Notes: Data are reports of intimate partner violence to local police agencies in the National Incident-Based Reporting System (NIBRS) for the states and years listed in Table 2. Intimate partner is defined as a spouse (including common law and ex-spouse) or a boyfriend/girlfriend. Violence is defined as aggravated assault, simple assault, or intimidation. Alcohol involved indicates the reporting officer noted that either alcohol or drugs were a contributing factor. Minor assault is simple assault or intimidation without injury; serious assault is aggravated assault or any assault with a physical injury. Category fractions for agency size are weighted by the average population in smaller versus larger cities and counties.
