SECTION C. SEXUAL VICTIMIZATION IN FACILITY

[INTRO for C1M and C1F]
The next questions are about sexual contact that occurs in this facility. By sexual contact, we mean
sexual intercourse, oral sex, anal sex or any other touching or rubbing of someone else’s private parts
in a sexual way. By private parts, we mean any part of the body that would be covered by a bathing
suit.
THROUGHOUT THE SURVEY THE RESPONDENT CAN CLICK ON “SEXUAL CONTACT” OR ON
“PRIVATE PARTS” TO RECEIVE THE FOLLOWING DEFINITIONS:
By sexual contact, we mean, sexual intercourse, oral sex, anal sex and any other touching or rubbing
of someone else’s private parts in a sexual way.
By private parts, we mean any part of the body that would be covered by a bathing suit.
Sexual contacts can happen to boys as well as girls. People who try to have sexual contact with young
people are not always strangers but can be someone they know well like a youth, a staff member,
teacher, counselor, or minister. People who try to have sexual contact with young people aren’t always
men or boys—they can also be women or girls. And sometimes people try to make young people have
sexual contact even if the young person doesn’t want to do it.
SCREENING BATTERY: ITEMS BY TYPE OF CONTACT – ASKED OF ALL RESPONDENTS
The next questions ask about sexual contact you may have had while you’ve been here. Please think
about any time when this might have happened with other youth or with facility staff here. Please
include any kind of sexual contact, whether you wanted to do it or not.

YOUNGER YOUTH INTRODUCTION
C1Y.

These next questions are about sexual contacts that happen in this facility.
Sexual contacts are when someone touches your private parts or you touch someone
else’s private parts in a sexual way. By private parts, we mean any part of the body that
would be covered by a bathing suit.
THROUGHOUT THE SURVEY THE RESPONDENT CAN CLICK ON “SEXUAL
CONTACTS” OR ON “PRIVATE PARTS” TO RECEIVE THE FOLLOWING
DEFINITIONS:
By sexual contacts, we mean when someone touches your private parts or you
touch someone else’s private parts in a sexual way.
By private parts, we mean any part of the body that would be covered by a bathing
suit.
Sexual contacts can happen to boys as well as girls. People who try to have sexual contact
with young people are not always strangers but can be someone they know well like a
youth, a staff member, teacher, counselor, or minister. People who try to have sexual
contact with young people aren’t always men or boys – they can also be women or girls.
And sometimes people try to make young people have sexual contact even if the young
person doesn’t want to do it.

DATE
Dear Parent or Guardian:
The U.S. Department of Justice is doing a special study called the National Survey of Youth
in Custody (NSYC) to learn more about what it is like for young people living in correctional
facilities. This study was done the last time in 2012, when nearly 10,000 young people took part.
Beginning in 2017, the NSYC will be done again and more than 19,000 youth will be asked
to take part in the study. FACILITY NAME is participating in NSYC this time and we would like
your permission to ask your child to be in the study.
I have enclosed a consent form that describes the study. Here are a few of the important
pieces of information explained on the consent form:
•

We are asking your permission to ask your child if he/she would like to do the interview. Your
child does not have to take part in the study, even if you give permission for us to ask him/her.

•

If you and your child agree, a researcher will show him/her how to answer questions using a
laptop computer.

•

Youth will be asked questions about what it is like living at the facility, including questions
about staff, other youth who live in the facility, and their physical and mental health. Some
youth will also be asked questions about alcohol and drug use, contact with others outside the
facility and their plans after they are released and some will be asked about sexual experiences
that might have happened, including those in this facility.

•

The computer will randomly decide which questions your child is asked; it has nothing to do
with your child’s background or history.

•

Your child’s name will not be put in the computer. No one will be able to connect your child’s
name to his/her answers in the computer. But it’s different if your child directly tells the
researcher about any abuse or harm to him/her or another child. If that happens, we have to
report it to the government agency that investigates these problems. If your child tells the
researcher s/he is in danger of hurting him/herself, the researcher will tell the facility.

We ask that you read the enclosed brochure and consent form. Please indicate on the form whether
or not you agree to let your child participate in the study, sign the form, and date it. Then return it
to FACILITY CONTACT in the enclosed pre-addressed stamped envelope.
If you have any questions about the objectives and goals of the study, please contact the facility or
the National Survey of Youth in Custody Information Line (1-XXX-XXX-XXX). If you have
questions about what your child’s rights would be as a participant, please contact the Westat Human
Subjects Protections Office at 1-888-920-7631; please leave a message with your full name, the name
of the study (National Survey of Youth in Custody) and a phone number beginning with the area
code.
Thank you for helping us with this important study.

FECHA
Estimado padre/madre o tutor/a,
El Departamento de Justicia de los Estados Unidos está llevando a cabo un estudio especial llamado
Estudio Nacional de Jóvenes Detenidos (National Survey of Youth in Custody - NSYC) para
conocer más cómo viven los jóvenes en un centro correccional. La última vez que se llevó a cabo
este estudio fue en 2012 y en él participaron casi 10,000 jóvenes.
En los primeros meses de 2017, se llevará a cabo el estudio NSYC otra vez y se le preguntará
a más de 19.000 jóvenes si desean participar en el estudio. En esta ocasión, NOMBRE DE LA
INSTITUCIÓN está participando en el NSYC y quisiéramos su permiso para preguntarle a su
hijo/a si desea participar en el estudio.
Anexa encontrará una planilla de consentimiento que explica de qué se trata el estudio. A
continuación se presentan algunas informaciones importantes que aparecen explicadas en la planilla
de consentimiento:
•

Estamos solicitando su permiso para preguntarle a su hijo/a si desea participar en el estudio.
Aunque usted haya dado su permiso para preguntarle, su hijo/a no está obligado/a a participar
en el estudio.

•

Si usted y su hijo/a están de acuerdo, un investigador le mostrará cómo contestar a las
preguntas utilizando un laptop.

•

Al/a la joven se le harán preguntas sobre cómo es vivir en esta institución, sobre el personal,
sobre los otros jóvenes que viven aquí y sobre su salud física y mental. A algunos jóvenes se
les harán preguntas acerca del alcohol y de las drogas que pudieran haber tomado, acerca del
contacto con otras personas fuera de la institución y qué planes tienen para después de su
liberación, y a otros se les harán preguntas acerca de las experiencias sexuales que pudieran
haber tenido, inclusive en esta institución.

•

El computador, al azar, decidirá qué preguntas se le harán a su hijo/a, sin que ello tenga nada
que ver con los antecedentes o el historial de su hijo/a.

•

En el computador no se pondrá el nombre de su hijo/a. Nadie podrá relacionar el nombre de
su hijo/a con las respuestas que ingrese en el computador. Pero será diferente si su hijo/a le
dice directamente al investigador que él mismo u otro/a muchacho/a ha sido objeto de algún
abuso o maltrato. Si ese fuera el caso, tendremos que reportarlo a la agencia gubernamental
que se encarga de investigar estos casos. Si su hijo/a le dice al investigador que él o ella está
en peligro de hacerse daño, el investigador tendrá que informarle a la institución.

Le pedimos que lea el folleto anexo y la planilla de consentimiento. Por favor, indique en la planilla

EXPIRATION DATE:

The U.S. Department of Justice is doing a special study called the National Survey of Youth in Custody to learn more
about what it is like for young people living in correctional facilities. The government will use the study to see if changes
need to be made at facilities. We will combine the answers that youth from each facility give into a report on the facility.
No names will appear in the report.
Young people in every state in the country will be asked to be part of this study, and we would like your permission to ask
your child to be in the study. If you (and your child) agree, he/she will spend about 35 minutes answering questions using
a computer. Youth will be asked questions about what it is like living at the facility, including questions about the staff,
other youth who live in the facility, and their physical and mental health. Some youth will also be asked questions about
alcohol and drug use, contact with others outside the facility and their plans after they are released and some will be asked
about sexual experiences that might have happened, including those in this facility.
The computer will randomly decide which questions your child is asked; it has nothing to do with your child’s background
or history. If your child agrees to be in the study, a researcher will show him/her how to use the computer. He/she will
see the questions on the screen and hear the questions through headphones. Your child will touch the screen to answer
the questions. No one will know which questions your child is asked or what he/she answers.
Your child does not have to do the survey. It is entirely up to you whether we can ask your child, and then it is up to your
child. Your choice will not affect your child’s case or the services that he/she gets in any way. If your child agrees to do
the survey, he/she can stop answering questions at any point. If there is a question that your child does not want to
answer, he/she can skip it.
We will do everything we can to protect your child’s privacy. We want you to understand a few things about the study:
•
•
•
•
•
•
•

The researcher who meets with your child will not ask for your child’s name, and your child will not be asked to
put his/her name in the computer.
Your child’s answers will be used only for statistical and research purposes and they will always be kept private.
All the answers that he/she puts in the computer will be confidential – that is, no one will know your child’s
answers.
All information sent over the internet to and from government computers is subject to screening for security
threats.
All of the researchers working on this study have signed documents saying that they will protect your child’s
privacy and not to tell anyone anything that he/she has said.
A law protects your child’s privacy. If someone violates this law, punishment may include fines up to $10,000.
But there is an important exception to the privacy rule. If your child tells the researcher about any abuse or
harm to him/her or another child, it will be reported to the government agency that investigates these kinds of
problems. If your child tells the researcher he/she is in danger of hurting him/herself, the researcher will tell the
facility.

Some of the questions on the computer might ask about private and sensitive things and may bother your child. If
thinking about the questions upsets or makes your child sad, he/she may talk to a counselor at the facility. If he/she
does not want to talk to a counselor who works there, arrangements can be made to talk with a counselor who does not
work at the facility [or for him/her to call the ChildHelp National Hotline (1-800-4-A-Child or 1-800-422-4453).]

El Departamento de Justicia de Estados Unidos está llevando a cabo un estudio especial llamado Estudio Nacional de
Jóvenes Detenidos (National Survey of Youth in Custody) con el fin de conocer más cómo viven los jóvenes en un centro
correccional. El gobierno utilizará este estudio para ver si es necesario hacer cambios en estas instituciones. Vamos a
combinar las respuestas dadas por los jóvenes de cada facilidad en un informe sobre la facilidad. En el informe no aparecerá
ningún nombre.
Se les pedirá a los jóvenes de todos los estados del país que participen en este estudio y quisiéramos su permiso para
preguntarle a su hijo/a si desea participar. Si usted (y su hijo/a) está(n) de acuerdo, su hijo /a necesitará unos 35 minutos
para responder a las preguntas en un computador. Al /a la joven se le harán preguntas sobre cómo vive en esta institución,
sobre el personal, sobre los otros jóvenes que viven en la institución y sobre su salud física y mental. A algunos jóvenes
también se les harán preguntas acerca del alcohol y de las drogas que pudieran haber tomado, acerca del contacto con otras

de las experiencias sexuales que pudieran haber tenido, inclusive en esta institución.
El computador, al azar, decidirá qué preguntas se le harán a su hijo/a, sin que tenga nada que ver con los antecedentes o
el historial de su hijo/a. Si su hijo/a acepta participar en el estudio, un investigador le mostrará cómo utilizar el computador.
Verá las preguntas escritas en la pantalla y las escuchará a través de los audífonos. Su hijo/a tocará la pantalla del
computador para responder a las preguntas. Nadie sabrá qué preguntas se le harán a su hijo/a ni tampoco lo que responda.
Su hijo/a no está obligado/a a participar en el estudio. Es su decisión permitirnos preguntarle a su hijo/a y, luego,
dependerá de él/ella. Su decisión no afectará de ninguna manera ni el caso de su hijo/a ni los servicios que recibe. Si su
hijo/a acepta participar, puede dejar de responder a las preguntas en cualquier momento. Si hay una pregunta que su hijo/a
no quiere contestar, puede pasarla.
Nosotros haremos todo lo posible para proteger la privacidad de su hijo/a. Queremos que entienda usted algunas cosas
acerca del estudio:
•
•
•
•
•
•
•

El investigador que se reunirá con su hijo/a no le preguntará su nombre y a su hijo/a no se le pedirá que ingrese
su nombre en el computador.
Las respuestas de su hijo/a se utilizarán únicamente con el propósito de estudios estadísticos y siempre se
mantendrán confidenciales.
Todas las respuestas que su hijo/a ingrese en el computador serán confidenciales, es decir, nadie conocerá las
respuestas que dé su hijo/a.
Todos los datos enviados por Internet desde y hacia computadores del gobierno están sujetos a revisiones para
la detección de amenazas de seguridad.
Todos los investigadores involucrados en este estudio han firmado documentos en los que declaran que
protegerán la privacidad de su hijo/a y que no le dirán a nadie lo que su hijo/a les haya dicho.
Hay una ley que protege la privacidad de su hijo. Si una persona infringe esta ley, el castigo puede incluir multas
de hasta 10,000 dólares.
Sin embargo, hay una excepción importante a esta regla de confidencialidad. Si su hijo/a le dice al investigador
que él/ella u otro niño/a ha sido objeto de abusos o maltratos, el hecho deberá ser reportado a la agencia
gubernamental encargada de investigar este tipo de problemas. Si su hijo/a le dice al investigador que él o ella
está en peligro de hacerse daño, el investigador tendrá que informarle a la institución.

National Survey
of Youth in
Custody (NSYC)
Sponsored by
Bureau of Justice Statistics
U.S. Department of Justice

The National Survey of Youth in Custody
(NSYC) is a study that will help describe
what it is like for young people living in
correctional facilities. The U.S. Department
of Justice did the last NSYC study in 2012,
and nearly 10,000 young people from 326
facilities across America took part. The
third NSYC study will begin in 2017, and
over 19,000 young people will be asked to
take part.
The study will ask young people to answer
questions about themselves, their feelings,
and their experiences. Their answers will
be combined to show what it is like to live
in juvenile facilities in America.
Your child may or may not be picked for
the study. Your child has a chance to be a
part of the study because he or she is now
staying in a facility that has agreed to
participate. It is important for the NSYC to
give a true picture of the experiences and
needs of all young people—male and
female, all different races and ethnic
groups, all ages, from all parts of the
country, and living in all
types of facilities. The
study will give the best
information if every
selected child completes
the survey.

The NSYC interview is done on a
computer. If you give your permission and
your child is selected, he or she will be
invited to spend about 35 minutes
completing the survey on a laptop
computer. Youth who agree to
take part will be seated in
front of the computer and will
put on a pair of headphones.
The computer will start by
explaining how to listen to the
survey questions and how to
choose answers. Youth will also be told
how to skip a question if he or she doesn’t
want to answer it.
The survey questions and possible answer
choices will appear on the computer
screen. At the same time, your child can
listen through the headphones to a
recorded voice reading what’s on the
screen. Your child will touch the computer
screen to select an answer for each
question, moving along at his or her own
pace.
The questions will ask about what it is
like living at the facility. This includes
questions about the staff, other youth who
live in the facility, and their physical and
mental health. Some youth will also be
asked questions about alcohol and drug
use, contact with others outside the

facility and their plans after release, and
some will be asked about sexual

NSYC-3 Parent Brochure

17

experiences that might have happened,
including those in the facility.
Your child’s answers will be private
and anonymous. His or her answers will
not be shared with anyone—not the
facility staff, not even you. The room will
be set up so that no one can see the
answers your child selects. The survey
team will not know any child’s name,
and we will combine the responses from
all the youth who take part. The study
reports will give only totals and
percentages, never any individual child’s
answers.
Your child’s answers will be
safeguarded by a Federal law that
protects the information from any use
other than for research. This protection
means that no one, not even a court of
law, can force the survey team to release
information
about your
child’s identity
to anyone. But
there is an
important
exception to
the privacy rule. If your child tells the
researcher about any abuse or harm to
himself or herself, or another child,
occurring in the facility,
it will be reported to the state or local

NSYC-3 Parent Brochure

government agency that investigates
these kinds of problems. If your child
tells the researcher he/she is in danger of
hurting him/herself, the researcher will
tell the facility.
The NSYC interview is voluntary. Even
if you allow your child to participate, he
or she will still have a choice. Before the
interview starts, a member of the survey
team will explain the survey. Youth who
don’t want to take part can quit before
the interview starts or at any time during
the interview. They can also skip any
questions that they don’t want to
answer. No matter what you or your
child decides about taking part in the
survey, there will be no consequences.
Your child will not get into any trouble if
he or she chooses to not participate or
quits early. Also, your child will not
receive anything for participating or get
any special services as a result.
Facilities are selected randomly for the
survey. There are more than 2,500
juvenile facilities in the country. About
450 of them will be randomly selected to
be in the survey. This means that the
facilities are selected by chance, similar
to conducting a lottery. Your child lives
in a facility that was selected. All youth
living in the smaller facilities are
automatically selected to be in the

18

survey. If your child’s facility is larger,
then the survey team will randomly
select youth for the study from the codename list of everyone living there.
The NSYC is sponsored by the Bureau of
Justice Statistics, an agency within the
U.S. Department of Justice.

The survey is being conducted by
Westat, an independent research
organization that is not affiliated with
any of the facilities in this study.

We are doing a special study for the U.S. Department of Justice to find out more about what it’s like
for young people living in places like this. The study is called the National Survey of Youth in
Custody.
The government will use the study to see if changes need to be made at places like this. We will
combine the answers that people give from this place into a report on this facility. No names will
appear in the report and it won’t say anything about who said what.
We’re asking people in every state in the country to be part of this study and we would like you to
participate. If you agree to be part of the study, you’ll answer some questions using this computer.
• Answering the questions takes about 35 minutes.
•

You will be asked questions about your background, what it is like living at this facility,
treatment by staff, other youth who live in the facility, and your physical and mental health.

• You might be asked questions about drug or alcohol use before you came to this facility,
contact with others outside the facility and your plans after you are released. Or you might
be asked about sexual experiences, including those that might have happened in this
facility.
• The computer will randomly decide which questions you are asked; it has nothing to do
with why you are at this place or what you might have told someone.
• Answering is easy. You’ll see the questions on the screen and hear the questions in the
headphones. You touch the computer screen to answer the questions.
• Nobody, not even me, will know which questions you get or what you answer.
• You don’t have to do this study. It’s entirely up to you. No matter what you decide, your
case will not be affected in anyway. You can start the interview and then decide to quit at
any time. Just tell me that you want to stop and I’ll tell you what to do. If you want to skip
a question, that’s ok too.
• A law protects your privacy. If someone violates this law, punishment may include fines
up to $10,000.
• All information sent over the internet to and from government computers is subject to
screening for security threats.

NSYC-3 Youth Assent/Consent Form (English)

• Your answers will be used only for statistical and research purposes and they will always be
kept private. I will not ask your name and you will not be asked to put your name in the
computer. No one on the project or on staff here will ever know your answers.
• There is an important exception to this privacy rule. If you tell me that you or anyone
else has been abused or harmed, I will report it to the government agency that investigates
these reports. If you tell me you are in danger of hurting yourself, I would be required to
tell someone here at the facility.
• So again, if you answer on the computer, even if it is about being abused or harmed,
no one will know your answer, not even me. But, if you tell me directly that you or
anyone else has been abused or harmed, I will report it to the government agency
that investigates these reports.
• If thinking about the questions upsets you or makes you sad, I can arrange for you to talk
with a counselor who works here. If you don’t want to talk to a counselor who works
here, I can arrange for you to talk with a counselor who does not work here [or someone
from the ChildHelp National Hotline (1-800-4-A-Child or 1-800-422-4453)]. Just let me
know.
If you have any questions, you can ask me anytime while I’m here. [After I leave,
• If you have any questions about your rights as a study participant, you can call Sharon Zack
at 1-800-937-8281, ext. 8828 and say that you are calling about the National Survey of
Youth in Custody. She works for the same company that I work for.
• If you have questions about how the study works, call the National Survey of Youth in Custody
Information Line at 1-XXX-XXX-XXXX]

[NOTE: Highlighted sections will be removed from assent form for youth in any facilities that will not allow access to a
telephone.]
So that’s it. I hope that you’ll be willing to take part in this important study. No matter what
experiences you have had, your answers will help us understand what it’s like for young people living
in places like this.

 Yes. By checking this box I am saying that I understand the statements above and that I agree to take
part in this study.
 No.

By checking this box I am saying that I do not want to participate in the study.

Estamos llevando a cabo un estudio especial para el Departamento de Justicia de Estados Unidos
para conocer más cómo viven los jóvenes en un centro correccional. El nombre del estudio es
Estudio Nacional de Jóvenes Detenidos.
El gobierno utilizará este estudio para ver si es necesario hacer cambios en instituciones como ésta.
Vamos a elaborar un informe sobre esta institución en el que integraremos las respuestas dadas por
los jóvenes que están aquí. En el informe no aparecerán nombres ni tampoco se dirá quién dijo qué
cosa.
Le estamos pidiendo a los jóvenes de todos los estados del país que participen en este estudio y
quisiéramos que tú también participaras. Si aceptas, responderás a las preguntas utilizando este
computador.
• Responder a las preguntas sólo te tomará unos 35 minutos.
•

Se te harán preguntas generales, así como preguntas acerca de cómo es vivir en esta
institución, el tratamiento que recibes de parte del personal y otros jóvenes que viven aquí
y acerca de tu salud física y mental.

• Puede que te hagan preguntas acerca de tu posible consumo de drogas o alcohol antes de
llegar a esta institución, tu contacto con personas fuera de la institución y tus planes para
después de salir de esta institución. O es posible que haya preguntas acerca de experiencias
sexuales, inclusive de las que pudieras haber tenido en esta institución.
• El computador, al azar, decidirá qué preguntas se te formularán, sin que ello tenga nada que
ver con la razón por la que estás en este lugar o con lo que puedas haberle contado a
alguien.
• Responder es fácil. Verás las preguntas escritas en la pantalla y las escucharás a través de
los audífonos. Tocas la pantalla del computador para responder a las preguntas.
• Nadie, ni siquiera yo, sabrá qué preguntas te fueron hechas ni lo que respondas.
De acuerdo con la Ley de reducción de papeleo, no podemos pedirte que respondas a una recolección de información a
menos que ésta muestre un número de control vigente de OMB. Se calcula que el tiempo para esta recolección de
información es de 35 minutos por cuestionario, incluyendo el tiempo necesario para revisar las instrucciones, buscar
fuentes de datos existentes, reunir y mantener los datos necesarios y completar y revisar la recolección de información.

• No estás obligado a participar en este estudio. Tú decides si lo quieres hacer.
Independientemente de lo que decidas hacer, tu decisión no afectará de ninguna manera
tu caso. Puedes empezar a responder a las preguntas y luego decidir detenerte en cualquier
momento. Solamente me tienes que decir que no quieres continuar y te diré qué debes
hacer. Si quieres saltarte una pregunta, también lo puedes hacer.
• Una ley protege tu privacidad. Si una persona infringe esta ley, el castigo puede incluir
multas de hasta 10,000 dólares.
• Todos los datos enviados por Internet desde y hacia computadores del gobierno están
sujetos a revisiones para la detección de amenazas de seguridad.
• Tus respuestas se utilizarán únicamente con el propósito de estudios estadísticos y siempre
se mantendrán confidenciales. Yo no te preguntaré tu nombre y tampoco se te pedirá que
lo escribas en el computador. Nunca nadie, ni los del proyecto ni el personal, sabrán qué
respondiste.
• Hay una excepción importante a esta regla de confidencialidad. Si me dices que tú o
alguien más ha sido objeto de abusos o maltratos, lo reportaré a la agencia gubernamental
que se encarga de investigar estos casos. Si me dices que corres el peligro de hacerte daño,
estaré obligado a contárselo a alguien en esta institución.
• Entonces, una vez más, si respondes en el computador, inclusive si se trata de un
abuso o un maltrato, nadie conocerá tu respuesta, ni siquiera yo. Pero, si me dices
a mí directamente que tú o alguien más ha sido objeto de abusos o maltratos, lo
reportaré a la agencia gubernamental que se encarga de investigar estos casos.
• Si pensar acerca de lo que te preguntan te perturba o te entristece, puedo concertarte una
cita para que te reúnas con un orientador que trabaja aquí. Si no quieres hablar con un
orientador que trabaja aquí, puedo concertarte una cita para que te reúnas con un
orientador que no trabaja aquí [o con alguien del ChildHelp National Hotline (1-800-4-AChild o 1-800-422-4453)]. Sólo me lo tienes que decir.
Si tienes preguntas, me las puedes hacer en cualquier momento mientras estoy aquí. [Después de que
me vaya,

Email Template for Initial Contact with Liaisons
Good (morning/afternoon/evening). My name is [NAME]. I left a message for you this
(morning/afternoon/evening) and am following up by email. I understand that you will be out
of the office until [DATE]. [I spoke with {NAME} and learned that you have been designated as
the liaison to the National Survey of Youth in Custody (NSYC).
The purpose of my call was to introduce myself and to review your role in the study. Specific
issues that I would like to discuss include the following:
1. Authorization and research review requirements: I would like to talk about procedures that
we will need to follow to obtain study clearance. For example, some (states/agencies) require
that the study be reviewed by a (state/agency) institutional review board (IRB). If IRB or any
other type of review is required, I would like to obtain a copy of the review procedures and
necessary forms so we can start completing them as soon as possible.
2. Security clearances for Westat staff: I need to identify any special requirements for the
survey team to gain access to the facilities, for example, background checks. If there are special
procedures or forms to be completed, I would like to get copies of these materials.
3. Mandatory reporting procedures: We consider our survey teams to be mandatory reporters
when youth make verbal allegations of abuse or harm, and therefore we will comply with all
state and local reporting requirements. We would like to review any written guidelines
pertaining to mandatory reporting for individuals housed in juvenile facilities. For example, we
would be looking for information on types of allegations that must be reported and how the
reports should be submitted including what office should receive the reports, what medium
(e.g., hardcopy, electronic) we will use, and what information to include in the reports.
4. Consent procedures: NSYC can implement various strategies to obtain consent for minors to
participate in the study:
A. In loco parentis, in which the agency or facility provides consent in lieu of the
parent/guardian. This procedure has been approved by Westat’s IRB in cases where the
agency or facility is willing to accept responsibility for providing consent. It was used
successfully in the previous NSYC studies and found to lessen the burden on facility staff
and increase response rates. If the agency or facility wishes to notify parents/guardians
about the study, Westat is able to assist with contacting them by mail and/or telephone.
B. Active parent/guardian consent, in which written or verbal consent is required from
the parent/guardian of each youth. This procedure was also successfully used in the
previous NSYC studies. It does require relatively more involvement by the liaison and
facility staff. For example, we would need to define the contact strategy (e.g., mail,
telephone, face- to-face) and schedule, assign responsibilities to Westat, facility, and
state staff for producing materials (e.g., letters, case status forms, instructions),
contacting
Email Template for Initial Contact with Liaisons

households, and tracking results. Westat is willing to take responsibility for as much of
this process as possible. If we are to contact parents/guardians, we will need the
names, addresses, and telephone numbers of parents/guardians and the names of
youth.
5. Counseling procedures: Since some of the survey questions ask about sensitive topics, our
IRB requires that facility counselors and outside counselors are available if youth request
services. We will need to identify appropriate options for providing external counselors (e.g.,
someone from the agency central office).
6. Documentation: Before we contact facilities, we will need documentation that the
(state/agency) has agreed to support NSYC.
I have also attached a study brochure, agency administration information sheet, agency roles
and responsibilities sheet, and the facility roles and responsibilities sheet for your convenience.
I will call you on [DATE] to discuss the study. In the meantime, please reply or call me if you
have any questions. My contact information is listed below. Thank you.
Sincerely,

National Survey
of Youth in
Custody (NSYC)

Sponsored by
Bureau of Justice Statistics
U.S. Department of Justice

The Bureau of Justice Statistics (BJS) carries
out the National Survey of Youth in
Custody (NSYC) in response to the Prison
Rape Elimination Act of 2003 (P.L. 108-79)
(PREA). The Act requires BJS to collect data
on the prevalence of sexual victimization of
youth living in juvenile correctional facilities
according to the prevalence of sexual
victimization.

The survey questions and possible answer
choices will appear on the computer
screen. At the same time, the youth can
listen through the headphones to a
recorded voice reading the text that
appears on the screen. Youth will touch
the computer screen to select an answer
for each question, moving along at their
own pace.

BJS conducted the first NSYC study in 2008;
over 10,000 youth from almost 200 facilities
nationwide took part. In 2012, the second
NSYC study (NSYC-2) was conducted, and
nearly 10,000 youth from 326 facilities across
the nation participated.

Questions will ask about their
experiences while living at the facility.
This includes questions about the staff,
the health services
the youth might
have used, and
other youth who
live in the facility.
Some youth will
also be asked
questions about
alcohol and drug use, contact with others
outside the facility and their plans after
release, and some will be asked about any
sexual experiences that might have
happened in the facility.

Adjudicated youth in state facilities or
placed by the state in non-state facilities
are eligible to participate.
Minors will be asked to take part in the
study only if (1) the state or facility provides
consent in loco parentis or (2) a legal guardian
provides consent. Minors (with consent)
and adult youth will be asked to complete
an interview.
The NSYC interview is done on a
computer. Youth spend about 30 minutes
completing the survey. Youth
who agree to take part
will be seated in front
of a laptop computer
and will put on a pair
of headphones.

Youths’ answers on the survey will
remain private and anonymous.
However, if a youth makes a verbal
allegation to the researcher about any
abuse or harm to himself or herself, or
another child, occurring in the facility, it
will be reported to the state or local
government agency that investigates these
kinds of problems.

NSYC-3 Study Brochure to State/Non-State Agencies and Facilities

State and non-state agencies will be
asked to support the study in the
following ways:

•

•

•

•

Define clearance procedures. Identify
procedures that are required for the
study to be conducted in the selected
juvenile facilities (e.g., submitting
study protocols for review, performing
background checks on data collection
staff).
Determine consent requirements.
Confirm state or non-state agency
standards for obtaining permission
to interview youth (i.e., in loco
parentis or active parent/guardian
consent).
Define mandatory reporting
procedures. Communicate the
requirements and procedures for
reporting verbal allegations of abuse
or neglect made by youth to the
research team.
Identify counseling support. Arrange
for counseling resources to be
available at each participating facility.
Both facility-based and nonfacility based
counselors (e.g.,
central office
staff) must be
identified.

Facilities will be asked to support the
study in the following ways:

•

•

•

•

Report on facility characteristics.
Provide information on general
facility and unit characteristics (e.g.,
number of state-placed adjudicated
youth) needed to plan the logistical
details of study activities at the
facility.
Provide youth rosters. Provide an
initial roster of state-placed
adjudicated youth and weekly
updates on discharges and newly
admitted youth.
Assist with consent requirements: If
active parent/guardian consent is
required, work with Westat (the
research firm conducting the study
for BJS) to determine and conduct
the appropriate procedures.
Arrange for visits by Westat
researchers. Schedule the data
collection visit and facilitate data
collection procedures (e.g., providing
private areas for youth to complete the
interview, escorting youth to and from
the interview areas).

•

Complete a facility survey. The
survey focuses on facility and unit
characteristics such as staffing,
surveillance, and other facility and
unit characteristics (e.g., facility
type).

•

Provide administrative records on
youth. Supply information on all
state-placed adjudicated youth at the
facility (e.g., most serious offense).

Further information on NSYC is
available. The study is sponsored by the
Bureau of Justice Statistics (BJS), an agency
within the U.S. Department of Justice.

State Director/Commissioner
1. Designate a State Liaison: The State Director/Commissioner will select a state staff
person who will serve as a liaison to the study. This liaison will work with the residential
juvenile facilities and Westat to prepare for and coordinate the survey team visit.
2. Provide State Clearance: The State Director/Commissioner will provide authorization,
via the State Liaison, for Westat to contact the selected facilities in your state to arrange for
participation in this survey.
State Liaison
1. Inform Facility Superintendent/Administrator and Identify a Facility Coordinator:
The State Liaison will contact the superintendents/administrators of the selected facilities in
the state to inform them of the NSYC study and identify a staff person in the facility who will
serve as the point-of-contact for scheduling and arranging for the survey team visit.
2. Communicate Requirements to Obtain Informed Consent for Minors: The State
Liaison will identify whether the state/facility will provide consent for adjudicated minors to
participate in the survey on behalf of the parents (i.e., in loco parentis). If this is not an
option for your state, the Liaison will work with the facility and Westat to define the
procedures for obtaining written or verbal consent from the minors’ parents/guardians.
3. Communicate Requirements for Reporting Data and Date of Destruction of Data:
The State Liaison will provide the state’s requirement for reporting NSYC’s state data and
will provide the date of destruction requirements.
4. Confirm State Mandatory Reporting Procedures: The State Liaison will confirm how
incidents should be reported to child welfare authorities if a youth informs the survey team of
abuse or neglect. Prior to the survey visit, the team will need to understand the state
mandatory reporting procedures and will need the telephone number and paperwork
requirements (if applicable) for submitting a report.
5. Assist in Obtaining Youth Rosters: The State Liaison will support NSYC to ensure
each facility provides complete and accurate rosters of all adjudicated youth in a timely
manner.
6. Specify Security Clearance Requirements for Westat Survey Staff: The State
Liaison will specify any special requirements for the survey team to gain access to the
facilities. This may include special identification requirements or background checks.

will provide Westat with a roster of state-placed adjudicated youth in the
facility. The roster will contain an identification number for each youth
(unrelated to other identifiers maintained by the facility), the gender, date of
birth, and date of admission.

4.

Provide roster updates: The coordinator will provide Westat with weekly roster
updates to add newly admitted youth and remove youth as they are discharged
from the facility.

5.

Support efforts to obtain consent for youth to participate: When possible,
the agency or facility will grant permission to interview youth in loco parentis. If
this is not possible, Westat will work with the coordinator to determine
appropriate procedures to obtain permission from parents/guardians. If Westat
assists in obtaining permission, the coordinator will provide parent/guardian
contact information as needed.

6.

Plan visit logistics: In preparation for the survey visit, the coordinator will identify
private rooms where each researcher will conduct the interviews and arrange the
daily schedule so youth can be available. These plans will be prepared in advance and
then confirmed when the team supervisor meets with the coordinator on the first day
of the visit.

7.

Arrange for counseling services: The coordinator will ensure that counseling is
available for youth, if requested. If the youth asks to speak with a counselor who is
not affiliated with the facility, services from an outside counselor should be arranged.

8.

Define mandatory reporting procedures: NSYC researchers are considered
subject to state and local mandatory reporting requirements. When youth make
verbal allegations of abuse or harm to a researcher, a report will be made. General
procedures will be specified by the agency liaison. However, the facility coordinator
will be asked to define the specific procedures for the facility (e.g., name and contact
information for the agency designated to receive the report).

9.

Provide administrative records data: The coordinator will complete an
administrative data form that collects information (e.g., reason for placement, most
serious offense) about all state-placed adjudicated youth in the facility.

10.

Provide support during data collection visit: The coordinator will be the point of
contact while the interviews are taking place. This includes scheduling the interviews
for the selected youth and arranging for staff to escort youth to and from the
interview rooms.

LIST OF FACILITIES
[INSERT FACILITIES]
We understand that Westat, a research corporation located in Rockville, Maryland, will soon contact these facilities to enroll
them in NSYC, a national survey of youth in custody sponsored by the U.S. Department of Justice, Bureau of Justice
Statistics. NSYC is designed to obtain information about all adjudicated youth in state facilities and state-placed
adjudicated youth in non-state facilities in [INSERT STATE] and nationwide. Ultimately, the findings from the NSYC
will inform policymakers at the national and state levels about the experiences of youth in custody.
Westat will send materials to [this facility/each of these facilities] which will detail the process to be used to conduct
the survey. The materials will advise facilities that BJS and Westat will keep confidential all information identifiable to a
youth, with the exception of verbal statements by youth indicating abuse or harm.
We will encourage facilities to cooperate in this effort. If facilities have any questions regarding this cooperative effort,
they may contact [INSERT LIAISON AND CONTACT INFO].

Appendix I
NSYC-3
Data Security Plan
The security of project data is of the utmost importance to Westat. Therefore, as part of our research
proposal, this Data Security Plan outlines the steps to be taken to ensure the confidentiality of study
data and the anonymity of respondents at all stages in the transfer, collection, and processing of files.
This Data Security Plan reflects the objective of all Westat IT security policies and practices, which is to
protect systems and data from a wide range of risks, to comply with the various legislative and
contractual requirements of clients, and to educate staff regarding their responsibilities to comply with
these policies.
Westat Information Technology and Systems (ITS) Security Policy and Best Practices, attached, describes
the security policies, principles, standards and compliance requirements that are important to Westat
and addresses the Data Security Plan requirements.
The following cross-references those requirements with ITS and addresses our compliance with each of
the data security requirements specified in OCFS’s Research Approval Policy.
Name and contact information for the person(s) responsible for implementing and monitoring
adherence to the Data Security Plan:

Data Access Restricted to Authorized Users
Per Westat Information Technology and Systems (ITS) Security Policy and Best Practices (Section 2),
access to network storage areas, files, and other resources are controlled through the use of directory
and file access rights, which are granted to specifically authorized users. Those users are assigned
privileges based on the functions of the users within each application. For example, resource privileges
and data definition privileges are restricted to technical staff, and database administration accounts are
assigned only to trained, authorized senior staff. Westat identification and authentication policy and
procedures are discussed in Sections 3-4. ITS Section 3 discusses network and communications security,
including password, encryption, and related policies. ITS Section 4 discusses personnel security, and
includes identification and authentication policies. These policies are reviewed annually by the
Corporate Officer for Systems Security (COSS) who coordinates review with technical committees and
corporate management as appropriate.
As described in the Westat Information Technology and Systems (ITS) Security Policy and Best Practices,
information is protected at rest and during transmission by the use of various encryption technologies
such as disk encryption, file encryption, TLS/SSL, digital certificates and digital signatures.
Restrictions on Direct Identifying Information
The following discusses the projects approach to specific data restriction on direct identifying
information such as names and addresses.
• must be kept in a data file separate from the other subject data

only one file containing those data
stored on a computer located in a locked room with access limited to persons authorized to use
the data
should be stored in an encrypted format
Removable electronic storage media such as diskettes, CD-ROMs, and USB storage devices must
be encrypted and stored in a locked cabinet.
Paper files, recording devices, and tapes also must be stored in a secure/locked cabinet.
subject data must not be accessible through the Internet

Per Westat Information Technology and Systems (ITS) Security Policy and Best Practices (Section 1),
access to Westat facilities is controlled at all times through the use of magnetic key cards assigned to
individual staff; certain contracted consultants, and, in a few cases, selected vendor staff with
established long-term business relationships. Some internal spaces such as computer centers have
additional magnetic card key locks; others are secured with combination locks.
Per Section 2, information in hard copy form, including information system output, is kept in locked
cabinets or spaces when not in use. Media containing sensitive information are securely stored in rooms
and/or desks, filing cabinets, or other containers. High-security cabinets with additional locks and bars
are available if necessary. Large volumes of sensitive media are stored in designated "field rooms",
which are controlled access spaces.
Destruction of Confidential Data
Confidential data will be destroyed by date stipulated in Westat IRB submission. Per Westat Information
Technology and Systems (ITS) Security Policy and Best Practices (Section 2), media that contain data are
sanitized by degaussing, low-level formatting, or other destructive methods. Hardcopy media
containing sensitive information are shredded and recycled. Secure bulk shredding services are
provided, with secure shredding bins available for hardcopy materials in most Westat
facilities. Per Westat Network Technical Services Operating Standards and Procedures, tape media are
degaussed using a Proton 8000 magnetic media degausser; an itemized listing of tape identifiers is
created and a transmittal letter sent to a local media destruction vendor who then transport the tapes
to their facility for shredding. After the materials are destroyed a confirmation letter is returned to
Westat certifying final destruction. GDisk is used to destroy information stored on hard disk drives by
erasing the master boot record, removing any existing partition(s), and reformatting the drive three
times. Other digital media are stored in a padlocked container then degaussed and destroyed in bulk, in
the same manner as backup tapes except that no transmittal letter is prepared.
Data Flow
The information system resides within and is hosted by Westat’s corporate network. System
components are in secured and controlled spaces. All access is controlled by authentication methods to
validate the approved users. Encryption products used to protect system data, where encryption is
required, are FIPS 140-2 validated and certified. The project information flow is described below.

NSYC-3 Post-Pilot Test Report: NSYC-core and NSYC-Alternative Survey
Findings and Recommendations

Introduction
This memo presents the methods and results from the Pilot test for the third National Survey of
Youth in Custody (NSYC-3). The Pilot was conducted in February and March 2017. The goals of
the Pilot test were to: (1) assess the length of time to complete the survey, (2) test the skip
patterns and routing instructions for youth assigned to each version of the survey, and
(3) determine whether any specific items were problematic.
In the remainder of this memo, we describe the conclusions of the Pilot test in more detail
including an overview of the methodology and results, presentation of selected descriptive
findings, and a summary of our recommendations.

Methodology
This section provides an overview of the research methodology, including brief descriptions of
the data collection procedures, survey instruments, and review of the skip patterns and routing.

Data Collection
Experienced NSYC-2 field staff visited six residential juvenile facilities. Facility staff escorted
161 youth to the interview rooms; of these, 151 completed a survey. Youth were assigned to either
the NSYC-core or NSYC-A instruments based on the following algorithm – the first case in a
facility was assigned to NSYC-A and every 6th case thereafter (e.g., cases 1, 7, 13, 19 etc.). All
others were assigned the NSYC-core survey. This resulted in 126 youth (83%) completing the
NSYC-core survey and 25 (17%) the NSYC-A survey. Details on the data collection procedures
are in the NSYC-3 pilot test procedures memo submitted to BJS on 04/13/2017.

-2-

Survey Instruments
The NSYC-core contains 488 items and NSYC-A contains 260 items. Table 1 shows the
number of items per section and the constructs measured. Figure 1 illustrates the routing paths
of the two instruments and the padding instructions.
The NSYC-A instrument comprises Sections A, B, and F from the NSYC-core instrument,
plus Section G. Youth sampled for the NSYC-core survey are also routed to Section G when
they complete Sections A, B, C, D, E, and F, in less than 35 minutes. This routing is done to
extend the survey administration time to 35 minutes so that all youth spend a similar time
taking the survey regardless of whether or not they report sexual victimization.

Pilot Test Results
This section provides findings on four aspects of the pilot test survey: (1) checking the skip
patterns of the questionnaire, (2) survey timings, (3) nonresponse patterns, and (4) variation in the
items. Note that frequencies for all NSYC-core and NSYC-A survey items can be found in a
separate attachment, Appendix A.

-4-

Checking Skip Patterns and Routing
One goal of the NSYC-3 pilot test was to test the skip patterns and routing instructions for youth
assigned to each version of the survey. While the team had conducted extensive in-house testing
of the skips prior to the pilot, the pilot offered an opportunity to check the skips for paths that
would occur in the actual survey. The patterns were checked in two ways. One was to check the
skip patterns for each of the respondents. This was done by two reviewers observing the raw data
in an Excel spreadsheet. The second method was by checking frequencies and cross tabulations in
SAS.
These reviews revealed two inconsistencies. The first inconsistency was related to an incorrect
timing specification. For the NSYC-core, the ACASI program tracked the elapsed time from the
start of the Tutorial to the end of Section F and at the end of each subsections in Section G. The
threshold specifications for total elapsed time is 35 minutes, i.e., if less than 35 minutes, the
ACASI program continues to the next section (i.e., from F to G or to the next topic in G) to pad
the time. When the elapsed time is 35 minutes or more at any of these time checks, the ACASI is
routed to the Debriefing section. The pilot test, however, used a 30-minute threshold for routing
youth from Section F to Section G and 33 minutes for continuing to subsequent topics within
Section G. This programming specification error caused the ACASI for six youth to have less
padding than intended. Due to the small number of youth affected, there was a negligible effect
on the overall timing calculations.
The second inconsistency required a minor correction in the programming for items F340C by
F350C. F340C is an item that asks if the youth had been in a group home, foster home, or
independent living program. If the answer to this is ‘yes’, the youth is asked how many times they
had been in this type of place. Cross tabulations of these items revealed that the skip logic did not
work correctly. For example, there were 19 yes responses on F340C that should have values for
F350C but they were shown as missing.
As an additional check on the skip patterns, the review team verified the routing for the sexual
victimization variables. NSYC-1 and -2 reports focused on three measures of sexual victimization
to generate national estimates: forced sexual victimization by another youth (youth-on-youth), any
sexual activity with a staff member (staff sexual misconduct), and any sexual victimization (any
assault). The latter is a combination of the youth-on-youth and staff sexual misconduct measures.
The process is described below and illustrated in Table 2.
1.

First, the number of youth assigned to the core survey was broken down by youth sex
and age since these characteristics determine gender- and age-specific items in the
questionnaire. For example, Section C, Battery A sexual victimization wording is
specifically tailored for males and female anatomy when a youth is 15 or older and
more generalized for youth under 15. The correct routing was verified by comparing
counts of youth by sex and age to the responses logged with the associated variables.

-52.

Next, reviewers identified the number of youth indicating sexual activity (n=18) based
on items in Section C (Battery A and B) and the perpetrator type (another youth
and/or staff). Nine youth identified another youth, eight selected a staff member, and
one youth refused to answer.

3.

Finally, reviewers evaluated cases where the respondent endorsed another youth as
the perpetrator (n=9) and indicated the use of force. A total of five youth indicated
force.

Survey Timings
The timing data are based on the 151 cases with a status code of “complete.” This includes four
youth that, although they broke off before the end of the survey, met the criteria that defined a
completed interview in NSYC-2 (i.e., through Section C for the NSYC-core, through Section F

Section G.
Timing data for the 126 youth that completed the NSYC-core and 25 youth that completed
NSYC-A are shown in Table 3. The time to complete the survey (Tutorial through Debrief) was
34.9 minutes for NSYC-core and 33.5 for the NSYC-A youth.

Item Nonresponse
All survey items were evaluated for high levels of nonresponse by examining the number of
“don’t know” (DK) or “refused” (RF) replies. Six sets of items (in bold) were identified as having
nonresponse rates of five percent or greater (see Table 4). These are discussed in detail below.

Percentages based on only eligible cases (e.g., dominator is only youth that received the item).

-8Race. The first high nonresponse item was youth race (item A080) with a DK/RF rate of
5.3 percent (n=8). In all eight cases, the nonresponse on race was from youth of Hispanic
ethnicity (see Table 5). This pattern is not unusual for a race item, and the survey is currently
following the ‘best practice’ standard of first asking about Hispanic ethnicity before asking about
race. This minimizes the amount of nonresponse to the race item and stays within current OMB
guidelines.

Veracity Check. The second item with high nonresponse was designed as a veracity check to
ensure youth are paying attention as they complete the survey (F290). The wording of this item
was “For this survey item, select response 2”. While the nonresponse rate for F290 was six
percent, almost 10 percent of all youth selected the incorrect response for this item (see Table 4).
In comparison, a similar veracity check item, “I am reading this survey carefully,” there was no
selection of DK/RF and only one percent (1.32%) selected an incorrect answer. Additional
exploration of F290 did not reveal any significant associated patterns; these patterns included
examining F290 by youth sex and age, facility, instrument type (NSYC-core vs. NSYC-A), sexual
victimization, and key debriefing items, such as if the questions were hard to understand and
pressure to respond. This suggests that youth were confused by how to respond to this item.
Other Items. In Table 4, above, the third (F190), fourth (AF650), fifth (AF670) and six (DB050),
sets of items with higher nonresponse items were related to asking respondents for more details
about a prior response (e.g., who did it; why didn’t you receive letters, etc.). They also deal with
sensitive topics. Item F190 series, “Who did this to you?” is based on response to F170 about
prior physical abuse by a grown up. Item AF650 series, “Why didn’t you receive letters from your
family?” is based on response to AF640 about how often received letters. Item AF670 series,
“Why didn’t you send letters to your family?” is based on response to AF660 about how often
send letters. The item DB050 series asks about, “Which kinds of questions made you upset?” and
is based response to DB040 assessing if any of the survey questions were upsetting. While the
nonresponse rate is relatively high for these items (from 6.2% to 22.2%), only 2 to 4 youth chose
not to respond. Given the open-ended and sensitive nature of the items, the higher than average
nonresponse rates are not unusual.

Items with Very Little Variation
Variation across items was evaluated using a standard of five percent of less (<5%). Almost all
survey responses had greater variation than this with the exception of four items designed to
capture low prevalence conditions and one designed as a veracity check (see Table 6).

This item also had a 8.7 percent nonresponse rate of eligible cases (e.g., dominator is only youth that received the item).

Items F040, F060, and F070 are designed to capture physical disabilities and AF420 is designed to
capture youth placed with a relative, but designated as foster care placement. The selection rate
was very low for these items but expected (0.0% – 2.7%). F110 and AF140 are veracity checks
that had very low anticipated selection (1.3%). It is also important to note that a number of items
designed to measure specific features of sexual victimization had little or no responses due to the
low prevalence of sexual victimization overall.

Selected Frequencies and Cross-tabulations
This section reviews frequencies and tabulations for a few selected variables. The entire set of
frequencies are shown in a separate attachment, Appendix A.

ethnic and racial backgrounds (see Table 8.). Almost 17 percent of youth were of Hispanic
ethnicity. The majority of youth were white (59.6%), over one-third black or African American
(35.1%), over 10 percent identified as American Indian or Alaskan Native (AIAS) (11.3%), over
1 percent as Asian (1.3%) and just over 5 percent (5.3%) as Native Hawaiian or other Pacific

Sexual Orientation and Gender Identity. NSYC-1 and NSYC-2 contained one item for sexual
orientation (SO) and one item for gender identify (GI). Revising the instrument for NSYC-3
provided an opportunity to refine the measurement of SOGI status using a two step-process for
each. For gender identity, youth were first asked, “What sex were you assigned at birth, on your
original birth certificate?” (A90) and then “Do you currently describe yourself as male, female or
transgender?” (A100). The counts of youth by birth sex and GI are presented in Table 9. Results
show that three males at birth identify currently as female, transgender, or something else, and
two females at birth identify currently as transgender.

For sexual orientation, youth were first asked about sexual identity “Do you consider
yourself...gay/lesbian, straight that is not gay, bisexual, something else, or not sure?” (A110). They
were then asked about sexual attraction “People are different in their sexual attraction to other
people. Which best describes your feelings?” (A120). The counts of youth sexual identity by youth
birth sex are shown in Table 10. Twelve out of 128 males and 14 out of 23 females self-identified
as gay/lesbian, bisexual, something else, not sure, or don’t know (DK). Females were more likely
than males to identify as a category other than straight and this is consistent with results found on
NSYC-1 and -2. It is also evident that youth are using the ‘something else’ and ‘not sure’
categories which provides support for continued inclusion of these categories.

The patterns across these two variables are consistent with what is expected. Male youth
identifying as gay are selecting attraction to only males and mostly males. Male youth identifying as
bisexual are selecting the middle sexual attraction categories. Male youth identifying as straight are
selecting attraction only to females. Youth that identify as something else and not sure and don’t
know (DK) are selecting attraction that is not mutually exclusive. Similar results are evident for
females.
Rates of Sexual Victimization. The rates of sexual victimization for this small, purposively
selected, sample of facilities cannot be generalized to the nation. Nonetheless, we computed rates
to assess whether the answers were similar in nature to prior surveys. Overall rates of
victimization in the NSYC-3 pilot test were consistent with NSYC-2 at just under 10 percent
(see Table 12).

Mental Health. To best understand the prevalence of certain mental health conditions, the K6
battery was added to the NSYC-3 survey instrument. The results show that the vast majority of
youth experienced one or more feelings of depression and/or anxiety over the past 30 days
(see Table 14). Over one-third described having these feeling more often than usual (34.4%). In
contrast, a little over 5 percent of youth (5.3%) report not experiencing any of these symptoms
over the past 30 days.

Solitary Confinement/Isolation. Items about solitary confinement were also added to the
NSYC-3 survey. Over one-third of youth report being isolated/secluded in a room other than
their own (35.8%) and just under half report being confined to their own room (44.4%)
(see Table 15). We are not clear whether this rate is higher than what one would expect and/or
whether the measure is overestimating solitary confinement as intended for the survey. We plan to
discuss this with BJS to see if any further modifications to these items is warranted.

Recommendations
We are not recommending any significant changes to the survey process. Overall, the instrument
performed as designed. The youth took about the average time expected (35 minutes) and
provided responses within reasonable ranges. The skip patterns on the computerized instrument
worked as specified with a couple of minor exceptions. Only a single item was found to be
ineffective – a veracity check that instructed the youth “For this survey item, select response 2.”
(Response options were (1) Do not select this one, (2) Select this one, (3) Do not select this one).
This item, F290, did not work as intended and we recommend deleting it.
