Abstract:

The Florida Youth Survey project is a composite of three school-based surveys administered using paper-based instruments annually since 2002. ICF recently conducted a web-based pilot of the 2017 Florida Youth Substance Abuse Survey with high and middle school students in 10 counties. The goal of the study was to determine the impact of the administering the survey via a web-based system and to examine the impact of a series of methodological tests, including the use of skip logic and changes to the standard response options. Our findings on student's responses and teacher impressions as well as challenges and recommendations for internet administration are presented.
