In September 2021, OMB approved remote administration of the NSCAW III follow-up interviews (Wave 2). Data collection began in December 2021. Caregivers, youth ages 11 and older, and caseworkers are being interviewed remotely by telephone and web.
Currently, caregivers and youth ages 16 and older are asked to provide their address, telephone numbers, email address, and Social Security Number for locating purposes. They are also asked to provide names and contact information for up to two friends and relatives. These data are collected in the interviewer-administered telephone portion of the remote Wave 2 surveys.
The purpose of the current request is to obtain approval to add four questions to the remote Wave 2 interviews for caregivers and youth ages 13 and older. The purpose of these additions is to gather information from caregivers and youth ages 13 and older about whether they use particular social media platforms (e.g., Facebook, Instagram, Snapchat, TikTok), and if applicable, their user/profile names on those platforms. This information is intended to support panel retention and increase the likelihood of locating respondents over time. Social media services like Facebook, Instagram, Snapchat, and TikTok place an age restriction of 13 on their services.
US Code:
42 USC 626b
Name of Law: Continuing Appropriations Act of 2020
Timing data collected during NSCAW III indicates that the average administration times for baseline and follow-up child interviews take longer than the initial 80-minute estimate and instead take 105 and 90 minutes, respectively. This is largely due to higher administration times among adolescents in comparison to younger children. The team examined the protocols to ensure that only necessary information is included.
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).
