DESIGN AND METHODS Cross sectional secondary analysis of 11,432 adolescents (51% 8th and 49% 10th graders).

Differences were observed among groups. PRACTICE IMPLICATIONS Nurses can address individual and school factors in an effort to decrease AU and guide nurses in creating an individualized plan.
