Proposed Information Collection 

Activity; Comment Request 

Title: Measurement Development: 

Quality of Caregiver-Child Interactions 

for Infants and Toddlers (Q–CCIIT). 

OMB No.: New Collection. 

Description: The Office of Planning, 

Research and Evaluation (OPRE), 

Administration for Children and 

Families (ACE), U.S. Department of 

Health and Human Services (HHS), is 

proposing to develop a new observation 

measure to assess the quality of child 

care settings, specifically the quality of 

caregiver-child interaction for infants 

and toddlers in nonparental care. The 

measure will be appropriate for use 

across child care settings, center-based 

and family child care settings as well as 

single- and mixed-age classrooms. 

The two-year data collection activity 

will include two phases: (1) A pilot test 

and (2) a psychometric field test. We 

will request information about the child 

care setting, its classrooms and families 

for recruitment into the study. 

Information will be collected through 

observations, focus groups, and 

questionnaires. 

In the pilot and field tests, the new Q– 

CCIIT observation measure will include 

observing a small group activity 

structured with a common task and 

asking follow-up observation questions. 

Caregivers observed will also complete 

a background questionnaire. Focus 

groups to obtain stakeholder input on 

caregiver-child interactions will be 

conducted separately with parents, 

caregivers, and training and technical 

assistance providers. Focus group 

participants will also complete a 

demographic questionnaire. Parents of 

children served by caregivers will 

complete a questionnaire on their 

child’s competencies related to 

cognitive, language/communication, 

and social-emotional development. 

Parents will complete this 

questionnaire, which will also include 

family and child characteristics, once in 

the pilot test and twice in the field test, 

at the start of the field test and 6 months 

later to assess growth. 

The purpose of this data collection is 

to support the 2007 reauthorization of 

the Head Start program (Pub. L. 110– 

134), which calls for periodic 

assessments of Head Start’s quality and 

effectiveness. 

Respondents: Child care setting 

representatives (directors or owners), 

caregivers (center-based and family 

child care settings), parents of children 

in those child care settings, and training 

and technical assistance providers.
