Intimate partner violence prevalence estimation using telephone surveys: understanding the effect of nonresponse bias

Department of Epidemiology, School of Public Health, University at Albany, Rensselaer, NY 12144, USA.

To assess the effect of nonresponse bias in telephone prevalence studies of intimate partner violence, the authors asked women visiting a health center in Albany, New York, during 1998 about their willingness to participate in telephone surveys. Women physically victimized by a male partner were more likely than other women to say they would participate in telephone surveys (66.7% vs. 44.4%, p = 0.03). Among women severely victimized, those living with their partner were less willing to participate than those not cohabiting (45.5% vs. 91.7%, p = 0.03). Including questions about willingness to participate in telephone surveys in studies of other kinds may be a useful method of identifying nonresponse bias.
