For this study we are recruiting a mix of young women between the ages of 15 and 25 with different backgrounds and a range of experience.

The CDC is conducting focus groups to help prepare information for 15–17 year-old girls about measures they can take now to protect their health and prevent infertility in the future. The purpose of this study is to help CDC develop materials like posters and public service announcements towards this purpose. The focus groups will ask teens to give their opinions on how information is presented and whether it is easy to understand. The groups will be held at 5:30 p.m. or 7:30 p.m. on [Date] in [City] and will last about 2 hours. Refreshments will be served and all teens who participate will receive $75 when the group ends. These questions will only take a few moments to answer. Do you have time now to answer a few questions?


  1. Would you allow your daughter to participate in a maximum 2 hour focus group discussion with up to 8 other young women and a researcher on behalf of the CDC?

I will need to ask your teen a few questions before scheduling her to ensure that the CDC has a wide range of teens represented. But first, I would like to ask you a few questions.

Recruit half above $45,000 and half below $45,000.

( ) Yes Continue

( ) No Continue

Recruit “Yes” for Group A.

Recruit “No” for Group B.


  1. At this point, I would like to confirm that you give permission for your teen to participate in this research.



[Read “Parental Permission Form” and complete “Parental Permission”, then ask Q7.]


  1. I will need to speak privately with your teen in order to ask her a few questions to determine whether she is eligible to participate in the focus group. If she is eligible, I will then schedule a time for her interview. Is your 15­–17 year-old daughter available now for me to ask a few questions?

( ) Yes

[If Yes] May I speak with her now? Go to “Minor Screener”

( ) No

[If No] When would be a good time (or better phone number) for me to call back and speak with your daughter?
