Sisällön kuvaus

The survey studied the extent, frequency and nature of self-reported offending among young people in Finland as well as their attitudes towards crime and experiences of being victims. The 2012 survey, which is the seventh of its kind, differs from the surveys of previous years in that it was expanded to include sixth-graders (pupils aged 12-13) in addition to ninth-graders (pupils aged 15-16).

Questions covered truancy, vandalising school property or other property, theft, shoplifting, motor vehicle theft, burglary, online piracy, bullying, taking part in a fight, assault, robbery, possession of a weapon, alcohol use, and use of other intoxicating substances. If the respondents admitted to having done any of the acts mentioned, they were asked whether they had done it in the previous 12 months and how many times. Relating to some of the offences, the respondents were also presented with specifying questions about the last time they had committed the act, for example, whether they had acted alone, whether they had been drunk at the time, whether the act had been revenge for some previous incident, what they had stolen, and whether the motive for a violent act had been discriminatory. Ninth-graders were also asked whether the police had found out about the offences committed.

The respondents were also asked whether they had been a victim of vandalism, violent robbery, theft, bullying, threats of violence, assault, discriminatory harassment or violence, parental corporal punishment, or cyberbullying and cyberthreats. If the respondents had been a victim of any of the acts, they were asked whether they had experienced it in the previous 12 months and how many times. Relating to some of the experiences, the respondents were also presented with specifying questions about the last time they had been a victim of the crime, for instance, whether the perpetrator had been male or female, how old the perpetrator had been, what his/her ethnicity had been, whether the respondent had sustained injuries, and what had been stolen. Relating to experiences of violence, the respondents were further presented with a list of people (e.g. friend, mother, father, unknown adult, teacher, coach/instructor) and asked whether any of them had physically assaulted them (hit, kicked, or used a weapon).

Family and circumstances at home were surveyed with questions about the extent to which parents supported and were interested in the respondent's life. Relating to leisure time, questions probed how often the respondents were away from home in the evenings, visited parties, spent long periods of time online, watched violent films etc. Questions on neighbourhood and school investigated the prevalence of graffitis, vandalism and alcohol/drug abuse in the neighbourhood, and the prevalence of vandalism and disruptive behaviour at school. The respondents were also asked whether their friends had used cannabis, shoplifted or been in a fight in a public place.

A number of items from the Big Five Inventory (John et al.) were presented and the respondents were requested to indicate to what extent they thought the characteristics applied to them (e.g. "I am talkative", "I tend to be lazy"). Additionally, the respondents were asked to what extent they agreed with statements relating to their propensity to take risks, tendency to think ahead and to be considerate of others (e.g. "Sometimes I take a risk just for the fun of it", "If people get upset over something I do, that's their problem, not mine").

Finally, the respondents were asked the future probability of them shoplifting or being in a fight, insecurity experienced in certain places, acceptability of certain acts for young people (e.g. lying, online piracy, shoplifting), and to what extent they agreed with statements relating to breaking the law (e.g. "It is acceptable to take revenge on a person who hurts/insults a friend of mine").

Respondents on the ninth grade were asked additional questions. Questions charted sleep problems as well as whether the respondents felt certain descriptions (found in the Antisocial Process Screening Device-Self-Report, Frick et al.) applied to them (e.g. "I blame others for my mistakes", "I keep same friends").

The background variables included, among others, the respondent's sex, age, country of birth, school performance (maths, Finnish, English), and household composition as well as years lived in the municipality of residence, attendance in remedial education during the school year, language spoken at home, parents' economic activity, perceived financial circumstances of family, and whether R had ever had to repeat a grade. Ninth-graders were also asked their dating status and plans after basic education.

Probability: Stratified: Proportional

In the creation of the sample, the sampling unit was school. Sufficient representativeness of different municipality types was ensured during sampling. School size was also taken into consideration. Sampling was carried out by Statistics Finland. A total of 8,914 pupils on sixth and ninth grades of basic education responded to the survey (persons aged 12-13 and 15-16). There is a total of 4,059 responses from sixth-grade pupils in 102 elementary schools and 4,855 responses from ninth-grade pupils in 51 secondary/middle schools. The data were collected as an online survey, to which the pupils responded during a school day. Contact teachers, who had been instructed in collecting survey data, assisted in data collection at schools.

Aineiston käytössä huomioitavaa

The data contain variable koulunr (school id) created at FSD, which is based on the original school id. This variable allows identifying the observations belonging to the same cluster.

Background variables disclosing the original IDs and municipality of residence as well as variables q11_5_2 (Other language or languages, which?), q36_2 (Do you have any long-term illness or a disability or health problem which affects your functional ability? Yes, which?), q13_2 and q15_2 (information on the country of birth) and bv_lk (grade identifier) were removed from the data during archiving. Additionally, the age variable was divided into two separate variables bv2a and bv2b according to grade level and exceptional ages were removed. Identifying information was categorised or removed from the open-ended responses left in the data. Changes done in the FSD have been marked with [double square brackets].

Painokertoimet

There is a weight variable 'analyysipaino' (analysis weight) that corrects for the bias caused by sample selection and non-response at the school-level. Statistics Finland carried out the weighting of collected data.
