Needs and Uses: The Independent Review Commission on Sexual Assault in the Military recommended that the Department develop a “state-of-the-art DoD prevention research capability” to better understand and develop prevention approaches for sexual assault and other crimes. This information collection is necessary to understand the impact of the U.S. Army's BLUI, which modernized locks in Army barracks, on sexual and non-sexual crimes and related outcomes. The study focuses on E1-E4 Soldiers living in barracks, assessing the upgrades' effectiveness and related communications on trust in leadership, fear and perceived risk of sexual and non-sexual crimes, and actual victimization/perpetration. This information will help support the development of evidence-based approaches for prevention.
