National Crime Surveys: Reverse Record Check Studies: Washington, DC, San Jose, and Baltimore, 1970-1971
These surveys were part of a series of pretests conducted
during the early 1970s to reveal problems associated with doing a
nationwide study on victimization. They were done to determine the most
effective reference period to use when questioning respondents in order
to gain the fullest and most reliable information, to measure the
degree to which respondents move incidents occurring outside the
reference period into that period when questioned, and to explore the
possibility of identifying incidents by a few broad general questions
as opposed to a series of more specific probing questions.
