1. States and districts listed above had weighted
data for both the 2007 YRBS and 2006 Profiles. This means that for YRBS, the
site achieved at least a 60% overall response rate. For Profiles, the site
achieved at least a 70% school response rate. With weighted data, it is
possible to say, for example, "X% of high school students in our state
smoked cigarettes during the past month and X% of middle schools and high schools in our state
taught tobacco use prevention education."
