UNDERSTANDING THE DATA	
	
Reporting Thresholds and Student Confidentiality	
	
Detailed reports have been run on the following levels for individual geographic units receiving weighted data, as survey design, response rates, and confidentiality protections allow:	
·       Grade 5-6: State and Public Health District (PHD)	
·       Middle School: State, PHD, and County	
·       High School: State, PHD, and County	

To protect student confidentiality, responses based on fewer than 6 individuals will not be shown.	
	
How to Read this Report	
	
For the Grade 5-6 detailed reports, all questions included on the 2023 MIYHS survey instrument are presented in the State and PHD detailed reports. For middle school (MS) and high school (HS), all questions that appeared on one or more of the four versions of the 2023 MIYHS survey instruments are presented in the State detailed reports, and questions on two or more versions of the MIYHS survey instruments are presented in the PHD and county detailed reports.	
	
Each estimate is the weighted percentage of students who answered in the way specified in the question title; for instance, in 2023, 20.5% of Maine's high school students said they had consumed alcohol at least once in the 30 days prior to taking the MIYHS. The percentages are weighted to adjust for non-response and to make the estimates more representative of all Maine students, not just those who took the survey.	
	
Because the weighted percentage is an estimate, there is some error involved. This is reflected in the Confidence Interval, which is bounded by the Lower Confidence Limit (LCL) and the Upper Confidence Limit (UCL). Confidence intervals quantify the degree of uncertainty in rate or prevalence estimates that result from sampling or random variability. Like the margin of error presented in political polls, the confidence interval presents a range of values within which the true underlying rate or prevalence is likely to lie. The 95% confidence interval is most commonly used and is presented in this report.	
	
Percentages with very wide 95% confidence intervals (spanning more than 20 percentage points) have been flagged because they should be interpreted with caution. The true percentage may be as high or low as the 95% confidence limits.	
	
Comparing Data: Is a Difference Statistically Significant?	
	
Statistically significant differences are differences between values that are more than what would have been expected by chance.  Statistical significance is determined by comparing confidence intervals. If the confidence interval around one percentage does not overlap with the confidence interval around another percentage, then the estimates are considered significantly different.
