Introduction

Hello, my name is INTERVIEWER NAME. I work for Westat, a research company in Rockville, Maryland. Thank you for taking the time to be a part of this study.


Westat is working with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, or FDA, to see what people think about some health information they are creating. The FDA is interested in getting opinions about the information I am about to discuss with you. You should have gotten a package in the mail for this study.



Do you have the package we mailed to you with you right now?


IF YES, CONTINUE

IF NO BUT PACKAGE IS NEARBY, ALLOW PARTICIPANT TIME TO GET IT

IF NO AND NOT NEARBY, CONTINUE USING ON-SCREEN VERSION OR ASK IF IT’S OKAY TO EMAIL THE DOCUMENT TO R


Please wait to open the packet until I tell you it is time to start. I will then ask you to open specific envelopes one at a time. After you look at the materials inside, I will ask you some questions about your thoughts and feelings about the information. Any ideas you have are okay.



Informed Consent

Before we get started, there are a few things I need to tell you. This is a research project, and this interview is voluntary. That means that if you do not want to answer a specific question just tell me and I’ll go to the next one. It is okay if you want to stop after we start. Just let me know.

All of your answers and everything you say will be kept secure to the extent permitted by law. This means that we will not share your name or information. Also, we will not link any information to your answers to figure out who you are. The interview will take about 30 minutes and you will get $35 e-rewards for your time. We would like to record this conversation if you are okay with that. The recording helps us make sure we hear everything you say correctly. Only the people who work on this research project will be able to listen to the recording and see our notes. Your name will not be linked to any of your responses, though we may include quotes that you provide in our reports. The recordings and our notes will be destroyed after we finish the project.

IF FDA STAFF ARE ON THE PHONE: I also want you to know that a couple other people who work on this research project are listening to this interview to take notes as we talk.

Before we start, do you have any questions? Do you agree to be interviewed? Is it okay with you if I record the interview?

TURN ON RECORDER. The date and time is ____________. Now that I am recording, I want to ask again, is it okay if I record this interview?




Background Questions

Before we talk about the information I mailed to you, I have a few questions.


IF R IS A CURRENT SMOKER: You told us when you volunteered for this interview that you smoke cigarettes. Is that correct?

IF R LIVES WITH A SMOKER: You told us when you volunteered for this interview that you live with a person who smokes cigarettes. Is that correct?


Today we’ll be looking at some material related to nicotine in cigarettes. Have you heard of nicotine before?

IF YES: What do you know about nicotine?


Do you think people are addicted to nicotine specifically or do they think they are addicted to cigarettes more generally? Why?



Now please open the envelope we sent you in the mail labeled Dialogue. Do you see a piece of paper titled Nicotine. Please take a minute to look at it now. Please do not look at the other envelopes in the package just yet. When you are done, I have some questions for you about what’s on the paper.

CHECK IN AFTER 1 MINUTES. ALLOW 2-3 MORE MINUTES IF NEEDED.

Thank you for looking at the logo and tagline (the words underneath/next to it). Now I’m going to ask you some questions about it.

First, just tell me your overall thoughts about the logo and tagline (“discover the facts,” “take a fresh look,” “leave cigarettes behind,” or “break through the myths”).

  • How well does this logo and tagline support the main message of the text I showed you? Why?

  • Is there anything unclear or confusing about the logo or tagline?


Now that you see the logo and tagline with the text, who do you think this message is for?

  • Do you feel like it’s for you? Why or why not?

Of the four options, which one fits the best with the main message of the text I showed you? Why?


Each of these four logos is paired with its own tagline. If you could mix and match the logos and taglines, would you still say option # fits best with the main message of the paragraph, or would you say a different combination would be better? If so, which one? Why?

Closing and Incentive

IF OBSERVERS ARE PRESENT, CHECK TO SEE IF THEY HAVE FURTHER QUESTIONS.

Those are all the questions I have for you. Is there anything we haven't talked about that you would like to tell me?
