1 INTRODUCTION

This report was generated from data collected on the 2008 Arkansas PreventionNeeds Assessment Student Survey. This report contains basic frequency tablesof all data collected and graphs on the selected demographic variables of grade,gender, age and ethnic origin. The graph on ethnic origin is represented as a barchart rather than as a pie chart. This is because students were allowed to markmore than one response for ethnic origin as opposed to being allowed to markonly one response. The bars represent the percent of students who marked eachof the ethnic categories.

Questions regarding the information found in this report can be directed to:

2 PERCENTAGE TABLES

The following tables contain frequency distribution detailing how your studentsresponded to each question on the survey. The tables appear in the same orderas the questions on the survey. The tables include breakdowns by grade levelas well as overall percentages. The N of Valid row is a frequency count of thenumber of valid responses to each question for each grade and overall. The N ofMiss row is a frequency count of the number of invalid(marked more than oneresponse) or missing (i.e. did not respond) responses to each question for eachgrade and overall.

For the questions that allowed more than one response (i.e. race, live with, etc.)each response becomes a separate table. If a student did not mark the response,that was counted as a NO response, and if they did mark the response, that wascounted as a YES response. Since a non response is a valid response for thesequestions, the N of Miss will always be zero for these questions.
