Strengthening School Connectedness to Increase Student Success
Category: Student Well-Being
Instrument Overview
The Attitudes and Behaviors Survey gives a snapshot of the current experiences and perspectives of youth in schools, programs, or communities. It emphasizes the strengths and supports they currently have and need, and how those positive indicators protect against risk behaviors. This widely used survey grew out of more than 30 years of research on the framework of Developmental Assets. It is used by schools, organizations, coalitions, and programs seeking to understand young people’s lives through their strengths, supports, and resources.
