Abstract:

 

In 2018 a survey has been conducted throughout all Italian Regions on students (11, 13 and 15 year-old) in the framework of the international Health Behaviour in School-aged Children study. Target classes have been the first and third grade of middle school and the second grade of high school. To all subjects attending the sampled classes a questionnaire has been administered to collect information on their health behavior (dietary habits, physical activity, risk behavior, well-being), their relationship with the school, parents and peers as well as general information concerning their health and social background. In total, 4,183 classes and 58,976 adolescents were involved.
