The
2003 Wisconsin Youth Risk Behavior Survey (YRBS) is conducted
as part of a national effort by the U.S. Centers for Disease Control
and Prevention to monitor health-risk behaviors of the nation's
high school students. This report contains findings from the 2003
Wisconsin YRBS in eight priority areas: protective assets; traffic
safety; weapons and violence; suicide; tobacco use; alcohol and
other drug use; sexual behavior; and diet, nutrition and exercise.
...
The survey results are representative of ninth through twelfth
grade public high school students in Wisconsin. In this report,
the 2003 Wisconsin data are compared to the 1993, 1997, 1999,
and 2001 Wisconsin data and the 2001 National YRBS data to indicate
trends and comparisons. [description taken from the YRBS Executive
