Proposed Project 

Randomized Controlled Trial of 

Routine Screening for Intimate Partner 

Violence—Revision—National Center 

for Injury Prevention and Control 

(NCIPC), Centers for Disease Control 

and Prevention (CDC). 

Background and Brief Description 

The Centers for Disease Control and 

Prevention (CDC) requests OMB 

approval of revisions to a currently 

approved collection entitled 

‘‘Randomized Controlled Trial of 

Routine Screening for Intimate Partner 

Violence’’ (approved 01/24/2008; 

expiration date 01/29/2011). The 

proposed changes are a result of 

findings from the Pretest that showed 

high numbers of Spanish speakers at 

recruitment clinics, a higher prevalence 

of reported exposure to intimate partner 

violence (IPV), and redundancy of the 

20-item mental health scale with other 

measures being used. As a result, we are 

requesting approval to extend trial 

inclusion criteria to Spanish speakers, a 

reduction in sample size, and deletion 

of a 20-question mental health scale. 

These last two changes will result in a 

decrease in burden to respondents. In 

addition, we are requesting an extension 

of three years to complete this 

information collection. The overarching 

purpose of the information collection 

has not changed nor are there 

substantial changes to the study 

methods. 

The revisions requested will reduce 

annual burden by 410 hours. Deletion of 

the mental health scale will reduce the 

burden response by 2 minutes; the 

reduction of sample size will reduce 

number of respondents; and extension 

of information collection time will 

decrease annualized burden. The Pretest 

has already been conducted and the 

estimates of burden for the interview in 

the Main Study are based on results 

from the Pretest. Based on our new 

sample size estimates adjusted as a 

result of findings in the Pretest, in the 

Main Study, we will approach an 

estimated total of 3340 women to 

establish eligibility and recruit about 

2675 (total) women. The annualized 

average response burden equals 308 

hours, which is a reduction of 410 

burden hours. 

There is no cost to respondents.
