General Social Survey cycle 13. Overview: personal safety and perceptions
of policing
Abstract
This report presents a brief overview of the information collected in Cycle
13 of the General Social Survey (GSS). Cycle 13 is the third cycle (following
cycles 3 and 8) that collected information in 1999 on the nature and extent
of criminal victimisation in Canada. Focus content for cycle 13 addressed two
areas of emerging interest: public perception toward alternatives to imprisonment;
and spousal violence and senior abuse. Other subjects common to all three cycles
include perceptions of crime, police and courts; crime prevention precautions;
accident and crime screening sections; and accident and crime incident reports.
The target population of the GSS is all individuals aged 15 and over living
in a private household in one of the ten provinces
