National Crime Surveys: Redesign Data: Peoria Record Check Study
The purpose of this study was to measure criminal activity
in the United States based on survey reports of crime victims. In the
study two different questionnaire forms were used in order to assess
which provided better responses. One form was very lengthy and asked
detailed questions about each household, person, and incident. The
second form was much shorter and asked very generalized questions. The
data collection was an attempt to find alternative methods of sampling,
interviewing, designing questionnaires, managing data, and reporting
results. Detailed information is provided on household characteristics
and other characteristics of the respondents, as well as on crime
incidents, including burglary, vandalism, assault, and rape.
