These findings pubished in MMWR Surveillance Summaries are based on data from the National Intimate Partner and Sexual Violence Survey (NISVS).
This report examines sexual violence, stalking, and intimate partner violence victimization using data from the 2011 survey. The report describes the overall prevalence of sexual violence, stalking, and intimate partner violence victimization; racial/ethnic variation in prevalence; how types of perpetrators vary by violence type; and the age at which victimization typically begins. For intimate partner violence, the report also examines a range of negative impacts experienced as a result of victimization, including the need for services.
This is the initial report on 2011 survey data. The website link provides access to a range of publications, including Infographics, related to the more detailed analysis of the 2010 survey findings (as at December 2014).
NISVS is an ongoing, nationally representative, random digit dial telephone survey that collects information about experiences of intimate partner violence, sexual violence, and stalking from non-institutionalized English- and/or Spanish-speaking women and men aged 18 or older in the United States.
