Abstract

[The ISRD has two distinguishing features as a comparative study of youth crime and victimization: (1) the large number and cultural diversity of participating countries and (2) the explicitly comparative design. This chapter provides an overview of the core data features of the ISRD, including listing of participating countries, sample size, responses rates, and administration type (paper and pencil or online). The chapter further explains sampling procedures used, weighting, questionnaire content, and construction. The chapter concludes with a caution that some of the national differences in results may reflect methodological differences, rather than substantive differences in prevalence and incidence of offending and victimization.]
