What is the Washington Young Adult Health Survey?
The Washington Young Adult Health Survey (WYAHS) is a statewide online survey going into its 10th year of data collection in Washington State, with the aim of collecting information about health behaviors in young adults. On top of inviting a new group of participants each year, we invite participants who have already completed surveys to participate again so that we can see if and how behaviors change over time. The survey is conducted by the University of Washington in partnership with the Washington State Health Care Authority.
Who can participate?
18-25 year olds in Washington State are eligible to participate and earn a $15 Amazon gift card. Returning WYAHS participants may be older than 25 years old, but can still participate. However, first time participants must be within 18-25 years old.
