  • UnstableUse caution in interpreting, the estimate has a relative standard error greater than 0.30 and may not be reliable.
  • Very UnstableThe estimate has a relative standard error greater than 0.50 and is considered very unstable. It does not meet standards for reliability and should not be used to inform decisions. You should combine years or otherwise increase your population size.
  • StableA count or rate is considered "Stable" when a minimum of 30 students answered the question and the relative standard error is less than 0.30.

Data Notes

  • Question Wording:

    Based on the question "What is your race?" See HHDW Race Ethnicity documentation (or data release notes) for more details.
  • Suppression of Estimates

    According to CDC guidelines, a minimum of 30 students must answer a question in order for it to be reported. Where the number of students is below 30, not reportable, will appear in the table.
  • Weighted Survey Data

    The percentages reported above have been produced by weighting the sample so that the results better represent the population of Hawaiʻi.

Data Issues

  • Asymmetric Confidence Intervals

    The confidence bounds are asymmetric. They do not extend evenly above and below the percentage, especially as the percentage gets close to 0% or 100%.
  • Average Annual Population Estimate

    The denominator includes all survey respondents except those with missing, don't know, and refused answers. If the query was limited to a particular sub-population-group, only those respondents are included in the denominator.
  • Survey Sample

    YRBS uses a two-stage, stratified random sampling method to identify the sample. The sampling frame includes all students currently enrolled in grades 6-12 in a public school in the state of Hawaiʻi. Two samples are taken: one for middle school (grades 6-8) and one for high school (grades 9-12). Results are weighted by sex, grade, and race/ethnicity to ensure accurate representation of the population.
  • Hawai'i Youth Risk Behavior Survey

    The percentages reported above have been produced by weighting the sample so that the results better represent the Hawai'i population.

    Numerator and denominator data have been rounded to the nearest 100. In cases where the numerator is 49 or less, it is displayed as 50.

    Statistical Stability--Relative standard error, or RSE, is the standard error expressed as a proportion of the point estimate.

    "Stable" is displayed when the RSE is below 0.30.

    "Unstable" is displayed when the RSE is 0.30-0.50. An unstable count or rate may fluctuate widely across time periods due to random variation (chance).

    "Very unstable" is displayed when the RSE is greater than 0.50. A very unstable count or rate should not be used to inform decision making.

    Problems with statistical instability typically occur when there is a small number of health events in a small population. You may combine years or otherwise increase the population size used in the query to achieve a more stable count or rate.

    Due to space constraints imposed by the physical survey instrument, Chinese race/ethnicity information is not collected in the YRBS.
