Other studies using the NCVS have examined factors associated with law enforcement's response to cases of domestic violence.
Examination of the most recent trends for the NCVS from 1993 through 2001 reveals that, although the national crime rate has decreased substantially during this time period, the rate of rape and sexual assault has remained relatively unchanged (Rennison, 2001; 2002).
In Evaluating Gun Policy: Effects on Crime and Violence (2003), Cook and Ludwig consider in-home incidents of armed self-defense, suggesting a range of 32,000 (based on an NCVS analysis by Cook) to 503,000 (based on a DataStat telephone survey commissioned by the federal government).
