Intro to Protective Factors Research shows that supportive schools and communities foster positive outcomes by promoting students’ sense of: Connectedness (1997) Resnick et al. , Belonging (1995) Baumeister & Leary, Community (1997) Schaps, et al. , Protective Factors (1991) Benard
Intro to Protective Factors California Healthy Kids Survey (CHKS) collects student data on Protective Factors 3 Protective factors Caring Relationships, High Expectations, Meaningful Participation School Protective Factor Score Community Protective Factor Score Also collects data on School Connectedness (Add Health) Degree to which students feel close to people at school, a part of the school, treated fairly, happy, and safe at school. Found to be protective against every health risk measure
Resilience Scales The RYD chart in every CHKS Main Report highlights Protective Factor Scores as well as School Connectedness
Resilience Scales Often the easiest way to decipher these percentages is to concentrate on those scoring ‘High’ and comparing to previous reports and state averages
Resilience Scales Using CSCS (staff responses)
Resilience Scales Since 0708 the Main Reports also have the RYD charts disaggregated by ethnicity (6 major ethnicities) American Indian or Alaska Native Hawaiian or Pacific Islander Asian Black or African American Hispanic or Latino/Latina White or Caucasian
