Longitudinal Surveys of Australian Youth, 2009 cohort (Version 9.0)

In 2009 a nationally representative sample of about 14,000 15-year-old students was selected to participate in the OECD's Programme for International Student Assessment (PISA). This group of young people became the fifth cohort of the LSAY program (LSAY Y09). As part of PISA, assessments in mathematical literacy, reading literacy and scientific literacy were administered in schools to provide information on student achievement. Students also completed a background questionnaire about themselves, their families, their reading activities, their English lessons, libraries, strategies in reading and understanding texts, familiarity with computers, educational and vocational plans, attitudes to school and learning, work experience, workplace learning, and part-time work. In 2010, members of the Y09 cohort were contacted for the first of their annual LSAY telephone interviews. The questionnaire for their 2010 interview included questions on school, transitions from school, post-school education and training, work, job history, job search activities, health, living arrangements, finance and general attitudes. Subsequent surveys asked similar questions, but with the emphasis changing from school to post-school education, training and work, depending on the young person's circumstances. Since 2012, respondents were given the option to complete their interviews online.

2009年，一个代表全国约14,000名15岁学生的样本被选入参与经济合作与发展组织（OECD）的国际学生评估项目（PISA）。这群青年构成了LSAY项目（LSAY Y09）的第五批参与者。作为PISA的一部分，学校对学生进行了数学素养、阅读素养和科学素养的评估，以提供学生学业成就的相关信息。学生还完成了一份关于自身、家庭、阅读活动、英语课程、图书馆、阅读和理解文本的策略、对计算机的熟悉程度、教育及职业规划、对学校及学习的态度、工作经验、职场学习以及兼职工作的背景问卷。2010年，Y09批次的成员首次被邀请进行年度LSAY电话访谈。2010年访谈的问卷包含有关学校、学校过渡、毕业后教育及培训、工作、工作历史、求职活动、健康状况、居住安排、财务状况以及总体态度等问题。随后的调查询问了类似的问题，但重点从学校转向毕业后教育、培训和工作，这取决于年轻人的生活状况。自2012年起，受访者可以选择在线完成他们的访谈。
