Abstract: 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. This revision request describes the planned testing of a redesign of the National Intimate Partner and Sexual Violence Survey (NISVS) and the approach for collecting NISVS data using multiple data collection modes and sampling strategies. This revision request details 1) feasibility testing of the revised survey instruments, data collection modes, and incentive structures, and 2) pilot testing of the new design.
