2011 Edition

Department of Health of the autonomous government of Andalusia asked for a particular research which could obtain representative data from the adolescents of the Andalusian region. Therefore, data was collected specifically for Andalusia in the spring of 2011. Furthermore, an important advantage of this edition is the incorporation of the variable province to the sampling, since it made it possible to get representative information about the adolescents for each of the eight provinces of the region.

The sample selection procedure (random multi-stage sampling by conglomerates) allows the generalization of the results through all over Andalusia. Likewise, the results are representative for age levels (11-12, 13-14, 15-16 and 17-18), provinces and educational center types (public or private).In this edition, data was collected from 15,684 boys and girls between the ages of 11 and 18 in a total of 253 educational centers. Results can be found in the reports below.

As well as the 2010 edition of the Spanish HBSC Study, the 2011 edition of the HBSC Study in Andalusia did incorporate Information and Communications Technologies (ICTs) to the data collecting procedure. Hence, the participation of the educational centers was facilitated, and the anonymity of students and confidentiality of data was improved.

Finally, thanks to a subsidy in the framework of the Excellence Projects Programmes awarded by theDepartment of Economy, Innovation and Science of the autonomous government of Andalusia, this initiative will have continuity in the future.
