Abstract

Background: Risk taking behaviors have several negative consequences. This study aimed to identify the subgroups of Students based on risk-taking behaviors and to assess the role of demographic characteristics, depression, anxiety, socioeconomic status (SES), physical inactivity and screen time on membership of specific subgroup. Study design: Cross-sectional study. Methods: This nationwide survey was conducted in 2011-2012 among 14880 Students, aged 6-18 yr, selected by multistage, cluster-sampling method from 30 provinces of Iran. The Students completed two sets of anonymous and validated questionnaires, obtained from the World Health Organization-Global School Health Survey questionnaires. Latent class analysis was performed to achieve the study objectives. Results: Overall, 13486 Children and adolescents participated were enrolled (response rate 90. 6%). They consisted of 50. 8% boys, with a mean age of 12. 47 ± 3. 36 year. The prevalence of physical fight, bullying, victimization, active smoking, passive hookah and passive cigarette smoking was 39. 7%, 17. 4%, 27. 2%, 5. 9%, 21. 1 and 33. 8%, respectively. Five latent classes were identified: (a) low risk (46. 7%), (b) passive smoker (25. 2%), (c violence and aggression taker with passive smoking (13. 5%), (d) violence and aggression taker without passive smoking (10. 8%) and (e) high risk (3. 8%). Higher age (OR=1. 41), being male (OR=5. 21), depression (OR=4. 58), anxiety (OR=3. 38) and screen time (OR=3. 11) were associated with high-risk class. Conclusion: The prevalence of some risk-taking behaviors among Iranian Students is high. Our findings emphasize the importance of planning and evaluating preventive interventions by considering different high-Risk behaviors simultaneously.
