2012 Arizona Youth Survey
The Arizona Criminal Justice Commission s Statistical Analysis Center thanks
Bach Harrison, L.L.C. for their professionalism and contributions during the
administration of the 2012 Arizona Youth Survey. In addition we thank the
Arizona Department of Gaming, Office of Problem Gambling for their
continued financial support of the Arizona Youth Survey. We also benefited
from the expertise, guidance, and assistance provided by our colleagues at
the Arizona Criminal Justice Commission and from input received from
many individuals working for agencies throughout the state including:
Additionally, the success of the 2012 Arizona Youth Survey could not have
been achieved without the support and participation of school
superintendents, principals, prevention coordinators, and teachers throughout
the state. Finally, we extend our thanks to the students who responded to the
survey. Their thoughtful participation resulted in a wealth of information
that can be used to improve the circumstances in which they live and learn.

and recruitment efforts were successful in
obtaining participation by schools in all of
Arizona's 15 counties. Careful planning and
uniform administration of the survey have
resulted in survey data that are valid and
representative of the students in 8th, 10th, and
12th grades in Arizona.
Table 1 contains the characteristics of the
students who completed the survey from your
county and the state of Arizona. Because not
every student answered all of the questions,
the number of students in the gender and
ethnicity/race categories often will be less than
the total number of students.
To better understand the diversity of
Arizona s youth population, respondents were
asked separate questions about their ethnicity
(Hispanic vs. Non-Hispanic) and their race
(Caucasian, African-American, Native American,
etc.). This method for obtaining ethnicity and
race information provides more comprehensive
data on youth cultural and racial self-
identification, and a more nuanced understanding
of Arizona s diverse youth population.
Whenever data are obtained from a sample of
students instead of the entire population, it is
important to recognize the strengths and
weaknesses of the data. One easy way to
investigate the quality of the sample is to look
at the basic demographic characteristics of the
students who participated in the survey and
compare them to what is known about the
entire population of students. This will give the
user of these data a basic understanding of the
degree to which the sample data can be
generalized to the entire population.
It is important to note that even when the
characteristics of the sample do not match well
to the characteristics of the population this does
not mean the data lose their usefulness. The data
included in this report describes the level of risk
and protective factors, substance use, antisocial
behavior, and delinquency of those youth who
participated in the survey, which can be used to
inform the development of school and
community-based prevention and intervention
activities that may benefit both the youth who
participate in the survey and those who did not.
2012 Arizona Youth Survey
Apache County Summary Report
This report summarizes findings from the 2012 Arizona Youth
Survey (AYS) administered to 8th, 10th, and 12th grade students
during spring 2012. The results for your county are presented
along with comparisons to the results for the state of Arizona. The
survey was designed to assess school safety, adolescent substance
use, antisocial behavior and the risk and protective factors that
predict these adolescent problem behaviors.
All schools in Arizona are eligible to participate in the survey,

Protective factors exert a positive influence and
buffer against the negative influence of risk, thus
reducing the likelihood that adolescents will engage in
problem behaviors. Protective factors identified
through research include strong bonding to family,
school, community and peers, and healthy beliefs and
clear standards for behavior.
Research on risk and protective factors also has
important implications for children s academic
success, positive youth development, and prevention
of health and behavior problems. In order to promote
academic success and positive youth development
and to prevent problem behaviors, it is necessary to
address the factors that predict these outcomes. By
measuring risk and protective factors in a population,
specific risk factors that are elevated and widespread
can be identified and targeted by policies, programs,
and actions shown to reduce those risk factors and to
promote protective factors.
Many risk and protective factors can be linked to
specific types of interventions that have been shown to
be effective in either reducing risk(s) or enhancing
protection(s). The steps outlined here will help your
county make key decisions regarding allocation of
resources, how and when to address specific needs,
and which strategies are most effective and known to
produce results.
Prevention is a science. The Risk and Protective
Factor Model of Prevention is a proven way of
reducing substance abuse and its related
consequences. This model is based on the simple
premise that to prevent a problem from happening,
we need to identify the factors that increase the risk
of that problem developing and then find ways to
reduce the risks. Just as medical researchers have
found risk factors for heart disease such as diets high
in fat, lack of exercise, and smoking, a team of
researchers at the University of Washington have
defined a set of risk factors for youth problem
behaviors.
Risk factors are characteristics of school, community
and family environments, and of students and their
peer groups known to predict increased likelihood of
drug use, delinquency, school dropout, and violent
behaviors among youth. For example, children who
live in families with high levels of conflict are more
likely to become involved in delinquency and drug use
than children who live in families characterized by low
levels of family conflict.
The chart below shows the links between 19 risk
factors and five problem behaviors. The check marks
indicate where at least two well designed, published
research studies have shown a link between the risk
factor and the problem behavior.

There are seven types of charts presented in this report:
1. Lifetime and 30-day ATOD use
2. Binge drinking and antisocial behavior
3. Gambling
4. Risk profiles
5. Protective profiles
6. Where youth acquired alcohol, marijuana, and
prescription drugs
7. School safety and cyber-bullying
Data from the charts are also presented in Tables 4
through 14 that appear at the end of this report. The
additional data found in Tables 15 through 17 are
explained at the end of this section.
Understanding the Format of the Charts
There are several graphical elements common to all
the charts. Understanding the format of the charts and
what these elements represent is essential in
interpreting the results of the 2012 AYS.
The Bars on substance use and antisocial behavior
charts represent the percentage of students who
reported a given behavior. For the risk and protective
charts, research has determined cutoff scores for each
scale where the likelihood of youth problem
behaviors were increased (youth at risk) or reduced
(youth having protection). The bars on the risk and
protective factor charts represent the percentage of
students scoring above the cutoff, reflecting elevated
risk or protection in that category. zzz zzz zzzzzzzzz z
Each set of differently colored bars represents one of
the last three administrations of the AYS: 2008, 2010,
and 2012. By looking at the percentages over time, it
is possible to identify trends in substance use and
antisocial behavior. By studying the percentage of
youth at risk and with protection over time, it is
possible to determine whether the percentage of
students at risk or with protection is increasing,
decreasing, or staying the same. This information is
important when deciding which risk and protective
factors warrant attention.
Dots and Diamonds. The dots on the charts
represent the percentage of all of the youth surveyed
across Arizona who reported substance use, problem
behavior, elevated risk, or elevated protection. The
diamonds represent national data from either the
Monitoring the Future (MTF) Survey or the Bach
Harrison Norm. zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
The Bach Harrison Norm was developed by Bach
Harrison L.L.C. to provide states and communities
Charts and Tables in this Report
with the ability to compare their results on risk,
protection, and antisocial measures with more
national measures. Survey participants from eight
statewide surveys and five large regional surveys
across the nation were combined into a database of
approximately 460,000 students. The results were
weighted to make the contribution of each state and
region proportional to its share of the national
population. Bach Harrison analysts then calculated
rates for antisocial behavior and for students at risk and
with protection. The results appear on the charts as BH
Norm. In order to keep the Bach Harrison Norm
relevant, it is updated approximately every two
years as new data become available. zzzzz zzzzzzzzz
A comparison to state-wide and national results
provides additional information for your community
in determining the relative importance of levels of
alcohol, tobacco and other drug (ATOD) use,
antisocial behavior, risk, and protection. Information
about other students in the state and the nation can
be helpful in determining the seriousness of a given
level of problem behavior. Scanning across the charts,
it is important to observe the factors that differ the
most from the Bach Harrison Norm. This is the first
step in identifying the levels of risk and protection
that are higher or lower than those in other
communities. The risk factors that are higher than the
Bach Harrison Norm and the protective factors that
are lower than the Bach Harrison Norm are probably
the factors that your community should consider
addressing when planning prevention programs.
Lifetime and 30-Day ATOD Use
Lifetime use is a measure of the percentage of
students who tried the particular substance at least
once in their lifetime and is used to show the
percentage of students who have had experience
with a particular substance.
30-day use is a measure of the percentage of students
who used the substance at least once in the 30 days
prior to taking the survey and is a more sensitive
indicator of the level of current use of the substance.
Binge Drinking and Antisocial Behavior
Binge Drinking is measured as having five or more
drinks in a row during the two weeks prior to the
survey.
Drinking and Driving is measured by youth
drinking alcohol and driving, or riding with a driver
who had been drinking alcohol in the past 30 days.
7
Antisocial behavior (ASB) is a measure of the
percentage of students who report any involvement
during the past year with the eight antisocial
behaviors listed in the charts.
Gambling
Gambling behavior charts show the percentage of
students who engaged in each of the 10 types of
gambling for money, possessions, or anything of value
during the past year: played gambling machines,
played the lottery, bet on sports, played cards, bought
a raffle ticket, played bingo, gambled on the Internet,
bet on a dice game, bet on a game of personal skill and
bet on horse or other animal races. The chart also
shows the percentage of students who engaged in any
gambling behavior during the past year.
Risk and Protective Factor Profiles
Risk and protective factor scales measure specific
aspects of a youth s life experience that can be used to
predict whether he/she will engage in problem
behaviors. The scales, defined in Table 3, are grouped
into four domains: community, family, school, and
peer/individual. The risk and protective factor charts
show the percentage of students at risk and with
protection for each of the scales.
Where Youth Obtained Alcohol, Marijuana
and Prescription Drugs
These charts display data regarding the ways that
students obtained alcohol, marijuana and prescription
drugs in the past 30 days. Each chart focuses on a
subgroup of students who indicated at least one means
of obtaining alcohol, marijuana, or prescription drugs.
(Students reporting no use of the relevant substance
are not represented in these data.) The smaller the size
of the subgroup (known as the sample size), the more
dramatic the influence of a student's responses (e.g., if
only one student in a particular grade reported where
he/she obtained alcohol, each category would show up
as either 0% or 100%). The chart legends indicate the
sample size for each grade surveyed to help clarify the
value of the data.
School Safety and Cyber-Bullying
The school safety and cyber-bullying profile charts
contain the percentages of students who felt unsafe at
school or on the way to school, were threatened or
injured with a weapon at school, were in a physical
fight at school, carried a weapon to school, were
picked on or bullied at school, or were harassed or
mistreated while on-line or using an electronic device.
The complete questions and values for each response
option can be seen in Table 14.
Additional Data in this Report
In addition to data presented in the charts and Tables 4
through 14, Tables 15 through 17 contain information
useful for prevention planning and grant monitoring.
Table 15 contains the information that is required by
communities with Drug Free Communities Grants,
such as the perception of the risk of ATOD use,
perception of parent and peer disapproval of ATOD
use, past 30-day use, and average age of first use.

Supported by a grant from the Arizona Governor's Office
for Children, Youth and Families, the Community
Data Project is a multi-agency effort to create a central
repository for Arizona's substance abuse and crime
data. Through a user-friendly web site, individuals
have access to a one-stop portal where they can select
the type of data they need, specific demographic
characteristics, and their geographic level of interest.
Various output options are offered, including data
tables, graphs, and maps to cover a variety of reporting
and visualization needs. The web site is a useful tool
for practitioners and policymakers who are addressing
substance abuse, juvenile delinquency, and crime and
the criminal justice system by providing them with a
picture of the characteristics and needs of Arizona s
communities. Having data that are specific to the
user s geographic area of interest not only leads to an
enhanced understanding of the community issues
related to drugs and crime, but also maximizes data-
for-decision-making capabilities for things such as the
appropriate program content, identification of at-risk
target areas and populations, grant writing and reporting,
monitoring progress of prevention and intervention
initiatives over time, and determining resource
allocation. Please visit the Community Data Project at:

The Arizona Substance Abuse Partnership
The Arizona Substance Abuse Partnership (ASAP) was established by Executive Order 2007-12 in June 2007.
Currently chaired by the Director of the Governor s Office for Children, Youth and Families, who also acts as the
Governor s Policy Advisor for Human Services, the ASAP serves as the single statewide council on substance abuse
treatment, prevention, intervention/enforcement, and recovery issues. The ASAP brings together stakeholders at
the federal, state, tribal, and local levels to improve coordination of efforts; and address identified gaps in
prevention, treatment, enforcement, and recovery efforts. The ASAP utilizes data and practical expertise to develop
effective methods for integrating and expanding services across Arizona, thereby maximizing available resources.
It is ASAP s mission to ensure community-driven, agency-supported outcomes to prevent and reduce the negative
impacts of alcohol, tobacco, and other drugs by building and sustaining partnerships between professionals in the
substance abuse field. Through coordination and collaboration among its members and their respective agencies
and organizations, the ASAP strives to ensure that substance abuse is addressed in a comprehensive manner and
that funding is spent efficaciously and efficiently.
Recognizing that prescription drug abuse is a serious threat to the health and well-being of families and
communities in Arizona, the ASAP is devoted to reducing prescription drug abuse.
There are currently two work groups that assist the ASAP in meeting its goals:
Substance Abuse Epidemiology Work Group (Epi Work Group) The Substance Abuse Epidemiology
Work Group s mission is to provide communities, policymakers and local, state and tribal officials with data
on the use, consequences and context of alcohol and illicit, over-the-counter, and prescription drugs to
inform their substance abuse prevention and intervention strategies. The Epi Work Group produces The
Impact of Substance Abuse: A Snapshot of Arizona and behavioral health epidemiology profiles for use by
community coalitions, agencies, and individuals in relevant fields. Additionally, the Epi Work Group
conducts analyses of individual substance abuse issues, responds to ad hoc data requests and brings data to
bear on ASAP s policy decisions around its strategic plan and focus areas. Further, the Epi Work Group
assists the ASAP to develop effective methods for integrating and expanding services across Arizona while
maximizing available resources and supporting a data-driven decision-making process.
Communities Preventing Substance Abuse Work Group (CPSAWG) The Communities Preventing
Substance Abuse Work Group is a merging of two former subcommittees of the ASAP, the Underage
Drinking Prevention Committee and the Community Advisory Board. This group brings together
representatives from community coalitions around the state and state agency representatives to provide an
essential link between community and state-level efforts. The CPSAWG brings the community voice to the
ASAP table; reports on important community issues that inform ASAP s work; helps communities improve
their capacity to identify emerging trends, as well as take action and report on them to the proper
institutions/authorities; takes the data available through the Epi Work Group and the ASAP back to
coalitions and communities to effectively target prevention, treatment, recovery, and enforcement activities;
serves as a resource for communities and the state to identify the most effective ways to reduce substance
abuse through collaborative efforts and by targeting limited resources where they are most needed; and
elevates and recognizes the important work being carried out at the community level to ensure that state-
level responses are cognizant of the impact of policies on individual communities. This work group assesses
statewide epidemiological data, resources, strategies and policies, and builds relationships with tribes, youth,
law enforcement, government agencies, and community coalitions. By combining resources, practice, and
research, the work group collaborates to reduce substance abuse.

What are the numbers telling you?
Review the charts and data tables presented in this report. Note your findings as you discuss the following questions.
Which 3-5 risk factors appear to be higher than you would want when compared to the state/Bach Harrison Norm?
Which 3-5 protective factors appear to be lower than you would want when compared to the state/Bach Harrison Norm?
Which levels of 30-day drug use are increasing and/or unacceptably high?
o Which substances are your students using the most?
o At which grades do you see unacceptable usage levels?
Which levels of antisocial behaviors are increasing and/or unacceptably high?
o Which behaviors are your students exhibiting the most?
o At which grades do you see unacceptable behavior levels?
How to identify high priority problem areas.
Look across the charts which items stand out as either much higher or much lower than the others?
Compare your data with statewide, and/or national data differences of 5% between local and other data are
probably significant.
Prioritize problems for your area Make an assessment of the rates you ve identified. Which problem(s) can be
realistically addressed with the funding available to your community? Which problem(s) fit best with the
prevention resources at hand?
Determine the standards and values held within your community For example: Is it acceptable in your
community for a percentage of high school students to drink alcohol regularly as long as that percentage is lower
than the overall state rate?
Use these data for planning.
Substance use and antisocial behavior data raise awareness about the problems and promote dialogue.
Risk and protective factor data identify exactly where the community needs to take action.
Promising approaches access resources listed on the last page of this report for ideas about programs that
have been proven effective in addressing the risk factors that are high in your community, and improving the
protective factors that are low.

1 Low Neighborhood Attachment Research has shown that youth who don't like the neighborhoods in which they live are more likely to become
involved in juvenile crime and drug selling.
1
1 Laws and Norms Favorable
Toward Drug Use
Research has shown that legal restrictions on alcohol and tobacco use, such as raising the legal drinking age, restricting
smoking in public places, and increased taxation have been followed by decreases in consumption. Moreover, national
surveys of high school seniors have shown that shifts in normative attitudes toward drug use have preceded changes in
prevalence of use.
1
1 Perceived Availability of Drugs
and Handguns
The availability of cigarettes, alcohol, marijuana, and other illegal drugs has been related to the use of these substances
by adolescents. The availability of handguns is also related to a higher risk of crime and substance use by adolescents.
1 Rewards for Prosocial
Involvement
Rewards for positive participation in activities helps youth bond to the community, thus lowering their risk for
substance use.
1 Poor Family Management Parents use of inconsistent and/or unusually harsh or severe punishment with their children places themat higher risk
for substance use and other problem behaviors. Also, parents failure to provide clear expectations and to monitor their
children s behavior makes it more likely that they will engage in drug abuse whether or not there are family drug
problems.
1 Family Conflict Children raised in families high in conflict, whether or not the child is directly involved in the conflict, appear at risk
for both delinquency and drug use.
1 Family History of Antisocial
Behavior
When children are raised in a family with a history of problembehaviors (e.g., violence or ATOD use), the children are
more likely to engage in these behaviors.
1 Parental Attitudes Favorable
Toward Antisocial Behavior &
Drugs
In families where parents use illegal drugs, are heavy users of alcohol, or are tolerant of children s use, children are
more likely to become drug abusers during adolescence. The risk is further increased if parents involve children in
their own drug (or alcohol) using behavior, for example, asking the child to light the parent s cigarette or get the parent
a beer from the refrigerator.
1 Family Attachment Young people who feel that they are a valued part of their family are less likely to engage in substance use and other
problem behaviors.
1 Opportunities for Prosocial
Involvement
Young people who are exposed to more opportunities to participate meaningfully in the responsibilities and activities
of the family are less likely to engage in drug use and other problem behaviors.
1 Rewards for Prosocial
Involvement
When parents, siblings, and other family members praise, encourage, and attend to things done well by their child,
children are less likely to engage in substance use and problem behaviors.
1 Academic Failure Beginning in the late elementary grades (grades 4-6) academic failure increases the risk of both drug abuse and
delinquency. It appears that the experience of failure itself, for whatever reasons, increases the risk of problem
behaviors.
1 Low Commitment to School Surveys of high school seniors have shown that the use of drugs is significantly lower among students who expect to
attend college than among those who do not. Factors such as liking school, spending time on homework, and
perceiving the coursework as relevant are also negatively related to drug use.

Risk and Protective Scale Definitions
1 Opportunities for Prosocial
Involvement
When young people are given more opportunities to participate meaningfully in important activities at school, they are
less likely to engage in drug use and other problem behaviors.
1 Rewards for Prosocial
Involvement
When young people are recognized and rewarded for their contributions at school, they are less likely to be involved in
substance use and other problem behaviors.
1
1 Rebelliousness Young people who do not feel part of society, are not bound by rules, don t believe in trying to be successful or
responsible, or who take an active rebellious stance toward society, are at higher risk of abusing drugs. In addition,
high tolerance for deviance, a strong need for independence and normlessness have all been linked with drug use.
1
1 Early Initiation of Antisocial
Behavior and Drug Use
Early onset of drug use predicts misuse of drugs. The earlier the onset of any drug use, the greater the involvement in
other drug use and the greater frequency of use. Onset of drug use prior to the age of 15 is a consistent predictor of
drug abuse, and a later age of onset of drug use has been shown to predict lower drug involvement and a greater
probability of discontinuation of use.
1 Attitudes Favorable Toward
Antisocial Behavior and Drug Use
During the elementary school years, most children express anti-drug, anti-crime, and pro-social attitudes and have
difficulty imagining why people use drugs or engage in antisocial behaviors. However, in middle school, as more youth
are exposed to others who use drugs and engage in antisocial behavior, their attitudes often shift toward greater
acceptance of these behaviors. Youth who express positive attitudes toward drug use and antisocial behavior are more
likely to engage in a variety of problem behaviors, including drug use.
1 Perceived Risk of Drug Use Young people who do not perceive drug use to be risky are far more likely to engage in drug use.
1 Interaction with Antisocial Peers Young people who associate with peers who engage in problem behaviors are at higher risk for engaging in antisocial
behavior themselves.
1 Friends' Use of Drugs Young people who associate with peers who engage in alcohol or substance abuse are much more likely to engage in
the same behavior. Peer drug use has consistently been found to be among the strongest predictors of substance use
among youth. Even when young people come from well-managed families and do not experience other risk factors,
spending time with friends who use drugs greatly increases the risk of that problem developing.
1 Rewards for Antisocial Behavior Young people who receive rewards for their antisocial behavior are at higher risk for engaging further in antisocial
behavior and substance use.
1
1 Gang Involvement Youth who belong to gangs are more at risk for antisocial behavior and drug use.
1 Belief in the Moral Order Young people who have a belief in what is right or wrong are less likely to use drugs.
1 Interaction with Prosocial Peers Young people who associate with peers who engage in prosocial behavior are more protected from engaging in
antisocial behavior and substance use.
1 Prosocial Involvement Participation in positive school and community activities helps provide protection for youth.
1 Rewards for Prosocial
Involvement
Young people who are rewarded for working hard in school and the community are less likely to engage in problem
behavior.

The male and female values allow a gender comparison for youth who completed the survey. However, unless the percentage of students who participated from each grade is similar, the gender results are not necessarily representative of males and females in the community.
State and national data for All Students Surveyed are drawn from grades 8, 10 and 12. Depending on which grades were surveyed in a particular report, (e.g., 8 and 10 only), caution should be exercised when comparing rates.
For Average Age of Onset, the Sample column represents the overall sample size: the total number of people that responded to the questions about Age of Onset. This includes responses that are not used to calculate the average age of onset (i.e., youth that have never used alcohol,
tobacco, and marijuana). The "Percent" column represents the percentage of youth in the sample reporting any age of first use for the specified substance. "Average age" is calculated by averaging the ages of first use of students reporting any use.
For Past 30-Day Use, Perception of Risk, and Perception of Parental/Peer Disapproval, the Sample column represents the sample size - the number of people who answered the question and whose responses were used to determine the percentage. The "Percent" column represents
the percentage of youth in the sample answering the question as specified in the definition.

We also benefited from the expertise, guidance, and assistance provided by our colleagues at the Arizona Criminal Justice Commission and from input received from many individuals working for agencies throughout the state including: Additionally, the success of the 2012 Arizona Youth Survey could not have been achieved without the support and participation of school superintendents, principals, prevention coordinators, and teachers throughout the state. Finally, we extend our thanks to the students who responded to the survey. Their thoughtful participation resulted in a wealth of information that can be used to improve the circumstances in which they live and learn.

Careful planning and uniform administration of the survey have resulted in survey data that are valid and representative of the students in 8th, 10th, and 12th grades in Arizona. Table 1 contains the characteristics of the students who completed the survey from your county and the state of Arizona. Because not every student answered all of the questions, the number of students in the gender and ethnicity/race categories often will be less than the total number of students. To better understand the diversity of Arizona s youth population, respondents were asked separate questions about their ethnicity (Hispanic vs. Non-Hispanic) and their race (Caucasian, African-American, Native American, etc.). This method for obtaining ethnicity and race information provides more comprehensive data on youth cultural and racial self- identification, and a more nuanced understanding of Arizona s diverse youth population. Whenever data are obtained from a sample of students instead of the entire population, it is important to recognize the strengths and weaknesses of the data. One easy way to investigate the quality of the sample is to look at the basic demographic characteristics of the students who participated in the survey and compare them to what is known about the entire population of students. This will give the user of these data a basic understanding of the degree to which the sample data can be generalized to the entire population. It is important to note that even when the characteristics of the sample do not match well to the characteristics of the population this does not mean the data lose their usefulness. The data included in this report describes the level of risk and protective factors, substance use, antisocial behavior, and delinquency of those youth who participated in the survey, which can be used to inform the development of school and community-based prevention and intervention activities that may benefit both the youth who participate in the survey and those who did not. 2012 Arizona Youth Survey Apache County Summary Report This report summarizes findings from the 2012 Arizona Youth Survey (AYS) administered to 8th, 10th, and 12th grade students during spring 2012. The results for your county are presented along with comparisons to the results for the state of Arizona. The survey was designed to assess school safety, adolescent substance use, antisocial behavior and the risk and protective factors that predict these adolescent problem behaviors. All schools in Arizona are eligible to participate in the survey, Introduction Table 1.

Protective factors identified through research include strong bonding to family, school, community and peers, and healthy beliefs and clear standards for behavior. Research on risk and protective factors also has important implications for children s academic success, positive youth development, and prevention of health and behavior problems. In order to promote academic success and positive youth development and to prevent problem behaviors, it is necessary to address the factors that predict these outcomes. By measuring risk and protective factors in a population, specific risk factors that are elevated and widespread can be identified and targeted by policies, programs, and actions shown to reduce those risk factors and to promote protective factors. Many risk and protective factors can be linked to specific types of interventions that have been shown to be effective in either reducing risk(s) or enhancing protection(s). The steps outlined here will help your county make key decisions regarding allocation of resources, how and when to address specific needs, and which strategies are most effective and known to produce results. Prevention is a science. The Risk and Protective Factor Model of Prevention is a proven way of reducing substance abuse and its related consequences. This model is based on the simple premise that to prevent a problem from happening, we need to identify the factors that increase the risk of that problem developing and then find ways to reduce the risks. Just as medical researchers have found risk factors for heart disease such as diets high in fat, lack of exercise, and smoking, a team of researchers at the University of Washington have defined a set of risk factors for youth problem behaviors. Risk factors are characteristics of school, community and family environments, and of students and their peer groups known to predict increased likelihood of drug use, delinquency, school dropout, and violent behaviors among youth. For example, children who live in families with high levels of conflict are more likely to become involved in delinquency and drug use than children who live in families characterized by low levels of family conflict. The chart below shows the links between 19 risk factors and five problem behaviors. The check marks indicate where at least two well designed, published research studies have shown a link between the risk factor and the problem behavior.

Lifetime and 30-day ATOD use 2. Binge drinking and antisocial behavior 3. Gambling 4. Risk profiles 5. Protective profiles 6. Where youth acquired alcohol, marijuana, and prescription drugs 7. School safety and cyber-bullying Data from the charts are also presented in Tables 4 through 14 that appear at the end of this report. The additional data found in Tables 15 through 17 are explained at the end of this section. Understanding the Format of the Charts There are several graphical elements common to all the charts. Understanding the format of the charts and what these elements represent is essential in interpreting the results of the 2012 AYS. The Bars on substance use and antisocial behavior charts represent the percentage of students who reported a given behavior. For the risk and protective charts, research has determined cutoff scores for each scale where the likelihood of youth problem behaviors were increased (youth at risk) or reduced (youth having protection). The bars on the risk and protective factor charts represent the percentage of students scoring above the cutoff, reflecting elevated risk or protection in that category. zzz zzz zzzzzzzzz z Each set of differently colored bars represents one of the last three administrations of the AYS: 2008, 2010, and 2012. By looking at the percentages over time, it is possible to identify trends in substance use and antisocial behavior. By studying the percentage of youth at risk and with protection over time, it is possible to determine whether the percentage of students at risk or with protection is increasing, decreasing, or staying the same. This information is important when deciding which risk and protective factors warrant attention. Dots and Diamonds. The dots on the charts represent the percentage of all of the youth surveyed across Arizona who reported substance use, problem behavior, elevated risk, or elevated protection. The diamonds represent national data from either the Monitoring the Future (MTF) Survey or the Bach Harrison Norm. zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz The Bach Harrison Norm was developed by Bach Harrison L.L.C. to provide states and communities Charts and Tables in this Report with the ability to compare their results on risk, protection, and antisocial measures with more national measures. Survey participants from eight statewide surveys and five large regional surveys across the nation were combined into a database of approximately 460,000 students. The results were weighted to make the contribution of each state and region proportional to its share of the national population. Bach Harrison analysts then calculated rates for antisocial behavior and for students at risk and with protection. The results appear on the charts as BH Norm. In order to keep the Bach Harrison Norm relevant, it is updated approximately every two years as new data become available. zzzzz zzzzzzzzz A comparison to state-wide and national results provides additional information for your community in determining the relative importance of levels of alcohol, tobacco and other drug (ATOD) use, antisocial behavior, risk, and protection. Information about other students in the state and the nation can be helpful in determining the seriousness of a given level of problem behavior. Scanning across the charts, it is important to observe the factors that differ the most from the Bach Harrison Norm. This is the first step in identifying the levels of risk and protection that are higher or lower than those in other communities. The risk factors that are higher than the Bach Harrison Norm and the protective factors that are lower than the Bach Harrison Norm are probably the factors that your community should consider addressing when planning prevention programs. Lifetime and 30-Day ATOD Use Lifetime use is a measure of the percentage of students who tried the particular substance at least once in their lifetime and is used to show the percentage of students who have had experience with a particular substance. 30-day use is a measure of the percentage of students who used the substance at least once in the 30 days prior to taking the survey and is a more sensitive indicator of the level of current use of the substance. Binge Drinking and Antisocial Behavior Binge Drinking is measured as having five or more drinks in a row during the two weeks prior to the survey. Drinking and Driving is measured by youth drinking alcohol and driving, or riding with a driver who had been drinking alcohol in the past 30 days. 7 Antisocial behavior (ASB) is a measure of the percentage of students who report any involvement during the past year with the eight antisocial behaviors listed in the charts. Gambling Gambling behavior charts show the percentage of students who engaged in each of the 10 types of gambling for money, possessions, or anything of value during the past year: played gambling machines, played the lottery, bet on sports, played cards, bought a raffle ticket, played bingo, gambled on the Internet, bet on a dice game, bet on a game of personal skill and bet on horse or other animal races. The chart also shows the percentage of students who engaged in any gambling behavior during the past year. Risk and Protective Factor Profiles Risk and protective factor scales measure specific aspects of a youth s life experience that can be used to predict whether he/she will engage in problem behaviors. The scales, defined in Table 3, are grouped into four domains: community, family, school, and peer/individual. The risk and protective factor charts show the percentage of students at risk and with protection for each of the scales. Where Youth Obtained Alcohol, Marijuana and Prescription Drugs These charts display data regarding the ways that students obtained alcohol, marijuana and prescription drugs in the past 30 days. Each chart focuses on a subgroup of students who indicated at least one means of obtaining alcohol, marijuana, or prescription drugs. (Students reporting no use of the relevant substance are not represented in these data.) The smaller the size of the subgroup (known as the sample size), the more dramatic the influence of a student's responses (e.g., if only one student in a particular grade reported where he/she obtained alcohol, each category would show up as either 0% or 100%). The chart legends indicate the sample size for each grade surveyed to help clarify the value of the data. School Safety and Cyber-Bullying The school safety and cyber-bullying profile charts contain the percentages of students who felt unsafe at school or on the way to school, were threatened or injured with a weapon at school, were in a physical fight at school, carried a weapon to school, were picked on or bullied at school, or were harassed or mistreated while on-line or using an electronic device. The complete questions and values for each response option can be seen in Table 14. Additional Data in this Report In addition to data presented in the charts and Tables 4 through 14, Tables 15 through 17 contain information useful for prevention planning and grant monitoring. Table 15 contains the information that is required by communities with Drug Free Communities Grants, such as the perception of the risk of ATOD use, perception of parent and peer disapproval of ATOD use, past 30-day use, and average age of first use. How Ctoh aRretsa da nthde T Cahbalersts i nin t hthisis R Reeppoortrt( c(coonnt td d)) Supported by a grant from the Arizona Governor's Office for Children, Youth and Families, the Community Data Project is a multi-agency effort to create a central repository for Arizona's substance abuse and crime data. Through a user-friendly web site, individuals have access to a one-stop portal where they can select the type of data they need, specific demographic characteristics, and their geographic level of interest. Various output options are offered, including data tables, graphs, and maps to cover a variety of reporting and visualization needs. The web site is a useful tool for practitioners and policymakers who are addressing substance abuse, juvenile delinquency, and crime and the criminal justice system by providing them with a picture of the characteristics and needs of Arizona s communities. Having data that are specific to the user s geographic area of interest not only leads to an enhanced understanding of the community issues related to drugs and crime, but also maximizes data- for-decision-making capabilities for things such as the appropriate program content, identification of at-risk target areas and populations, grant writing and reporting, monitoring progress of prevention and intervention initiatives over time, and determining resource allocation. Please visit the Community Data Project at: www.azcjc.gov/ACJC.Web/sac/CommunDataPrj.aspx The Community Data Project 8 The Arizona Substance Abuse Partnership The Arizona Substance Abuse Partnership (ASAP) was established by Executive Order 2007-12 in June 2007. Currently chaired by the Director of the Governor s Office for Children, Youth and Families, who also acts as the Governor s Policy Advisor for Human Services, the ASAP serves as the single statewide council on substance abuse treatment, prevention, intervention/enforcement, and recovery issues. The ASAP brings together stakeholders at the federal, state, tribal, and local levels to improve coordination of efforts; and address identified gaps in prevention, treatment, enforcement, and recovery efforts. The ASAP utilizes data and practical expertise to develop effective methods for integrating and expanding services across Arizona, thereby maximizing available resources. It is ASAP s mission to ensure community-driven, agency-supported outcomes to prevent and reduce the negative impacts of alcohol, tobacco, and other drugs by building and sustaining partnerships between professionals in the substance abuse field. Through coordination and collaboration among its members and their respective agencies and organizations, the ASAP strives to ensure that substance abuse is addressed in a comprehensive manner and that funding is spent efficaciously and efficiently. Recognizing that prescription drug abuse is a serious threat to the health and well-being of families and communities in Arizona, the ASAP is devoted to reducing prescription drug abuse. There are currently two work groups that assist the ASAP in meeting its goals: Substance Abuse Epidemiology Work Group (Epi Work Group) The Substance Abuse Epidemiology Work Group s mission is to provide communities, policymakers and local, state and tribal officials with data on the use, consequences and context of alcohol and illicit, over-the-counter, and prescription drugs to inform their substance abuse prevention and intervention strategies. The Epi Work Group produces The Impact of Substance Abuse: A Snapshot of Arizona and behavioral health epidemiology profiles for use by community coalitions, agencies, and individuals in relevant fields. Additionally, the Epi Work Group conducts analyses of individual substance abuse issues, responds to ad hoc data requests and brings data to bear on ASAP s policy decisions around its strategic plan and focus areas. Further, the Epi Work Group assists the ASAP to develop effective methods for integrating and expanding services across Arizona while maximizing available resources and supporting a data-driven decision-making process. Communities Preventing Substance Abuse Work Group (CPSAWG) The Communities Preventing Substance Abuse Work Group is a merging of two former subcommittees of the ASAP, the Underage Drinking Prevention Committee and the Community Advisory Board. This group brings together representatives from community coalitions around the state and state agency representatives to provide an essential link between community and state-level efforts. The CPSAWG brings the community voice to the ASAP table; reports on important community issues that inform ASAP s work; helps communities improve their capacity to identify emerging trends, as well as take action and report on them to the proper institutions/authorities; takes the data available through the Epi Work Group and the ASAP back to coalitions and communities to effectively target prevention, treatment, recovery, and enforcement activities; serves as a resource for communities and the state to identify the most effective ways to reduce substance abuse through collaborative efforts and by targeting limited resources where they are most needed; and elevates and recognizes the important work being carried out at the community level to ensure that state- level responses are cognizant of the impact of policies on individual communities. This work group assesses statewide epidemiological data, resources, strategies and policies, and builds relationships with tribes, youth, law enforcement, government agencies, and community coalitions. By combining resources, practice, and research, the work group collaborates to reduce substance abuse. 9 What are the numbers telling you? Review the charts and data tables presented in this report. Note your findings as you discuss the following questions. Which 3-5 risk factors appear to be higher than you would want when compared to the state/Bach Harrison Norm? Which 3-5 protective factors appear to be lower than you would want when compared to the state/Bach Harrison Norm? Which levels of 30-day drug use are increasing and/or unacceptably high? o Which substances are your students using the most? o At which grades do you see unacceptable usage levels? Which levels of antisocial behaviors are increasing and/or unacceptably high? o Which behaviors are your students exhibiting the most? o At which grades do you see unacceptable behavior levels? How to identify high priority problem areas. Look across the charts which items stand out as either much higher or much lower than the others? Compare your data with statewide, and/or national data differences of 5% between local and other data are probably significant. Prioritize problems for your area Make an assessment of the rates you ve identified. Which problem(s) can be realistically addressed with the funding available to your community? Which problem(s) fit best with the prevention resources at hand? Determine the standards and values held within your community For example: Is it acceptable in your community for a percentage of high school students to drink alcohol regularly as long as that percentage is lower than the overall state rate? Use these data for planning. Substance use and antisocial behavior data raise awareness about the problems and promote dialogue. Risk and protective factor data identify exactly where the community needs to take action. Promising approaches access resources listed on the last page of this report for ideas about programs that have been proven effective in addressing the risk factors that are high in your community, and improving the protective factors that are low.

Moreover, national surveys of high school seniors have shown that shifts in normative attitudes toward drug use have preceded changes in prevalence of use. 1 1 Perceived Availability of Drugs and Handguns The availability of cigarettes, alcohol, marijuana, and other illegal drugs has been related to the use of these substances by adolescents. The availability of handguns is also related to a higher risk of crime and substance use by adolescents. 1 Rewards for Prosocial Involvement Rewards for positive participation in activities helps youth bond to the community, thus lowering their risk for substance use. 1 Poor Family Management Parents use of inconsistent and/or unusually harsh or severe punishment with their children places themat higher risk for substance use and other problem behaviors. Also, parents failure to provide clear expectations and to monitor their children s behavior makes it more likely that they will engage in drug abuse whether or not there are family drug problems. 1 Family Conflict Children raised in families high in conflict, whether or not the child is directly involved in the conflict, appear at risk for both delinquency and drug use. 1 Family History of Antisocial Behavior When children are raised in a family with a history of problembehaviors (e.g., violence or ATOD use), the children are more likely to engage in these behaviors. 1 Parental Attitudes Favorable Toward Antisocial Behavior & Drugs In families where parents use illegal drugs, are heavy users of alcohol, or are tolerant of children s use, children are more likely to become drug abusers during adolescence. The risk is further increased if parents involve children in their own drug (or alcohol) using behavior, for example, asking the child to light the parent s cigarette or get the parent a beer from the refrigerator. 1 Family Attachment Young people who feel that they are a valued part of their family are less likely to engage in substance use and other problem behaviors. 1 Opportunities for Prosocial Involvement Young people who are exposed to more opportunities to participate meaningfully in the responsibilities and activities of the family are less likely to engage in drug use and other problem behaviors. 1 Rewards for Prosocial Involvement When parents, siblings, and other family members praise, encourage, and attend to things done well by their child, children are less likely to engage in substance use and problem behaviors. 1 Academic Failure Beginning in the late elementary grades (grades 4-6) academic failure increases the risk of both drug abuse and delinquency. It appears that the experience of failure itself, for whatever reasons, increases the risk of problem behaviors. 1 Low Commitment to School Surveys of high school seniors have shown that the use of drugs is significantly lower among students who expect to attend college than among those who do not. Factors such as liking school, spending time on homework, and perceiving the coursework as relevant are also negatively related to drug use. Table 3. Scales that Measure the Risk and Protective Factors Shown in the Profiles Community Domain Risk Factors Community Domain Protective Factors Family Domain Risk Factors Family Domain Protective Factors School Domain Risk Factors Risk and Protective Scale Definitions 43 Risk and Protective Scale Definitions 1 Opportunities for Prosocial Involvement When young people are given more opportunities to participate meaningfully in important activities at school, they are less likely to engage in drug use and other problem behaviors. 1 Rewards for Prosocial Involvement When young people are recognized and rewarded for their contributions at school, they are less likely to be involved in substance use and other problem behaviors. 1 1 Rebelliousness Young people who do not feel part of society, are not bound by rules, don t believe in trying to be successful or responsible, or who take an active rebellious stance toward society, are at higher risk of abusing drugs. In addition, high tolerance for deviance, a strong need for independence and normlessness have all been linked with drug use. 1 1 Early Initiation of Antisocial Behavior and Drug Use Early onset of drug use predicts misuse of drugs. The earlier the onset of any drug use, the greater the involvement in other drug use and the greater frequency of use. Onset of drug use prior to the age of 15 is a consistent predictor of drug abuse, and a later age of onset of drug use has been shown to predict lower drug involvement and a greater probability of discontinuation of use. 1 Attitudes Favorable Toward Antisocial Behavior and Drug Use During the elementary school years, most children express anti-drug, anti-crime, and pro-social attitudes and have difficulty imagining why people use drugs or engage in antisocial behaviors. However, in middle school, as more youth are exposed to others who use drugs and engage in antisocial behavior, their attitudes often shift toward greater acceptance of these behaviors. Youth who express positive attitudes toward drug use and antisocial behavior are more likely to engage in a variety of problem behaviors, including drug use. 1 Perceived Risk of Drug Use Young people who do not perceive drug use to be risky are far more likely to engage in drug use. 1 Interaction with Antisocial Peers Young people who associate with peers who engage in problem behaviors are at higher risk for engaging in antisocial behavior themselves. 1 Friends' Use of Drugs Young people who associate with peers who engage in alcohol or substance abuse are much more likely to engage in the same behavior. Peer drug use has consistently been found to be among the strongest predictors of substance use among youth. Even when young people come from well-managed families and do not experience other risk factors, spending time with friends who use drugs greatly increases the risk of that problem developing. 1 Rewards for Antisocial Behavior Young people who receive rewards for their antisocial behavior are at higher risk for engaging further in antisocial behavior and substance use. 1 1 Gang Involvement Youth who belong to gangs are more at risk for antisocial behavior and drug use. 1 Belief in the Moral Order Young people who have a belief in what is right or wrong are less likely to use drugs. 1 Interaction with Prosocial Peers Young people who associate with peers who engage in prosocial behavior are more protected from engaging in antisocial behavior and substance use. 1 Prosocial Involvement Participation in positive school and community activities helps provide protection for youth. 1 Rewards for Prosocial Involvement Young people who are rewarded for working hard in school and the community are less likely to engage in problem behavior.

However, unless the percentage of students who participated from each grade is similar, the gender results are not necessarily representative of males and females in the community. State and national data for All Students Surveyed are drawn from grades 8, 10 and 12. Depending on which grades were surveyed in a particular report, (e.g., 8 and 10 only), caution should be exercised when comparing rates. For Average Age of Onset, the Sample column represents the overall sample size: the total number of people that responded to the questions about Age of Onset. This includes responses that are not used to calculate the average age of onset (i.e., youth that have never used alcohol, tobacco, and marijuana). The "Percent" column represents the percentage of youth in the sample reporting any age of first use for the specified substance. "Average age" is calculated by averaging the ages of first use of students reporting any use. For Past 30-Day Use, Perception of Risk, and Perception of Parental/Peer Disapproval, the Sample column represents the sample size - the number of people who answered the question and whose responses were used to determine the percentage. The "Percent" column represents the percentage of youth in the sample answering the question as specified in the definition. 54 Data Tables Table 16.
