Description International recommendations and standards on the area of violence statistics were viewed during the first stages of developing the questionnaire. The experiences of other countries in conducting such surveys were also reviewed while taking into consideration special Palestinian specificities while applying this survey. The questionnaire was designed with reliance on PCBS’s second experience in conducting a violence survey during the year 2011.
The questionnaire for the 2019 Violence Survey was developed in cooperation with our partners in the National Advisory Committee for the Violence Survey and with the help of several experts. Many observations provided by experienced figures were applied reflecting a purely Palestinian experience. The importance of the survey also stemmed from the urgent need of the local community for the indicators it provides.
Table of contents The questionnaire consisted of eight main sections as follows:

1.Identification data and Quality Control: It was asked to any member of a households aged 18 years or more. This section covered all households members in the sample without exception.

2. Housing Conditions: It was asked to any member of the households aged 18 years or more with the aim of identifying the conditions of the households’s shelter, financial conditions, income, financial needs and spending capabilities.

3. Currently married or ever married women aged (18-64) years: This section was asked to any woman who is currently married or has been married in the past by selecting one woman from the households (should there be several women) through using the Kish Selection Method. Were there to be more than one disabled woman in the households, women with disability completed separate questionnaires and were registered separately. •

4. Children aged (0-11) years: A male or female child was selected from a households holding an even number. Questions concerning this age group were answered by women who are currently married or have been married in the past and who are the mothers or caregivers of those children. This included children with disability.

5. Currently married or ever married men aged (18-64) years: This section was asked to any man who is currently married or has been married in the past by selecting one man from the households (should there be several men) by using the Kish Selection Method.
