This study will examine the effect of
the presence, language, and prominence of a disclosure
communicating information related to a prescription drug’s
accelerated approval in direct-to-consumer promotional materials.
We plan to conduct one pretest (N = 385) and one main study (N =
633) not longer than 20 minutes, administered via Internet panel.
We will vary the presence and prominence of the disclosure (e.g.,
varying the presence, size, color, and location of the disclosure)
on a website for a fictitious prescription drug. Participants will
view the website and then answer questions about the drug
information, including the disclosure.
On behalf of this Federal agency, I certify that
the collection of information encompassed by this request complies
