About

This indicator is the percentage of students in grades 6 to 12 who usually sleep 8 hours or more when there is school the next morning. This indicator is based on the Canadian 24 Hour Movement Guidelines for Children and Youth.

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 slept 8 hours or more by the number of respondents who answered the questions about bedtime and waking time. This indicator is obtained after having calculated the total number of hours slept, by subtracting the bedtime from the waking time, as self-reported by the students to the following two questions: At what time do you usually go to sleep when you have school the next morning? And when do you usually wake up on school mornings?

Notes

This indicator has replaced SH_SLE01_1, which was previously available on our Web site, due to changes in our calculation methodology for the 2023-2024 edition of the questionnaire. Users are advised to exercise caution if comparing data from the community of Grand Bay-Westfield, Westfield, Greenwich Area to other New Brunswick communities. The data for the community of Grand Bay-Westfield, Westfield, Greenwich Area is based on students in grades 6 to 8, while data from the other communities are based on students in grades 6 to 12. Survey results are assigned to communities based on the location of the school. The community of Grand Bay-Westfield, Westfield, Greenwich Area does not have any schools with grades 9 to 12.
