| description |
This paper analyzes the incidence and
extent to which domestic violence and physical harassment on
public/private buses is underreported in Kerala, India,
using the list randomization technique. The results indicate
that the level of underreporting is over nine percentage
points for domestic violence and negligible for physical
harassment on public/private buses. Urban households,
especially poor urban households, tend to have higher levels
of incidence of domestic violence. Further, women and those
who are professionally educated tend to underreport more
than others. Underreporting is also higher among the
youngest and oldest age cohorts. For physical harassment on
public/private buses, rural population -- especially the
rural non --poor and urban females—tend to underreport
compared with the rural poor and urban males. |
