Safeguards are used in the survey to look for erroneous or exaggerated responses. “Fake” drugs are asked about. 2% were classified as exaggerated and were thrown out.
40 inconsistency checks are used. If a student was inconsistent three or more times, their results were thrown out. 2% were classified as inconsistent.
Anonymity• Surveys mailed to district office• Surveys counted and picked up by campus
coordinator who then divided surveys and gave to classroom teachers along with a manila envelope for that class
