Abstract: The National Crime Victimization Survey collects analyzes publishes, and disseminates statistics on the amount and type of crime committed against households and indiduals in the U.S. Respondents include persons 12 years or older living in about 50,322 interviewed households in 203 stratification PSUs. This change is to make a change in questions #167, 168 and 169 on the NCVS-2 and NCVS-2(SP). Debriefing with interviewers indicated respondents didn't like old questions.

Short Statement: In Jully, a 14% sample cut resulted in a decrease of 8,484 burden hours. For July 2008, we propose removing vandalism and hate crime questions for household respondents (-327 hours) in order to add questions on the emotional toll for violent crime victims (35 hours). The net change for July 2008 is a reduction by 312 hours. Combined there is a 8,796 hour reduction.
