previously approved for the 2013–2014
survey. Minor changes to survey content
will be made to eliminate unnecessary
questions, add new questions of
interest, and improve formatting,
usability, and data quality. As in 2013–
2014, different versions of the survey
instrument will be administered to
providers and clinic administrators. The
estimated burden per response for
providers is 15 minutes and has not
changed since the previous OMB
approval. The estimated burden per
response for administrators will be
reduced from 40 minutes to 25 minutes.
Private-sector physicians will be
randomly selected from sampling
frames with individual-level
information on physicians. To reach
public-sector providers and clinic
administrators, publicly funded clinics
will be randomly selected; one provider

and the clinic administrator will be
asked to complete surveys at sampled
clinics. Specifically, surveys will be
completed by: (a) 2,000 private-sector
office-based physicians (i.e., those
specializing in obstetrics/gynecology,
family medicine, and adolescent
medicine), sampled from the American
Medical Association Physician
Masterfile; (b) 2,000 providers from
Title X clinics, sampled from a database
of publicly funded family planning
clinics; (c) 2,000 providers from nonTitle X clinics, sampled from a database
of publicly funded family planning
clinics; (d) 2,000 clinic administrators
from Title X clinics, sampled from a
database of publicly funded family
planning clinics; and (e) 2,000 clinic
administrators from non-Title X clinics,
sampled from a database of publicly
funded family planning clinics.

Each sampled provider and clinic will
receive a mailed survey package. For
private-sector family planning
providers, each mailed survey package
will include a single survey to be
completed by the provider. For publicsector clinics, each mailed survey
package will include two surveys—one
to be completed by a randomly selected
family planning provider at the clinic,
and the second to be completed by the
clinic administrator. Each mailed survey
will be accompanied by a postage-paid
return envelope. Individuals will also be
given the option to complete the survey
online via a password protected webbased data collection system.
OMB approval is requested for one
year. Participation is voluntary and
there are no costs to respondents other
than their time.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:

Under the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (PRA)
(44 U.S.C. 3501–3520), Federal agencies
must obtain approval from the Office of
Management and Budget (OMB) for each
collection of information they conduct
or sponsor. In addition, the PRA also
requires Federal agencies to provide a
60-day notice in the Federal Register
concerning each proposed collection of
information, including each new
proposed collection, each proposed
extension of existing collection of
information, and each reinstatement of
previously approved information
collection before submitting the
collection to OMB for approval. To
comply with this requirement, we are
publishing this notice of a proposed
data collection as described below.
Comments are invited on: (a) Whether
the proposed collection of information
is necessary for the proper performance
of the functions of the agency, including
whether the information shall have
practical utility; (b) the accuracy of the
agency’s estimate of the burden of the
proposed collection of information; (c)
ways to enhance the quality, utility, and
clarity of the information to be
collected; (d) ways to minimize the
burden of the collection of information
on respondents, including through the
use of automated collection techniques
or other forms of information
technology; and (e) estimates of capital
or start-up costs and costs of operation,
maintenance, and purchase of services
to provide information. Burden means
the total time, effort, or financial
resources expended by persons to
generate, maintain, retain, disclose or
provide information to or for a Federal
agency. This includes the time needed
to review instructions; to develop,
acquire, install and utilize technology
and systems for the purpose of
collecting, validating and verifying
information, processing and
maintaining information, and disclosing
and providing information; to train
personnel and to be able to respond to
a collection of information, to search
data sources, to complete and review
the collection of information; and to
transmit or otherwise disclose the
information.

Proposed Project
Generic Clearance for CDC/ATSDR
Formative Research and Tool
Development (CDC)
Background and Brief Description
The Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention (CDC) requests approval for
a new generic clearance for CDC/ATSDR
Formative Research and Tool
Development. This information
collection request is designed to allow
CDC to conduct formative research
information collection activities used to
inform many aspects of surveillance,
communications, health promotion, and
research project development at CDC.
Formative research is the basis for
developing effective strategies including
communication channels, for
influencing behavior change. It helps
researchers identify and understand the
characteristics—interests, behaviors and
needs—of target populations that
influence their decisions and actions.
Formative research is integral in
developing programs as well as
improving existing and ongoing
programs. Formative research looks at
the community in which a public health
intervention is being or will be
implemented and helps the project staff
understand the interests, attributes and
needs of different populations and
persons in that community. Formative
research occurs before a program is
designed and implemented, or while a
program is being conducted.
At CDC formative research is
necessary for developing new programs
or adapting programs that deal with the
complexity of behaviors, social context,
cultural identities, and health care that
underlie the epidemiology of diseases
and conditions in the U.S. CDC
conducts formative research to develop
public-sensitive communication
messages and user friendly tools prior to
developing or recommending
interventions, or care. Sometimes these
studies are entirely behavioral but most
often they are cycles of interviews and
focus groups designed to inform the
development of a product.
Products from these formative
research studies will be used for
prevention of disease. Findings from
these studies may also be presented as
evidence to disease-specific National
Advisory Committees, to support
revisions to recommended prevention
and intervention methods, as well as
new recommendations.
Much of CDC’s health communication
takes place within campaigns that have
fairly lengthy planning periods—
timeframes that accommodate the
standard Federal process for approving

data collections. Short term qualitative
interviewing and cognitive research
techniques have previously proven
invaluable in the development of
scientifically valid and populationappropriate methods, interventions, and
instruments.
This request includes studies
investigating the utility and
acceptability of proposed sampling and
recruitment methods, intervention
contents and delivery, questionnaire
domains, individual questions, and
interactions with project staff or
electronic data collection equipment.
These activities will also provide
information about how respondents
answer questions and ways in which
question response bias and error can be
reduced.
This request also includes collection
of information from public health
programs to assess needs related to
initiation of a new program activity or
expansion or changes in scope or
implementation of existing program
activities to adapt them to current
needs. The information collected will be
used to advise programs and provide
capacity-building assistance tailored to
identify needs.
Overall, these development activities
are intended to provide information that
will increase the success of the
surveillance or research projects
through increasing response rates and
decreasing response error, thereby
decreasing future data collection burden
to the public. The studies that will be
covered under this request will include
one or more of the following
investigational modalities: (1)
Structured and qualitative interviewing
for surveillance, research, interventions
and material development, (2) cognitive
interviewing for development of specific
data collection instruments, (3)
methodological research (4) usability
testing of technology-based instruments
and materials, (5) field testing of new
methodologies and materials, (6)
investigation of mental models for
health decision-making, to inform
health communication messages, and (7)
organizational needs assessments to
support development of capacity.
Respondents who will participate in
individual and group interviews
(qualitative, cognitive, and computer
assisted development activities) are
selected purposively from those who
respond to recruitment advertisements.
In addition to utilizing advertisements
for recruitment, respondents who will
participate in research on survey
methods may be selected purposively or
systematically from within an ongoing
surveillance or research project.
