Reliability of the 2021 National Youth Risk Behavior Survey Questionnaire.
Purpose: The Youth Risk Behavior Survey (YRBS) monitors behaviors, experiences, and conditions affecting the health of high school students nationwide. This study examined the test-retest reliability of the 2021 national YRBS questionnaire.
Design: Respondents completed a Time 1 and Time 2 paper-and-pencil questionnaire approximately 2 weeks apart during February to May 2022. Data were linked in such a way as to preserve anonymity.
Setting: Convenience sample of high schools.
Subjects: High school students (N = 588).
Measures: Health risk behaviors and experiences assessed on the 2021 national YRBS questionnaire.
Analysis: Time 1 and Time 2 responses were compared for each questionnaire item using the McNemar's test. Then, Cohen's kappa coefficients tested the agreement between Time 1 and Time 2 responses overall, and by sex, grade, and Black, White, and Hispanic race and ethnicity.
Results: Among the 74 items analyzed, 96% had at least moderate reliability, and 73% had substantial or almost perfect reliability. The mean Cohen's kappa was .68. McNemar's test findings showed Time 1 and Time 2 data significantly differed (P < .01) for 9 items (12%).
Conclusion: Reliable health behavior measures are important in the development of youth-focused public health programs and policies. Findings suggest the national YRBS questionnaire is a reliable instrument. Such findings lend support to relying on adolescent self-reported data when monitoring health behaviors using the YRBS.
