ENHANCING THE QUALITY OF SURVEY DATA ON VIOLENCE AGAINST WOMEN:

A Feminist Approach

MICHAEL D. SMITH

York University, North York, Ontario

A major methodological problem in victimization surveys on physical and sexual violence against women is the underreporting of violence. The first part of this article makes a case for 6 feminist strategies for improving the accuracy of self-report data on victimization within a mainstream survey research framework. The second part of the article is a presentation of data from a survey of Toronto women that is designed to show the efficacy of these feminist strategies.
