Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to assess the reliability of the middle school version of the 2005 Youth Risk Behavior Survey (MSYRBS) questionnaire by having 232 students complete it twice over two weeks.
- The results indicated a mean kappa statistic of 62.6%, suggesting good reliability overall, though some items showed significant variability, with nine items falling below the acceptable threshold.
- The researchers concluded that while the MSYRBS appears reliable, further investigation into specific items is needed, along with the inclusion of more diverse participants in future studies.
