ever drinking alcohol; ever using cocaine; ever using inhalants; ever using ecstasy; ever using heroin; ever using methamphetamines; ever taking steroids without a doctor's prescription; and being offered, sold, or given an illegal drug on school property); one physical activity behavior (attending physical education classes); and four weight control behaviors (trying to lose weight, not eating for ≥24 hours to lose weight or to keep from gaining weight; taking diet pills, powders, or liquids to lose weight or to keep from gaining weight; and vomiting or taking laxatives to lose weight or to keep from gaining weight).
White, black, and Hispanic students were equally likely to report three violence-related behaviors (carrying a gun, experiencing physical dating violence, and experiencing sexual dating violence); two tobacco use behaviors (buying cigarettes in a store or gas station and current cigar use); one alcohol and other drug use behavior (ever injecting any illegal drug); three sexual behaviors (using an IUD or implant; using a shot, patch, or birth control ring; and drinking alcohol or using drugs before last sexual intercourse); two dietary behaviors (eating vegetables two or more time per day and not drinking soda or pop); and two physical activity variables (being physically active at least 60 minutes per day on all 7 days and playing on at least one sports team) and being obese.
Assess Trends in Health-Risk Behaviors Over Time
YRBSS data can be used to assess long term trends and more recent changes in health-risk behaviors. This report identifies many linear increases and decreases that reflect long term reductions in risk behaviors and potential improvements in health outcomes. Quadratic trends might reflect more recent changes.
More specifically, linear decreases occurred for all three behaviors (for which trend data were available) that contribute to unintentional injuries (never or rarely wearing a bicycle helmet, never or rarely wearing a seat belt, and riding with a driver who had been drinking alcohol). Linear decreases also occurred for seven of the 11 violence-related behaviors (for which trend data were available) (carrying a weapon, carrying a gun, carrying a weapon on school property, being threatened or injured with a weapon on school property, being in a physical fight, being injured in a physical fight, and being in a physical fight on school property) and three of the five behaviors related to suicide (seriously considering attempting suicide, making a suicide plan, and attempting suicide) and a linear increase occurred for one violence-related behavior (not going to school because of safety concerns). Unfortunately, quadratic trends indicate that weapon carrying and gun carrying leveled off more recently and never or rarely wearing a bicycle helmet, seriously considering attempting suicide, and making a suicide plan increased more recently.
Linear decreases occurred for 11 of the 13 tobacco use behaviors (ever smoking cigarettes, smoking a whole cigarette before age 13 years, current cigarette use, current frequent cigarette use, smoking more than 10 cigarettes per day, smoking cigarettes on school property, buying cigarettes in a store or gas station, ever smoking cigarettes daily, currently smoking cigarettes daily, current cigar use, and current tobacco use). Quadratic trends indicated that eight of these behaviors (ever smoking cigarettes, smoking a whole cigarette before age 13 years, current cigarette use, current frequent cigarette use, smoking cigarettes on school property, currently smoking cigarettes daily, current cigar use, and current tobacco use) also decreased more recently.
Linear decreases occurred for four of the five alcohol use behaviors (for which trend data were available) (ever drinking alcohol, drinking alcohol before age 13 years, current alcohol use, and drinking five or more drinks of alcohol in a row) and quadratic trends indicated more recent decreases as well in these same behaviors. Linear decreases occurred for five of the 13 other drug use behaviors (ever using hallucinogenic drugs; ever using inhalants; ever using ecstasy; ever using methamphetamines; and ever using prescription drugs without a doctor's prescription and being offered, sold, or given an illegal drug on school property), but quadratic trends for two of these behaviors (ever using hallucinogenic drugs and ever using ecstasy) indicated they had leveled off more recently. In addition, although a linear increase occurred for current marijuana use and ever taking steroids without a doctor's prescription, quadratic trends indicated that since 1995 current marijuana use and since 2001 ever taking steroids both decreased.
Across the 12 sexual behaviors (for which trend data were available), linear decreases occurred for five risk behaviors (ever having sexual intercourse, having sexual intercourse before age 13 years, having sexual intercourse with four or more persons during their life, being currently sexually active, and not using any method to prevent pregnancy), while a linear increase occurred for condom use. However, quadratic trends indicated no change more recently for two of the risk behaviors (ever having sexual intercourse and having sexual intercourse with four or more persons during their life) and a decrease in condom use.
Linear decreases that occurred for four dietary behaviors (not eating fruit or drink 100% fruit juices and drinking soda or pop one or more, two or more, and three or more times per day) and linear increases that occurred for two other dietary behaviors (eating vegetables three or more times per day and not drinking or soda or pop) are positive changes. However, linear increases for two dietary behaviors (not eating vegetables and not drinking milk) and linear decreases for drinking one or more, two or more, and three or more glasses of milk per day are negative changes. Similarly, although a decrease occurred for participating in muscle strengthening activities and a linear increase occurred for using computers 3 or more times per day, a linear decrease occurred for watching television 3 or more hours per day. The negative changes in dietary behaviors and physical activity might have contributed to linear increases in obesity and overweight. Linear decreases occurred for two unhealthy weight loss behaviors (taking diet pills, powders, or liquids to lose weight or to keep from gaining weight and vomiting or taking laxatives to lose weight or to keep from gaining weight).
Monitor Progress Toward Achieving National Health Objectives
The national YRBS is the primary source of data to measure 20 Healthy People 2020 objectives, including one leading health indicator (15). The Healthy People 2020 objectives provide a comprehensive agenda for improving the health of all persons in the United States during 2011-2020. This report provides the Healthy People 2020 targets and data from the 2013 national YRBS for 20 objectives (Table 117). The data indicates that, as of 2013, four of the 20 Healthy People 2020 objectives have been achieved. Healthy People 2020 objective C-20.3 is to reduce the proportion of adolescents in grades 9–12 who report using artificial sources of ultraviolet light for tanning to ≤14.0%. During 2013, 12.8% of high school students nationwide had used an indoor tanning device (e.g., sunlamp, sunbed, or tanning booth) one or more times during the 12 months before the survey. Healthy People 2020 objective IVP-34 is to reduce physical fighting among adolescents to ≤28.4%. In 2013, 24.7% of high school students nationwide had been in a physical fight one or more times during the 12 months before the survey. Healthy People 2020 objective SA-1 is to reduce the proportion of adolescents who report that they rode, during the previous 30 days, with a driver who had been drinking alcohol to ≤25.5%. During 2013, 21.9% of high school students nationwide had rode in a car or other vehicle driven by someone who had been drinking alcohol one or more times during the 30 days before the survey. Healthy People 2020 objective TU-2.2 is to reduce the proportion of adolescents who use cigarettes during the past 30 days to ≤16.0%. During 2013, 15.7% of high school students smoked cigarettes on at least one day during the 30 days before the survey. Although the table indicates that Healthy People 2020 objective PA-3.1 to increase the proportion of adolescents who meet current federal physical activity guidelines for aerobic activity has been met, the 2013 YRBS prevalence estimate for aerobic physical activity is not comparable to the baseline prevalence estimate upon which the target was set because of a change in the context of the question starting with the 2011 national YRBS questionnaire.
To obtain additional Healthy People 2020 objectives, positive changes in school and community policies, programs, and practices might be needed. For example, Healthy People 2020 objective PA-5 is to increase the proportion of adolescents who participate in daily school physical education to ≥36.6%. During 2013, only 29.4% of high school students nationwide met this objective. Similarly, Healthy People 2020 objective PA-8.3.3 is to increase the proportion of adolescents in grades 9–12 who use a computer or play computer games outside of school (for non-school work) for no more than 2 hours a day to ≥82.6%. During 2013, only 58.7% of high school students nationwide met this objective.
Provide Comparable State and Large Urban School District Data
One of the strengths of YRBSS is that it provides not just national, but state and large urban school district data. These data are more likely to be used to develop, improve, and evaluate state and local policies, programs, and practices because they reflect a more relevant population. It is also possible to compare data from the state and large urban school district surveys because they share similar sample designs, questionnaires, data collection procedures, and data processing procedures.
Across states, a range of 25 or more percentage points or a fivefold variation or greater was identified for the following 25 health-risk behaviors:
- never or rarely wore a bicycle helmet (minimum: 60.0%; maximum: 93.2%);
- drove when drinking alcohol (minimum: 2.5%; maximum: 12.6%);
- texted or e-mailed while driving (minimum: 32.3%; maximum: 61.3%);
- ever smoked cigarettes (minimum: 18.3%; maximum: 52.1%);
- current frequent cigarette use (minimum: 1.3%; maximum: 8.9%);
- smoked more than 10 cigarettes per day (minimum: 2.4%; maximum: 15.7%);
- bought cigarettes in a store or gas station (minimum: 4.5%; maximum: 28.7%);
- ever smoked cigarettes daily (minimum: 2.6%; maximum: 13.9%);
- currently smoked cigarettes daily (minimum: 0.9%; maximum: 6.7%);
- current smokeless tobacco use (minimum: 2.6%; maximum: 15.9%);
- current tobacco use (minimum: 5.6%; maximum: 29.7%);
- ever drank alcohol (minimum: 30.7%; maximum: 70.5%);
- current alcohol use (minimum: 11.0%; maximum: 39.3%);
- largest number of drinks in a row was 10 or more (minimum: 1.2%; maximum: 9.0%);
- ever used marijuana (minimum: 16.8%; maximum: 43.3%);
- ever used heroin (minimum: 1.1%; maximum: 7.8%);
- ever used methamphetamines (minimum: 1.6%; maximum: 8.9%);
- ever took steroids without a doctor's prescription (minimum: 1.5%; maximum: 8.8%);
- IUD or implant use (minimum: 0.3%; maximum: 5.0%);
- shot, patch, or birth control ring use (minimum: 1.3%; maximum: 9.5%);
- drank one or more glasses per day of milk (minimum: 26.0%; maximum: 56.4%);
- drank two or more glasses per day of milk (minimum: 14.0%; maximum: 42.4%);
- drank soda or pop one or more times per day (minimum: 12.2%; maximum: 38.0%);
- attended physical education classes (minimum: 30.7%; maximum: 92.7%); and
- attended physical education classes daily (minimum: 4.5%; maximum: 63.6%).
Across large urban school districts, a range of 25 or more percentage points or a fivefold variation or greater was identified for the following 14 health-risk behaviors:
- never or rarely wore a seat belt (minimum: 4.7%; maximum: 25.0%);
- currently smoked cigarettes daily (minimum: 0.4%; maximum: 2.5%);
- ever use marijuana (minimum: 28.2%; maximum: 54.4%);
- ever had sexual intercourse (minimum: 25.8%; maximum: 59.7%);
- IUD or implant use (minimum: 0.3%; maximum: 7.8%);
- shot, patch, or birth control ring use (minimum: 0.5%; maximum: 11.2%);
- birth control pill; IUD or implant; or shot, patch, or birth control ring use (minimum: 10.2%; maximum: 41.4%);
- condom use and birth control pill; IUD or implant; or shot, patch, or birth control ring use (minimum: 2.4%; maximum: 15.7%);
- did not drink milk (minimum: 17.4%; maximum: 42.6%);
- drank one or more glasses per day of milk (minimum: 13.5%; maximum: 39.6%);
- drank soda or pop three or more times per day (minimum: 2.9%; maximum: 15.4%);
- watched television 3 or more hours per day (minimum: 19.3%; maximum: 47.5%);
- attended physical education classes (minimum: 28.4%; maximum: 85.0%); and
- attended physical education classes daily (minimum: 7.8%; maximum: 40.9%).
Across the states, 32% (n = eight) of the health-risk behaviors with a range of 25 or more percentage points or a fivefold variation or greater were related to tobacco use and an additional 28% (n = seven) were related to alcohol and other drug use. Across the large urban school districts, 43% (n = six) of the health-risk behaviors with a range of 25 or more percentage points or a fivefold variation or greater were related to dietary behaviors and physical activity and an additional 36% (n = five) were related to sexual behaviors that contribute to unintended pregnancy and sexually transmitted infections. All of these variations reflect differences in state and local laws and policies, enforcement practices, access to drugs, availability of effective school and community interventions, prevailing behavioral and social norms, demographic characteristics of the population, and adult practices and health-risk behaviors and also highlight how changes in one or more of these factors might contribute to reductions in health-risk behaviors among high school students.
Develop, Assess, and Improve Health-Related Policies, Programs, and Practices
CDC and other federal agencies use national YRBS data to assess the contributions of HIV and other STD prevention and chronic disease prevention efforts designed to reduce health-risk behaviors among youth and, in a variety of reports and publications, to stimulate support for and improvements in public health interventions. At the state and local level, agencies and nongovernmental organizations use YRBS data in a variety of ways to improve health-related policies, programs, and practices. For example, the San Diego Unified School District used YRBS data to identify symptoms of an unhealthy school environment, including feeling unsafe at school or on the way to or from school, feeling sad or hopeless, considering or planning suicide, or having attempted suicide among all students including sexual minority students. This spurred development of a district-wide Bullying, Harassment, and Intimidation Prohibition Policy that complies with federal and state laws and extensively delineates the types of protections addressed. In Kentucky, after reviewing YRBS data on fruit and vegetable consumption, physical activity, and obesity, the Coordinated School Health Program and Kentucky Action for Healthy Kids collaborated to create Students Taking Charge projects in high schools around the state. This initiative trains high school students to assess their school's nutritional and physical activity environment, develop an action plan to improve it, implement their plan using minigrants, and learn how to advocate for healthier school environments and policies. In Philadelphia, YRBS data on sexual behaviors were cited along with data on the prevalence of chlamydia and gonorrhea to help persuade the Philadelphia Department of Health and the School District of Philadelphia to set up an in-school STD screening program to educate students about STDs and identify and treat chlamydia and gonorrhea among high school students.
Limitations
The findings in this report are subject to at least four 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 2009, 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). Fourth, not all states and large urban school districts include all of the standard questions on their YRBS questionnaire. For example, four states (Georgia, Louisiana, Utah, and Virginia) do not ask any questions on sexual risk behaviors.
Conclusions
YRBSS is an ongoing source of high-quality data at the national, state, and large urban school district levels for monitoring health-risk behaviors that contribute to the leading causes of mortality and morbidity among youth and adults in the United States. In 2013, in addition to the national data, 42 states and 21 large urban school districts obtained data representative of high school students in their jurisdiction. These data have been an important tool for planning, implementing, and evaluating public health policies, programs, and practices in schools and communities. Ongoing support for YRBSS, enhanced training and technical assistance for participating state and local health and education agencies, an increase in the number of states with representative data, more substate surveys at the large urban school district and county- or school-district level, and more universal use of all standard questions on YRBSS will help sustain the surveillance system and the quality of the data it produces and ensure that it continues to inform future efforts designed to protect and promote the health of youth nationwide.

* Source: Adapted from U.S. Department of Health and Human Services and Office of Disease Prevention Health Promotion, Healthy People 2020. Washington, DC. Available at http://www.healthypeople.gov. Accessed December 3, 2013. † The target setting method for this objective was a 10% improvement from the baseline; the baseline source was the 2009 national YRBS. However, because of changes in question context starting in 2011, national YRBS prevalence estimates derived from the 60 minutes of physical activity question in 2011 and 2013 are not comparable to those reported in 2009 or earlier. On the 2005–2009 national YRBS questionnaire, physical activity was assessed with three questions (in the following order) that asked the number of days students participated in 1) at least 20 minutes of vigorous physical activity; 2) at least 30 minutes of moderate physical activity; and 3) at least 60 minutes of aerobic (moderate and vigorous) physical activity. On the 2011 and 2013 national YRBS questionnaire, only the 60 minutes of aerobic physical activity question was included. § Leading Health Indicator. |
