Attitudes of student leaders in high schools throughout the United States were examined in a survey conducted by Who's Who Among American High School Students and Northbrook, Illinois. Subjects were students who had been selected for inclusion in Who's Who during the 1978-79 academic year. Some 23,200 completed questionnaires were analyzed on topics such as national priorities and policies, the draft, energy, drug and alcohol use, religious beliefs, career goals, marriage and sex views, capital punishment, the environment, and the media. Statistical analyses were tabulated by total response; breakdowns by sex, race, geographical region, type of community, age, future plans, grade point average, and family incomes were also included.
