    Geography: Census metropolitan area
    Description:

    This Juristats contains the first highlights of the International Youth Survey (IYS). It is the Canadian version of the International Self-Reported Delinquency Study that was conducted in over 30 countries in 2006. This survey addresses several questions and issues that are closely linked to youth delinquency and will allow for international comparisons on such issues. In Canada, the survey was conducted with the Toronto District School Board and certain private schools. More than 3,200 youth in grades 7 to 9 participated during the spring of 2006.

    The report examines the prevalence of various delinquent behaviours and analyzes acts of violence and acts against property separately. The report also examines risk factors for youth delinquency, such as alcohol and drug use, the quality of parent-youth relationships, parental supervision and delinquent friends. The prevalence of youth victimization is also examined.

    Description:

    Activities in a child's home environment, such as daily reading, high positive parent child interaction, participation in organized sports, as well as lessons in physical activities and the arts are associated with a child's readiness to learn in school at age 5. According to a recent study, children in lower-income households were less likely to have exposure to these activities -- however, those who did were more ready to learn than those who did not. The analysis draws on data from the National Longitudinal Survey of Children and Youth (NLSCY) to describe the readiness to learn at school of Canadian children who were 5 years old in 2002-2003.
