Introduction (INT) - Question identifier:INT_R01

This study is being done with researchers at McMaster University in Hamilton. This questionnaire asks about you, your family, your friends, how you feel and what you like to do. Your answers will help the government to plan programs and services for young people like yourself. This is not a test and there are no right or wrong answers. Some questions may seem personal and some are about things not everybody does. Take your time and please be sure to answer each question based on what you really think. You can choose whether or not to fill out this questionnaire. If you need help with any questions, you may ask the interviewer.

Statistics Canada will keep your answers private.
