American Serial Killer Statistics By Race
The National Crime Victimization Survey (NCVS) collects information on victimization characteristics, including race and ethnicity. Since 2003, two questions on the NCVS obtain information on the respondent's race and Hispanic origin: (1) whether the respondent is of Hispanic origin, and (2) which race or races they identify with. Respondents may choose white; black or African American; American Indian or Alaska Native; Asian, Native Hawaiian, or other Pacific Islander; or other race.
Serial Killer Facts And Statistics
Respondents who select other race are asked to specify their race. More than one race may be selected.Prior to 2003, respondents to the NCVS were asked to identify the racial group they identified with, including white; black; American Indian, Aleut, or Eskimo; Asian or Pacific Islander; or other race. Respondents who selected other race were not able to specify a race for the NCVS. They were also not able to select more than one racial group. After respondents were asked the question on race, they were asked if they were of their Hispanic origin or ethnicity. Caution is warranted when examining race over time because the racial categories were changed in the 2003 NCVS.Most reports present findings on race and ethnicity separately.
