Our previous questionnaires have asked about lifestyle, occupational, and environmental factors that might affect health. In this questionnaire, we will ask you about some very personal experiences that may affect women’s health, including information about your childhood and violence at home. For that reason, you may wish to respond to this questionnaire from a private place. We will treat your responses with the same privacy and security as all the data you have given us. As always, you can skip questions that you do not want to answer. Some of these questions may raise troubling issues. You may wish to call the National Domestic Violence Hotline for assistance: 1-800-799-SAFE
