Abstract:
|
In the past several decades researchers and practitioners have continued to update sampling strategies for reducing bias and increasing statistical efficiencies. This study investigates the feasibility of employing a single cell phone sampling frame in a national surveillance system for reporting of violence and injury statistics. Research interests are focused on the characteristics of the study population and reporting effects for epidemiological analysis. Victimization of violence and injury based on data collected through a cell and a landline frames are estimated. Results show that, in addition to differences by demographic characteristics, estimates of victimization experience in stalking, psychological, physical, and sexual violence, and injuries differed by frame. Implications of using a single cell frame design for the monitoring of national violence and injury outcomes will be discussed.
