Summary of 2011 Lebanon Global School-based Student Health Survey (GSHS)

Methods

The survey used a school-based design targeting students in grades 7th, 8th, and 9th (aged 13-15 years). A two-stage cluster sample design was employed with probability proportional to enrollment size at the first stage for schools, and random selection of classes at the second stage. Response rates included an 88% school response rate and 99% student response rate, leading to 2286 participants. Students self-reported responses on computer-scannable answer sheets. Comparison was limited to students aged 13-15 years.

Key Findings

The survey examined various health behaviors and risk factors, including alcohol use, dietary habits, drug use, hygiene practices, mental health, physical activity, protective factors, violence, and unintentional injuries. For students aged 13-15 years, results revealed:

High rates of alcohol consumption (28.5% overall), with boys reporting the highest usage and girls the lowest.
Significant issues with dietary behaviors, including overweight (24.1-34.0%), obesity (6.7-9.1%), and high carbonated soft drink consumption (60.2-65.0%).
Drug use was low, but age of first use before age 14 was reported (among ever users).
Poor hygiene practices were common, with low rates of tooth cleaning (9.8-12.9%) and handwashing (2.4-3.2%).
Mental health concerns included high percentages of students considering suicide (15.0-17.3%) and attempting suicide (13.5%), with boys more likely to report isolation.
Physical activity was low, with few meeting guidelines (34.6%), but sports classes were attended frequently (33.1-36.1%).
Protective factors showed mixed results, with some students missing classes without permission and varying parental support.
High incidences of violence were observed: physical fights (48.5-69.3%) and injuries (39.0-43.8%), with bullying reported by some (25.1-35.0%, boys higher).
