In September and October of 2008, the Iowa Department of Public Health (IDPH) collaborated with schools in Iowa to conduct the 2008 Iowa Youth Survey (IYS). The 2008 IYS is the twelfth in a series of surveys that have been completed every three years since 1975. The survey is conducted with students in grades 6, 8, and 11 attending Iowa public and private schools. The IYS includes questions about students’ behaviors, attitudes, and beliefs, as well as their perceptions of peer, family, school, neighborhood, and community environments.

2002 Iowa Youth Survey State of Iowa Results, April 2003

The 2002 Iowa Youth Survey (IYS) State of Iowa report was designed to help state-level planners identify youth development-related needs, develop relevant programs, and assess the outcomes of those programs. These data can help us better understand our youth and their needs. They can help us assess the strengths and weaknesses of our schools, families and communities from the young person’s perspective. In addition, the data in this report help the state obtain funds for a wide variety of programs. At every step in the process – from needs identification, to program development and implementation, to program assessment – the 2002 IYS data will provide a valuable resource. The state report can also help Iowa’s schools, area education agencies and counties assess their relative strengths and weaknesses. The grades 6, 8, and 11, as well as male and female percentages reported in each of these reports can be compared with the respective state report percentages. The higher the proportion of students in each of these columns that completed a usable IYS questionnaire, the more likely the comparisons with the state report percentages will be unbiased. Such comparisons should be considered exploratory, but for the most part are likely to prove useful.

2005 Iowa Youth Survey State of Iowa Results, Revised December 2006

They can also help you assess the strengths and weaknesses of our schools, families, and communities from the young person’s perspective. In addition, the data in this report help the state obtain funds for a wide variety of programs. At every step of the process–from needs identification, to program development and implementation, to program assessment–the 2005 IYS data will prove to be a valuable resource. The state report can also help Iowa’s schools, area education agencies, and counties assess their relative strengths and weaknesses. The grades 6, 8, and 11, as well as male and female percentages reported in district-level, AEA-level, county-level, and other 2005 IYS reports can be compared with the respective state report percentages. The higher the proportion of students in each of these columns that completed usable IYS questionnaires, the more likely the comparisons with the state report percentages will be unbiased.
