The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is requesting extension of approval of a generic for collecting information through the use of quantitative methods for studies about tobacco products. FDA will need to employ quantitative research, including surveys and experimental studies to assess knowledge and perceptions about tobacco-related topics with specific target audiences. FDA will only submit an individual generic collection for approval under this generic clearance if the individual collection meets the outlined conditions.

Our estimated burden for the information collection reflects an overall increase of 96,269 hours and a corresponding increase of 1,106,692 responses. We attribute this adjustment to the number of study responses used during the current approval and now estimated for the next 3 years. A greater number of quantitative studies will be conducted over the next 3 years due to the need to develop new creative messages and content. Recent years have seen a dramatic change in media. With the shift to digital media, FDA must adapt to communicate effectively in a digital environment. As digital tobacco use prevention/interventions are still in their infancy, we must better understand the types of digital channels available. To impact public health outcomes, we need to understand how to reach our intended audience. New foundational studies are needed (including those on digital metrics, measurement, and implementation) to support activities and initiatives that will enable the public to receive evidence-based, timely, and clear health communication and education. As a result, we have adjusted our burden estimate and revised the number of respondents to the information collection.
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;
If you are unable to certify compliance with any of these provisions, identify the item by leaving the box unchecked and explain the reason in the Supporting Statement.
