Agency Forms Undergoing Paperwork Reduction Act Review
In accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, the Centers
for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has submitted the information
collection request titled ``The National Intimate Partner and Sexual
Violence Survey (NISVS)'' to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB)
for review and approval. CDC previously published a ``Proposed Data
Collection Submitted for Public Comment and Recommendations'' notice on
March 7, 2022, to obtain comments from the public and affected
agencies. CDC received one comment related to the previous notice. This
notice serves to allow an additional 30 days for public and affected
agency comments.
CDC will accept all comments for this proposed information
collection project. The Office of Management and Budget is particularly
interested in comments that:
(a) Evaluate whether the proposed collection of information is
necessary for the proper performance of the functions of the agency,
including whether the information will have practical utility;
(b) Evaluate the accuracy of the agencies estimate of the burden of
the proposed collection of information, including the validity of the
methodology and assumptions used;
(c) Enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to
be collected;
(d) Minimize the burden of the collection of information on those
who are to respond, including, through the use of appropriate
automated, electronic, mechanical, or other technological collection
techniques or other forms of information technology, e.g., permitting
electronic submission of responses; and
(e) Assess information collection costs.
To request additional information on the proposed project or to
obtain a copy of the information collection plan and instruments, call
(404) 639-7570. Comments and recommendations for the proposed
information collection should be sent within 30 days of publication of
this notice to <a href="http://www.reginfo.gov/public/do/PRAMain">www.reginfo.gov/public/do/PRAMain</a>. Find this particular
information collection by selecting ``Currently under 30-day Review--
Open for Public Comments'' or by using the search function. Direct
written comments and/or suggestions regarding the items contained in
this notice to the Attention: CDC Desk Officer, Office of Management
and Budget, 725 17th Street NW, Washington, DC 20503 or by fax to (202)
395-5806. Provide written comments within 30 days of notice
publication.
Proposed Project
The National Intimate Partner and Sexual Violence Survey (NISVS)
(OMB Control No. 0920-0822, Exp. 03/31/2023)--Revision--National Center
for Injury Prevention and Control (NCIPC), Centers for Disease Control
and Prevention (CDC).
Background and Brief Description
This is a revision request for the currently approved National
Intimate Partner and Sexual Violence Survey (NISVS, OMB# 0920-0822).
Sexual violence, intimate partner violence, and stalking are
significant public health issues that impact the health and well-being
of women and men across the United States. An extensive field of
research has demonstrated that sexual violence, intimate partner
violence, and stalking can have serious long-term health consequences
and significant social and public health costs. Sexual violence is a
major public health problem; 1 in 3 women and 1 in 4 men experienced
sexual violence involving physical contact during their lifetimes.
Nearly 1 in 5 women and 1 in 38 men have experienced completed or
attempted rape. Sexual violence starts early; 1 in 3 female and 1 in 4
male rape victims experienced it for the first time between 11-17 years
old.
In 2010, the National Intimate Partner and Sexual Violence
Surveillance System (NISVS) reported that approximately 6.9 million
women and 5.6 million men experienced rape, physical violence and/or
stalking by an intimate partner within the last year. The health care
costs of sexual violence exceed $5.8 billion each year, nearly $3.9
billion of which is for direct medical and mental health care services.
To address this important public health problem, CDC implemented,
beginning in 2010, the National Intimate Partner and Sexual Violence
Surveillance System that produces national and state level estimates of
Intimate Partner Violence, Sexual Violence and stalking on an annual
basis.
This Revision request describes the redesign of the NISVS and the
approach for collecting NISVS data. More specifically, this Revision
request is to use the restructured methodology based on recommendations
resulting from experimental studies conducted in 2018-2021 and approved
by OMB 6/19/2019, 3/20/2020, and 9/2/2021. This Revision request
incorporates methodological design changes to improve response rate,
reduce cost, and reduce non-response bias. Additionally, survey
questions and their formatting were revised to improve clarity and
reduce respondent burden or to update content with more recent concerns
(e.g., stalking technology, technology-facilitated sexual violence).
The survey question revisions were modified by results from cognitive
testing conducted in 2021-2022. Data are analyzed using appropriate
statistical software to account for the complexity of the survey design
to compute weighted counts, percentages, and confidence intervals using
national and state-level data.
NISVS is a surveillance system used to monitor the magnitude of
sexual violence, stalking, and Intimate Partner Violence victimization
among adults in the U.S. Data are used by the federal government,
states, partner organizations, and stakeholders to inform prevention
programs and policies related to sexual violence, stalking, and
Intimate Partner Violence. OMB approval is requested for three years.
The total estimated annualized burden hours are 17,949. There are no
costs to respondents other than their time to participate.
