question that triggered this incident. For example, if SQTHEFT is the
screener question that is the basis of the current incident, then fill
SCREENERNOTE with the entry from SQTHEFTSPEC.
06/06/07 --> If the number of times (SQTHEFTTIMES, for example) is 2 or more
then each incident attached to the same screener should have the same
SCREENERNOTES display. This comes into play in the Editing/Coding
instrument screens INCROSTER_EC and DELINCROSTER_EC
The fill SCREENERNOTE should be based on the entry in the following fields
(SQTHEFTSPEC or SQBREAKINSPEC or SQMVTHEFTSPEC or
SQATTACKWHERESPEC or SQATTACKHOWSPEC or
SQTHEFTATTACKKNOWNOFFSPEC or SQSEXUALSPEC or
SQCALLPOLICESPEC or SQNOCALLPOLICESPEC or
SQVANDOTHERCRIMESPEC)

(SQVANDOTHERCRIME, SQVANDOTHERCRIMESPEC) that can initiate a crime
report because they were originally left out of the specs. The SCREENERNOTE
does get filled with the value in SQVANDOTHERCRIMESPEC (verified in

Description: These are basically the same single and multiple offender questions except the order
of some of the questions was changed. Furthermore the questions HAPPEN and
HAPPENSPEC are not included in this block because the revised race of offender block
is only asked when the respondent reports being attacked, a victim of an attempted
attack, a threat, of victim of sexual contact with or without force. HAPPEN is asked
when only other household members were reported present. We have also added three
new questions to comply with the OMB guidelines for asking ethnicity and race. These
questions will only be asked during interview number 7 when the respondent is present
and reports being the victim of a violent crime. These 3 new questions are currently
being translated into Spanish.

The text should wrap from row to row, so the interviewer will not have to press the
"enter" key to move to the next row (like it is currently coded in the mini-module).
This ITEM is an Editing/Coding instrument item.
Once the incident roster has completed cycling all the incidents for a person, determine
if any more incidents should be appended to the roster from
INCIDENTNUMBEROFTIMES, that is, if INCIDENTNUMBEROFTIMES is greater
than what was reported in the screener (as captured in SQTHEFT_CNT,
SQBREAKIN_CNT, SQMVTHEFT_CNT, etc).
If so then perform a roster reopen/append until the the difference between
INCIDENTNUMBEROFTIMES and the screener count have been added to the roster
(or until the maximum number of incidents has been reached).
Once the append is done, go to INCIDENTINTRO to cycle through the incident roster
again.
This process will be repeated until INCIDENTNUMBEROFTIMES is less than or equal
to NUMBRINC (the screener count).

respondents This fills the beginning date (month, day, year) of the reference
period. For example, September 6, 2003. If respondent is the household
respondent (for continuing cases) then the beginning of the reference period is
the date of last interview for the last household respondent. If this is a
continuing case and the respondent is new to the household (LSTINTDATE is

However, if respondent was a noninterview 12 months ago, the beginning of
the reference period is the 1st day of the month 12 months ago (this is setup

BNCVS2.RaceOffRespondentDebrief
Description: *** These questions were never implemented as it was determined the questions have
to be implemented per OMB and had been pseudo cognitively tested since the change
in race categories had been tested prior to implementing them in the Demographics
section in 2003 (?) ***\
\
Questions to be added beginning April 2011 and asked of respondents that are asked
the revised race of offender questions. We intend to ask the respondent debriefing
questions ONCE per respondent to minimize respondent burden. Also to avoid
confusion in circumstances where multiple violent crimes are reported by the same
respondent, we recommend only asking the respondent debriefing questions for the
FIRST violent crime captured. With respect to when to ask the respondent and
interviewer debriefing, we think it makes the most sense to ask the respondent and
interviewer debriefing questions immediately after the FIRST violent crime is collected
and before proceeding to any additional crime incident reports or other questions that
need to be collected/asked of that particular respondent. There is a concern about the
impact of asking the debriefing questions before completing all the incident reports.
This issue is still being discussed with the sponsor.\
\
The universe for these two blocks have been changed from a violent crime to a crime
where the respondent knew something about one or more of the offenders.

Ask the interviewer debriefing questions once per respondent when the respondent
reported a violent crime and it is interview number 7. Create and initialize the flag,
interviewerdebrief_doneflg to 0. Once the interviewer has completed the respondent
