ABSTRACT

This study applied multilevel analysis using data from 54,653 middle and high school students who participated in the “2024 Korea Youth Risk Behavior Survey" to examine the effects of individual-level and school-level risk factors on injuries occurring within schools. The results showed that differences in school-related injuries among students were explained by school-level factors by 19.56%. At the individual level, experiences of school violence, engagement in high-intensity physical activity, being male, depression, suicidal ideation, and high-risk drinking were associated with a higher risk of injury at school. At the school level, schools that were middle schools, or had higher rates of safety education completion showed a higher risk of school injuries. The findings of this study suggest that the continuous development and implementation of comprehensive programs are essential for preventing injury risks in schools. Furthermore, focused management of risk factors associated with injury occurrence is warranted.
