NRS-3825 | Questionnaires of a survey on drug use by secondary school students in New South Wales

These are the records of a survey conducted by the NSW Drug and Alcohol Authority in October 1983 relating to drug abuse by school students in New South Wales. The records comprise completed and sample questionnaires. All questionnaires are anonymous. A sample of 4,165 students was drawn from Year 7 to 11 in twenty-nine schools throughout the State. A two stage cluster sampling method was used, and the methodology for this is explained in both the interim (12/10754.3) and the main report (12/10754.4). The drugs examined in this survey were alcohol, tobacco, analgesics, solvents and aerosols, marijuana, sedatives, hallucinogens, narcotics and stimulants. Because of the large number of drugs covered in the survey, two forms of questionnaire were developed. The first half of each questionnaire consists of a set of "core" questions common to both forms. These questions concern the level of drug use within these time scales. The other sections of the questionnaire relate to detailed questions about alcohol use, or questions about smoking. In addition, there is a sample questionnaire for students in Years 5 and 6. (12/10727-10754.2). 28 boxes (part).

本数据集为新南威尔士州药物与酒精管理局（NSW Drug and Alcohol Authority）于1983年10月开展的一项针对新南威尔士州在校学生药物滥用情况的调查记录。数据集包含已完成问卷与抽样问卷，所有问卷均采用匿名形式。研究人员从全州29所学校的7至11年级学生中抽取了4165名样本，采用两阶段整群抽样法，该方法的具体流程已在中期报告（12/10754.3）与主报告（12/10754.4）中均有说明。本次调查涵盖的药物包括酒精、烟草、镇痛剂、溶剂与气雾剂、大麻、镇静剂、致幻剂、麻醉剂与兴奋剂。由于本次调查覆盖药物种类较多，研究人员设计了两种问卷形式：每份问卷的前半部分为两类问卷通用的"核心"问题集，用于了解上述药物在不同时间尺度下的使用情况；问卷其余部分则分别针对酒精使用或吸烟行为设置详细问题。此外，另有针对5至6年级学生的抽样问卷（编号12/10727-10754.2）。本次说明归档于28个（部分）档案盒中。注：本说明经修订后摘录自2000年第三版《新南威尔士州档案馆简明指南》（Concise Guide to the State Archives of New South Wales）。
