Proposed Project
National Intimate Partner and Sexual
Violence Surveillance System (0920–
0822, Expiration 06/30/2014)—
Revision—National Center for Injury
Prevention and Control (NCIPC),
Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention (CDC).
Background and Brief Description
The health burden of Intimate Partner
Violence (IPV), Sexual Violence (SV)
and stalking are substantial. In order to
address this important public health
problem, CDC implemented, beginning
in 2010, the National Intimate Partner
and Sexual Violence Surveillance
System (NISVSS) that produces national
and state level estimates of IPV, SV and
Stalking on an annual basis.
In 2010, a total of 16,507 NISVSS
interviews were conducted among
English and/or Spanish speaking male
and female adults (18 years and older)

living in the United States. The data
indicated that nearly 1 in 3 women and
1 in 10 men in the United States have
experienced rape, physical violence
and/or stalking by an intimate partner
and reported at least one impact related
to experiencing these or other forms of
violent behavior within the relationship
(e.g., being fearful, concerned for safety,
post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD)
symptoms, need for health care, injury,
contacting a crisis hotline, need for
housing services, need for victim’s
advocate services, need for legal
services, missed at least one day of work
or school). Approximately 6.9 million
women and 5.6 million men
experienced rape, physical violence
and/or stalking by an intimate partner
within the last year. The health care
costs associated with IPV exceed $5.8
billion each year, of which nearly $3.9
billion is for direct medical and mental
health care services.
Sexual violence also has a profound
and long-term impact on the physical
and mental health of the victim.
Existing estimates of lifetime
experiences of rape range from 15% to
36% for females. Sexual violence
against men, although less prevalent, is
also a public health problem;
approximately, 1 in 5 women and 1 in
71 men have experienced attempted,
completed, or alcohol or drug facilitated
rape at some point in their lifetime.
Nearly 1.3 million women reported
being raped in the past 12 months.
The NISVSS data indicates that
approximately 5 million women and 1.4
million men in the United States were
stalked in the 12 months prior to the
survey. There are overlaps between
stalking and other forms of violence in
intimate relationships; approximately
14% of females who were stalked by an
intimate partner in their lifetime also
experienced physical violence by an
intimate partner; while 12% of female
victims experienced rape, physical
violence and stalking by a current or
former intimate partner in their lifetime.
Furthermore, 76% of female victims of
intimate partner homicides were stalked
by their partners before they were
killed.
CDC requests Office of Management
and Budget (OMB) approval for a
Revision and an additional three years
to implement the previously approved
pilot tested instrument of 2013 in the
normal data collection cycle in order to
collect national level data annually
beginning in 2014. The NISVSS survey
instrument had been shortened in
efforts to develop a core instrument that
will be administered on an annual basis.
The goals of the revised data collection
instrument are to: (1) Improve NISVSS

rates, (3) decrease the breakoff rates, (4)
reduce the average amount of time it
takes to complete the survey, (5) and
ultimately reduce the burden on the
respondent.
surveyed respondent is 25 minutes. The
survey will be conducted among English
or Spanish speaking male and female
adults (18 years and older) living in the
United States.
There are no costs to respondents
other than their time.
In this data collection period, 85,000
households will be screened. After
determining eligibility and consent,
12,500 respondents will complete the
survey. The average burden per
screened respondent remains at 3
