About

This indicator is the percentage of students in grades 6 to 12 who have their need for relatedness highly satisfied.

Source

New Brunswick Health Council, Student Wellness and Education Survey, Grades 6-12

Calculations

This indicator is calculated by dividing the number of respondents who have a total relatedness score higher than a specified cutoff by the number of respondents who described their feelings and ideas for at least 3 of the following 6 questionnaire items: my teachers like me and care about me, I like to spend time with my parents, my parents like me and care about me, I like to be with my teachers, my friends like me and care about me and I like to spend time with my friends. The response options for these 6 items are: really false for me, sort of false for me, sort of true for me and really true for me.
