Multitiered interventions considering cultural relevance are recommended to improve LTPA engagement
Results From the 1995 National College Health Risk Behavior Survey
Results from the 1995 National College Health Risk Behavior Survey, which monitored health risk behaviors among US college and university undergraduates, suggest that many students' behaviors increase their likelihood of adverse health outcomes. During the 30 days preceding the survey, 34% of the participants had consumed five or more alcoholic drinks on at least one occasion, and 27% had drunk alcohol and driven a car. Thirty-one percent had smo…
Building the capacity of schools to improve the health of the nation
During the past several years, about two dozen major reports have called for the nation to reconceive and regenerate its school health programs. Proposals to reform health, education, and social services have included means to improve such programs. This article (a) identifies the leading causes of mortality and morbidity in the United States, (b) delineates 6 categories of behavior established during youth that contribute to these causes, (c) ou…
Meta‐Analysis of Interventions to Prevent Mental Health Problems Among Youth
Changes in HIV-related information sources, instruction, knowledge, and behaviors among US high school students, 1989 and 1990
OBJECTIVES. Few data have been available among adolescents to determine behavioral changes that may prevent human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection. This analysis examines changes in the prevalence of self-reported HIV-related information sources, instruction, knowledge, and behaviors among high school students in the United States. METHODS. Two independent, multistage national probability samples of students in grades 9 through 12 were surv…
Substance use and HIV-related sexual behaviors among US high school students
OBJECTIVES. This study was undertaken to examine whether use of alcohol, cigarettes, marijuana, cocaine, and other illicit drugs is related to the likelihood of sexual behaviors that increase risk for human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection among youth. METHODS. The 1990 national Youth Risk Behavior Survey was used to collect self-reported information about a broad range of health risk behaviors from a representative sample of 11,631 high sc…
HIV instruction, HIV knowledge, and drug injection among high school students in the United States

To determine the prevalence of HIV-related drug behaviors and to assess the effects of HIV-related school-based instruction and HIV knowledge on these behaviors, data were analyzed from a 39-item, self-administered questionnaire completed by a probability sample of all students in grad…
