• Description:
  The staff of the National Center for Health Statistics’ Collaborating Center for Questionnaire Design and Evaluation Research (CCQDER) conducted a cognitive interview evaluation in support of a redesign of the National Intimate Partner and Sexual Violence Survey (NISVS). NISVS is a periodic survey conducted by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s National Center for Injury Prevention and Control that collects national and sub-national information on intimate partner violence, sexual violence, and stalking victimization. The cognitive interview evaluation is an iterative design with two rounds of testing. Results from the first round are documented in a separate report. After the first round of cognitive interviews, modifications were made to both question wording and section ordering. The modifications were then evaluated in a second round of testing. This report documents findings from the second round of cognitive interviews, which includes select questions from three sections of the NISVS survey: stalking, sexual assault, and attempted sexual assault. Emphasis is given to sections or questions that continued to be problematic in terms of response error and silent misunderstandings.
