Physical ADA victimization
Additional physical victimization
Sometimes people are attacked with sticks, rocks, guns, knives, or other things that would hurt. At any time in (your child’s/your) life did anyone hit or attack (your child/you) on purpose with an object or weapon? Somewhere like: at home, at school, at a store, in a car, on the street, or anywhere else?
At any time in (your child’s/your) life, did anyone hit or attack (your child/you) WITHOUT using an object or weapon?
When a person is kidnapped, it means they were made to go somewhere, like into a car, by someone who they thought might hurt them. At any time in (your child’s/your) life, has anyone ever tried to kidnap (your child/you)?
At any time in (your child’s/your) life, (has your child/have you) been hit or attacked because of (your child’s/your) skin color, religion, or where (your child’ s/your) family comes from? Because of a physical problem (your child has/you have)? Or because someone said (your child was/you were) gay?
Sometimes groups of kids or gangs attack people. At any time in (your child’s/your) life, did a group of kids or a gang hit, jump, or attack (your child/you)?
At any time in (your child’s/your) life, did any kids try to hurt (your child’s/your) private parts on purpose by hitting or kicking (your child/you) there?
Sexual victimization
Now think about other kids, like from school, a boyfriend or girlfriend, or even a brother or sister. At any time in your life, did another child or teen make you do sexual things?
At any time in your life, did anyone try to force you to have sex; that is, sexual intercourse of any kind, even if it didn’t happen?
For both types of victimization, youth were asked the follow-up
Who did this?”
If respondent participant answered boyfriend, girlfriend, or ex-boyfriend/girlfriend, they were coded as ADA victims

Sometimes a person may do sexual things to a young person that the young person doesn’t want.
[IF RESPONDENT IS MALE (B3 = 1) SAY: These unwanted sexual things can happen to boys as well as girls and to young men as well as young women.]

[IF RESPONDENT IS MALE (B3 = 1) SAY: girlfriend, ELSE SAY: boyfriend] or dating partner. They can even be a parent or family member. People who try to make young people do unwanted sexual things aren’t always men or boys—they can also be women or girls. I would like you to think about any experiences you have ever had where someone tried to make you do something sexual you didn’t want to do, no matter who did it, how long ago it happened, or whether it was reported to the police or other authorities

Physical assault
Sometimes young people get hit, beat up or physically assaulted by another person. The person who hits, attacks or beats them up isn’t always a stranger, but can be someone they know well, even a family member or friend. The person doing the hitting can be older than the young person, about the same age, or even younger than the young person. Young people tell us they sometimes get hit, attacked or beat up at school, in their neighborhood, or even at home. These types of attacks can even happen to small children sometimes. Many times, young people never tell anyone about these events.
Has anyone— including family members, dating partners, or friends— ever attacked you with a gun, knife or some other weapon, regardless of when it happened or whether you ever reported it to the police?
Has anyone— including family members, dating partners, or friends— ever physically attacked you without a weapon, but you thought they were trying to kill or seriously injure you?
Has anyone—including family members, dating partners, or friends— ever threatened you with a gun or knife, but didn’t actually shoot or cut you?
Has anyone—including family members, dating partners, or friends— ever beat you up, attacked you, or hit you with something like a stick, club, or bottle so hard that you were hurt pretty bad?
Has anyone—including family members, dating partners, or friends— ever beat you up with their fists so hard that you were hurt pretty bad?
Follow-up to sexual and physical assault questions
