In PISA 2006 there were two components to the student questionnaires: A part which collected background information on students and their learning environment, and another section which looked at computer familiarity. There was also a school questionnaire filled out by the senior administrator in the school of the sampled students . The codebooks for the student and school questionnaires can be downloaded here.
