The National Intimate Partner and Sexual Violence Survey (NISVS) is an ongoing nationally representative survey that assessed experiences of sexual violence, stalking, and intimate partner violence among adult women and men in the United States and for each individual state. The survey focused exclusively on violence and collected information about: Sexual violence by any perpetrator, including information related to rape, being made to penetrate someone else, sexual coercion, unwanted sexual contact, and non-contact unwanted sexual experiences Stalking, including the use of newer technologies such as text messages, emails, monitoring devices (e.g., cameras and GPS, or global positioning system devices), by perpetrators known and unknown to the victim Physical violence by an intimate partner Psychological aggression by an intimate partner, including information on expressive forms of aggression and coercive control Control of reproductive or sexual health by an intimate partner The NISVS project and data collection was overseen by the Centers for Disease and Prevention (CDC). The overall cost of the NISVS project was shared between the CDC, the Department of Defense (DoD) and the National Institute of Justice (NIJ).

The National Survey of Teen Relationships and Intimate Violence (STRiV) examines the changing nature of adolescent dating relationships, particularly those marked by adolescent relationship abuse (ARA). More specifically, this study was designed to produce nationally representative estimates of the prevalence of multiple forms of ARA among youth (ages 10-18), to document the characteristics of abusive relationships during adolescence, to assess ARA risk factors, and to situate these estimates within the environment of adolescents' key social relationships and communications. STRiV includes individual data from a nationally representative sample of households with at least one resident youth. Baseline and follow-up surveys were completed using a secure web survey with toll-free telephone and online help available.

This study sought to: Identify the prevalence of intimate partner violence, stalking and sexual violence among non-college-attending emerging adults. Explore the use of formal and informal help seeking and formal services among these victims. The analysis in this study focused on non-college-attending emerging adults, with particular concern for the effect of their positive and negative encounters with sources of support - both in their immediate needs as well as future decisions to utilize victim services. This project also compared male and female victims because of variations in their respective use of services. To address these research concerns, this project utilizes the data in the 2010 National Intimate Partner and Sexual Violence Survey (ICPSR #36140). There are no data files available with this study. Only syntax files used by the researchers are provided.

The primary research aims of this study were to: examine a theoretical mediational risk model, examine long-term intervention impacts of the LIFT program on IPV in young adulthood, and to examine proximal associations between youth, partner adjustment (e.g., depressive symptoms), and adulthood. Data was collected over a 15-year period through interview format. Secondary analyses was performed with 323 adults (184 women, 139 men; average age 21 years) and their romantic partners (146 women, 177 men; average age 22 years) who participated in the community-based Linking the Interests of Families and Teachers (LIFT). Overall the study contains one SPSS file called 'NIJArc_LIFTCO_SubUseIPVItems.sav'. This SPSS file includes 166 variables and 316 cases.
