Description

Definition
For women who were randomly selected and interviewed for the domestic violence module and had experienced physical or sexual violence from their husband/partner, DVRINJURY (D110B) indicates whether, because of her husband's/partner's actions, the woman ever suffered some "other" injury not covered by the complementary variable DVRSERINJURY (D110D).

The particular injuries covered by DVRINJURY vary across samples. Please consult the "Comparability" tab for more information.
