Terms of Clearance:
The FBI recognizes the importance of response rates and population coverage for the ability of the National UoF Data Collection to generate valid national estimates of the UoF by police officers. After consultation with OMB, FBI agrees to the following terms of clearance describing the quality standards which will apply to the dissemination of the results. For the purpose of these conditions, “coverage rate” refers to the total law enforcement officer population covered by UoF. In addition, “coverage rate” will be considered on both a state-by-state basis, as well as a national scale. “Key variables” include subject injuries received and type of force used. Item non-response refers to the percent of respondents that either do not answer the question associated with a key variable or answer “unknown and unlikely to ever be known.” For the first year of collection, 1) If the coverage rate is 80 percent or greater and the item non-response is 30 percent or less, then no conditions apply to the dissemination of the results. 2) If the coverage rate is between 60 percent and 80 percent or the item non-response is greater than 30 percent, then the FBI will not release counts or totals, but may release ratios or percentages. 3) If the coverage rate is between 40 percent and 60 percent, then the FBI may release only the response percentages for the key variables across the entire population and for subpopulations which represent 20 percent or more of the total population. 4) If the coverage rate is less than 40 percent, the FBI will not disseminate results. In subsequent years, if any combination of conditions three and four are met for three consecutive years, or if condition four is met for two consecutive years, then the FBI will discontinue the collection and explore alternate approaches for collecting the information, for example by working cooperatively with the BJS to expand their current efforts to collect information on deaths in custody, to include law enforcement.
