Abstract: Techniques such as focus groups, cognitive interviews, usability tests, and split panel tests are routinely used to improve the quality and timeliness of survey instruments, methodologies, and data dissemination tools, while simultaneously reducing respondent burden. The purpose of this generic clearance is to allow NCSES to continue using these techniques to improve its data collections and data dissemination related to science, engineering, technology, and research and development (R&D). Respondents are from industry, academia, nonprofit organizations, and members of the public.

The latest form for NCSES-Generic Clearance of Survey Improvement Projects for the National Center for Science and Engineering Statistics expires 2028-12-31 and is listed under ICR 202511-3145-001.
