Note: In 2003 racial categories were changed so caution is warranted when examining racial categories over time. See Additional Information about the Data for a discussion of racial categories. Nonfatal intimate partner victimization rates of black males are not provided annually because the small number of cases is insufficient for reliable estimates. Nonfatal intimate partner victimization for males and females of other racial groups are provided as average annual estimates because the small number of cases was insufficient for reliable estimates.
