Summary 

"The HBSC research network is an international alliance of researchers that collaborate on a cross-national survey of school students: Health Behaviour in School-aged Children (HBSC). The HBSC collects data every four years on 11-, 13- and 15- year-old boys' and girls' health and well-being, social environments and health behaviours. These years mark a period of increased autonomy that can influence how their health and health-related behaviors develop." Source: 2017/18 HSBC study documentation edition 1.0
