Healthy Behaviour In School-aged Children (HBSC) Study
The Health Behaviour of School-aged Children (HBSC) study provides key insights into the health-related behaviours of young people. Its unique methodology has facilitated engagement with hundreds of thousands of young people in many parts of the world since its inception in 1983, building a data base over time that describes patterns and issues relevant to their health and well-being.
HBSC focuses on a wide range of health, education, social and family measures that affect young people’s health and well-being. This fifth international report from HBSC focuses on social determinants of health and provides a full description of the health and well-being of young people growing up in different countries across Europe and North America through data collected from the 2009/2010 survey.
