BJS-funded third-party report:?"National Crime Victimization Survey: Validation of State-Level Estimates [ [link removed] ]" *

This report describes an assessment of the redesigned National Crime Victimization Survey (NCVS) sample design to (1) identify potential sources of error that may compromise the validity of state-level estimates and (2) evaluate how NCVS estimates compare with and augment estimates from the Federal Bureau of Investigation?s Uniform Crime Reporting (UCR) Program. This validation concluded that no issues were identified regarding the validity of state-level victimization estimates produced through the 2016 NCVS sample design. Additionally, the validation results will inform BJS?s ongoing subnational estimation work.
