This is a request for OMB to approve a
revision for this generic submission for three years. As part of
NCI’s mandate from Congress to disseminate information on cancer
research, detection, prevention, and treatment, the Institute
develops a wide variety of messages and materials. Testing these
messages and materials assesses their potential effectiveness in
reaching and communicating with their intended audience while they
are still in the developmental stage and can be revised.
US Code:

USC 285a-2 Name of Law: Public Health Service Act
This information collection
request is a revision, due to an increase in the incentives to the
respondents, the proposed incentive amount for Physicians has been
increased by $50.00, and for Individuals (General Public) by
$25.00, a reduction in the number of respondents from 18,000 per
year to 9,000 per year, and the Average Time Per Response (in
hours) from 12 minutes to 45 minutes, which will increase our
Burden Hours from 7,200 to 13,500. As discussed in A.9, the
proposed incentive amount increases for Physicians and for
Individuals (General Public) will ensure that NCI can attract
hard-to-recruit populations to improve response rates, data
quality, and motivate respondents to participate.
On behalf of this Federal agency, I certify that
the collection of information encompassed by this request complies
with 5 CFR 1320.9 and the related provisions of 5 CFR
1320.8(b)(3).
The following is a summary of the topics, regarding
the proposed collection of information, that the certification
covers:
(i) Why the information is being collected;
(ii) Use of information;
(iii) Burden estimate;
(iv) Nature of response (voluntary, required for a
benefit, or mandatory);
(v) Nature and extent of confidentiality; and
(vi) Need to display currently valid OMB control
number;
