Title: ASSESSMENT OF THE PERCEPTIONS, KNOWLEDGE AND ATTITUDES OF THE CITIZENS OF NEW YORK STATE TOWARD THE MANDATORY SEAT BELT USE LAW
Type of Information Collection: New collection (Request for a new OMB Control Number)	Common Form ICR:  No
Type of Review Request: Regular
OIRA Conclusion Action: Approved without change	Conclusion Date: 09/25/1984
	Date Received in OIRA: 09/21/1984
Terms of Clearance: This proposed survey is approved for use subject to the following conditions: (1) Your proposed questions 3, 3A, and 3B must be moved to the end of the attitude and reported usage section, i.e., just before question 12 on the 1984 survey and just before question 11 on the 1985 survey, and (2) In the 1985 survey, your proposed question 10 must be moved to the front to become the new question 3. It must also be rewritten to read "Since last year, would you say you wear your seat belt more often, less often, or about the same?" The first change is necessary to minimize the likelihood that early questions (such as the proposed 3, 3A, and 3B on accidents) would bias later responses (on seat belts). In the 1985 survey, the new question 3 (your proposed question 10) required rewording because people are more likely to report increased usage if the question refer specifically to the state law.
