Background : The ever-increasing prevalence of school dropout (SD) highlights the need to gain insight into risk factors for dropout causes and consequences. The aim of this study was to evaluate the gender differences for health indicators in a sample of school dropout adolescents. Methods : Data were collected regarding 450 adolescent's SD (19 ± 2 years; 308 males), and health-related quality-of-life (HRQoL) and risk behaviors were assessed by means of a standardized questionnaire. Results: The results revealed that the female population was characterized by a compromised health indicator profile in terms of both risk behaviors and HRQoL dimensions. Conclusion: These findings indicate that SD is a multidimensional phenomenon, for which the implementation of multiple educational, social, and psychological policies aimed at mitigating the issue are recommended
