Behavior in school patterns of youths 12-17 years, United States
Abstract:
Basic data on ratings by teachers and other school officials on behavior patterns in school of youths 12 through 17 years of age in the noninstitutional population of the United States are presented in this report by age and sex. Observations of teachers obtained in the Health Examination Survey of 1966-70 should provide some insight into the behavior of adolescents that is related to their growth and development and to their ability to function in an important life situation. A similar report on children 6-11 years of age in the U.S. population has been published. The Health Examination Survey is one of three major programs of the National Center for Health Statistics that conducts the National Health Survey as authorized in 1956 by the 84th Congress. The Health Interview Survey, which obtains information by household interview among samples of persons, is concerned primarily with the impact of illness and disability on the lives and actions of people. The Division of Health Resources Statistics collects health data as well as health resource and utilization information through surveys of hospitals, nursing homes, other resident institutions, and various persons in health occupations.
