The National Intimate Partner and Sexual Violence Survey is an ongoing, nationally representative survey of non-institutionalized adult men and women aged 18 years or older in the United States assessing lifetime experiences to assess experiences of intimate partner violence, sexual violence and stalking among adults in the US. It measures lifetime victimization for these types of violence as well as in the previous 12 months. The Revision requests a continuation of data collection for the period March 2018 to March 2019. During 2018 collection will not include the DoD-sponsored component that focused on active duty military respondents, thus the sample size is smaller and questions designed specifically for this subpopulation will be dropped. Small revisions have been made to the questionnaire to improve information quality. In addition a series of small changes are proposed for the recruitment protocol in an effort to increase response rates.
