Abstract

This state survey randomly selected 2,037 ninth- and twelfth-grade students to determine the onset and prevalence of health risk behaviors. A higher pattern of risk-taking behavior was found among younger in comparison with older students. Gender differences were also noted. Implications for school health intervention are discussed.
