The investigation is of type longitudinal and has the aim of studying, monitoring and deepening the ongoing changes in human interaction in adolescence. The investigation, which will begin in January 2024 and has a duration of 5 years, involves the conduct of interviews to be administered using a semi-structured electronic questionnaire CAPI (Computer-assisted personal interviewing) a male and female students of schools secondary schools of the Metropolitan City of Rome Capitals located in dissimilar territories due to socio-economic and demographic characteristics.

Thematic areas of investigation
The MIB survey covers four thematic areas:
- Section 1. Socio-personal information relating to respondents and their families of origin;
- Section 2. Social interaction and well-being;
- Section 3. Deviance and social conditioning;
- Section 4. Values and opinions.
For their study, a semi-structured questionnaire is administered to male and female students in electronic format that can be filled out with the main IT devices. The data collection method is anonymous and assisted (CAPI) and requires the presence of researchers and/or interviewers from the MUSA group in the field, i.e. in each classroom at the time of the survey. This approach, which increases survey times and costs, has the important advantage of guaranteeing high reliability of the data collected as it guarantees that the questionnaire is filled out with certainty by the selected survey units, promotes full understanding of the questions and prevents the direct and indirect influences exerted on the respondents at the time of the survey as a result of the interaction between peers and between students and teachers.
