Abstract:
In Fall 2000, the Justice Center received funding from the Bureau of Justice
Statistics (BJS) to administer a local version of the National Crime Victimization
Survey (NCVS) to a sample of residents in Anchorage, Alaska. However, problems
associated with the Crime Victimization Survey software provided by BJS
resulted in the recording of inaccurate data, incorrect dates, and incomplete
responses. In addition, the software was not easily modified and exported
data was often incomplete and/or difficult to analyze. Due to these limitations,
the Justice Center submitted a revised proposal outlineing a project designed
to overcome the limitation of the Crime Victimization Survey software. This
report describes the process of developing and and testing a criminal victimization
survey using a commercially available computer-assisted telephone interviewing
(CATI) sortware program.
