Student Surveys, 2002-2003

This dataset represents a group of paper records (a \"series\") within the Harvard School of Public Health Harvard Prevention Research Center records, 1992-2003 (inclusive), 1994-2003 (bulk), which can be accessed on-site at the Center for the History of Medicine at the Francis A. Countway Library of Medicine in Boston, Massachusetts. The series consists of raw data surveys completed by middle and high school students in Boston, Massachusetts, during the Harvard Prevention Research Center's Play Across Boston study. Surveys concern youth physical activity and participation in community physical fitness programs. The bulk of the surveys were administered during the 2002-2003 school year. An earlier version of the survey (omitting a question regarding neighborhood of residence) was administered at two schools during the 2001-2002 school year. The series also includes student lists and parental consent forms for student participation. Survey topics include: students' demographics; height and weight; health or physical conditions that hinder physical activity; neighborhood of residence; weekly time spent engaged in physical activity; participation in sports teams, lessons, camps, or other organized physical activities; issues that hinder participation in physical activity; types of locations and facilities visited to engage in physical activity; availability of physical activities near home; proximity of home to physical fitness locations and facilities; proximity of home to retail locations selling healthy or unhealthy foods; methods of transportation to and from school; participation in physical education classes; students' self-assessed sports ability; television viewing habits; parents' education and exercise habits; whether a doctor or nurse discussed health, nutrition, and exercise habits at a recent physical examination; and the likelihood of changing health habits as a result of nutrition and exercise advice from a doctor or nurse. Attached to the “Student Surveys, 2002-2003” dataset are electronic dataset files created from the original paper surveys using Survey Monkey. Because the complete dataset includes identifying information for subjects, only summary data is provided. To illustrate potential analysis that can be conducted using the complete dataset, a filtered summary dataset is also provided comparing responses for subjects from three geographically diverse neighborhoods with high response rates (Roxbury, Allston-Brighton, and Charlestown). The summary dataset and the comparison summary dataset are both provided in three filetype choices: Microsoft Excel (XLS), portable document format (PDF), and Microsoft Powerpoint (PPT). In addition to these files, a methodology is also included explaining the process used by the archivist to convert the paper surveys into a digital dataset. Additional data and associated records are accessible onsite at the Center for the History of Medicine per the conditions governing access described below. Conditions Governing Access to the Complete Electronic Dataset: Researchers may apply for access to the complete dataset. Please contact the Center for History of Medicine's Public Services for more information. Conditions Governing Access to Original Collection Materials: The series represented by this dataset includes health information that is restricted for 80 years from the date of record creation. Researchers should contact Public Services for more information. The Harvard School of Public Health Harvard Prevention Research Center records were processed with grant funding from the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation, as awarded and administered by the Council on Library and Information Resources (CLIR) in 2016.

本数据集为哈佛大学公共卫生学院（Harvard School of Public Health）哈佛预防研究中心（Harvard Prevention Research Center）1992年至2003年（含首尾年份）档案中的一组论文记录（即“系列档案”），其中主体档案形成于1994年至2003年。该档案可在马萨诸塞州波士顿市弗朗西斯·A·卡姆韦医学图书馆医学史中心（Center for the History of Medicine at the Francis A. Countway Library of Medicine）进行线下查阅。

该系列档案由哈佛预防研究中心“波士顿跨校体育”（Play Across Boston）研究中，马萨诸塞州波士顿市初高中学生填写的原始数据调查问卷组成，调查内容围绕青少年体育活动及社区健身项目参与情况展开。主体问卷于2002-2003学年发放；2001-2002学年曾在两所学校发放过问卷的早期版本（缺少居住街区相关问题）。本系列档案还包含学生名单及学生参与所需的家长知情同意书。

调查问卷涵盖以下内容：学生人口统计学信息、身高与体重数据、阻碍体育活动的健康或身体状况、居住街区、每周体育活动时长、参与运动队、课程、营地或其他有组织体育活动的情况、阻碍体育活动参与的因素、开展体育活动的场所与设施类型、住宅附近体育活动资源的可及性、住宅与健身场所及设施的距离、住宅与售卖健康或非健康食品的零售场所的距离、上下学交通方式、体育课参与情况、学生自评运动能力、电视观看习惯、父母的受教育程度与运动习惯、近期体检时医生或护士是否讨论过健康、营养与运动习惯、是否会因医生或护士的营养与运动建议改变健康习惯。

“2002-2003年学生调查问卷”数据集附带通过Survey Monkey将原始纸质问卷转化而来的电子数据集文件。由于完整数据集包含研究对象的身份识别信息，仅提供汇总数据。为展示基于完整数据集可开展的潜在分析，本数据集还提供了经过筛选的汇总数据集，对比了三个地理分布各异且回复率较高的街区（罗克斯伯里、奥尔斯顿-布莱顿及查尔斯敦）的研究对象问卷回复情况。

汇总数据集与对比汇总数据集均提供三种文件格式选项：Microsoft Excel（XLS）、可移植文档格式（PDF）及Microsoft PowerPoint（PPT）。

除上述文件外，本数据集还包含档案管理员将纸质问卷转化为数字数据集的方法说明。根据下文所述的使用规则，更多数据及相关档案可在医学史中心线下查阅。
