The Social Emotional Health Surveys were developed in 2010 and have been extensively evaluated via university-school partnerships. We make our best effort to substantiate the credibility, utility, and psychometric properties of these measures through publications in peer-reviewed journals.
We are in Year 5 of an Institute of Education Sciences funded project. In September 2017, we began a longitudinal study of students in Grades 9-11, which we will conclude in October 2020). With our WestEd partners, we have also complied a cross-sectional sample of 120,000 secondary (Grades 7-12) students.
