2 2015 Charlotte Mecklenburg Youth Risk Behavior Survey Introduction The Youth Risk Behavior Survey (YRBS), produced by the Centers for Disease Control and conducted every two years, assesses health risk behaviors that contribute to some of the leading causes of morbidity and mortality in youth. The survey measures behaviors such as: unintentional injuries and violence; tobacco, alcohol and other drug use; sexual behaviors that result in HIV infection, other sexually transmitted diseases and unintended pregnancies; nutrition; and physical activity. The YRBS also measures self-reported height and weight to allow calculation of body mass index. New Questions for 2015 Several new questions were added to the local CMS survey in New questions that were asked included: Electronic vapor products (e-cigarettes, e-cigars, e-pipes, vape pipes, vaping pens, e-hookahs & hookah pens) Trouble Walk or ride bike to school Observed students being bullied Physical activity during class The complete list of questions can be found on page 11 of this report. i
3 Demographic Profiles The first YRBS was administered in 2005 and included 18 high schools in the county. While participation varies from year to year, the survey has expanded. The 2015 Charlotte- Mecklenburg YRBS was administered in 29 schools to 2,078 high school students.

7 Bullying on School Property In 2009 the Centers for Disease Control modified questions on bullying. Current questions exclude the term harassment while adding a definition for bullying. Due to these changes in survey questions, caution should be used in comparing 2007 data with other years of information. Figure 1. Bullying and Harassment The percentage of teens who reported being bullied on school property decreased from 20% in 2007 to 17% in Approximately 11% of students reported being electronically bulled. Despite declines in reports of bulling on school property, 50% of teens agree or strongly agree that harassment and bullying by other teens is a problem at their school. Over 12% of teens reported being bullied because someone thought they were gay, lesbian or bisexual.

8 Unintentional Injury and Violence In 2013 dating and intimate partner violence questions were modified to include persons teens were dating or going out with on one or more times during the past 12 months.
