Technical note: NOTE: The 2021 YRBS data was collected fall semester rather than spring semester, so the students were younger on average. Age can influence the risk behavior prevalence estimates. When comparing 2023 data to 2021 data, please refer to the UNR trend reports which weight the data by age for all years compared. The 2023 Nevada YRBS data were weighted based on the sex, race/ethnicity, and grade level of students in each region. The weighting process ensured that the estimates accurately represent the entire student population in each region and the state as a whole.
