In 2006, we conducted further analyses of the Survey of Violence Victimization in New Mexico data. Specifically, the respondents’ beliefs about personal safety for women today, their own personal safety and which respondents are more likely to carry something to defend themselves were examined. These variables were analyzed by the respondents’ education level, race/ethnicity, and whether or not they have ever been a victim of violence.
