PPAAUS

The Primary Prevention Awareness, Attitude & Use Survey

The Safe and Drug-Free Schools Consortium has administered the Primary Prevention, Awareness, Attitude and Use Survey (PPAAUS) seven times since 1988. The purpose of PPAAUS is to:

  • Provide information that can be used to guide prevention and intervention programs
  • Track changes over time in use of alcohol, tobacco, other drugs
  • Identify some of the correlates and predictors of drug and alcohol use
  • Identify areas of problem behaviors and safety concerns

PPAAUS is designed to measure student attitudes and reported use of alcohol, tobacco and other drugs and provide information on violence and safety issues.

Sixth through twelfth graders in the 16 public school districts and 36 non-publics in Franklin County completed the latest survey in the fall of 2006.
