本文通过比较一方和一对夫妇关于婚姻暴力的数据，讨论了报告偏见对配偶回答敏感婚姻问题的影响。数据是根据全国家庭和住户调查第一波（n = 4 088）的子样本得出的。调查结果显示，对暴力行为的报告严重不足。此外，一些暴力预测因素与配偶一方的低报有很大关系，这种暴力预测因素与低报之间的关系导致基于一方和夫妇暴力评分的预测模型之间存在一些分歧。调查结果还表明，数据收集方法对暴力行为的报告有很大影响。
This article addresses effects of reporting bias on spouses' answers to questions concerning sensitive marital issues by comparing one-partner and couple data on marital violence. Data are based on a subsample of the National Survey of Families and Households, Wave 1 (n = 4,088). The results reveal considerable underreporting of violence. In addition, some predictors of violence are significantly related to underreporting by one spouse, and such relationships between predictors of violence and underreporting result in some divergences between predictor models based on one-partner and couple scores of violence. The findings further indicate that data collection method significantly influences reporting of violence.
