• Description:
  The National Intimate Partner and Sexual Violence Survey (NISVS) is an ongoing, nationally representative telephone survey that collects detailed information on intimate partner violence (IPV), sexual violence, and stalking victimization of adult women and men aged 18 years and older in the United States. NISVS measures victimization occurring in both the lifetime and 12 months before taking the survey. CDC developed NISVS to better describe and monitor the magnitude of these forms of violence in the United States.
  
  Intimate partner violence is a major public health problem affecting millions of people in the United States each year. A recent report from the NISVS found that 36.4% of women and 33.6% of men experienced contact sexual violence, physical violence, and/or stalking by an intimate partner during their lifetimes (Smith et al., 2018). IPV has been linked to serious long-term physical and mental health consequences, and has an estimated lifetime economic burden of $3.6 trillion (e.g., Breiding, Black, & Ryan, 2008; Logan & Cole, 2007; Peterson et al., 2018).
  
  The primary purpose of this report is to provide a comprehensive examination of the impact of IPV as a supplement to The National Intimate Partner and Sexual Violence Survey (NISVS): 2015 Data Brief – Updated Release (Smith et al., 2018). The findings in this report offer additional information about specific IPV-related impacts, describing the wide range of experiences associated with IPV victimization. Data tables are presented at the end of this report.
