Abstract

This poster will detail the outcomes of a multiple linear regression analysis, which utilized a School Climate survey and absenteeism data of over 100,000 students in Clark County, Nevada. The sub-scale "Bullying" was analyzed at the item level to predict school absenteeism. Both significant and non-significant predictors are reported.
