Federal Register / Vol. 74, No. 175 / Friday, September 11, 2009 / Notices 46779 

Service Act, establishes the Center for 

Mental Health Services (CMHS), 

Substance Abuse and Mental Health 

Services Administration (SAMHSA), 

and authorizes the CMHS to conduct 

surveys with respect to mental health. 

To monitor the prevalence of children 

and youth with mental health problems, 

CMHS and the National Institute of 

Mental Health (NIMH), through a 

reimbursable agreement with the NCHS 

have funded questions on children’s 

mental health on the National Health 

Interview Survey (NHIS). 

One component of the NHIS is the 

short Strengths and Difficulties 

Questionnaire (short SDQ), a module 

that has obtained data on the mental 

health of children aged 4–17 years since 

2001. As part of its mission, CMHS has 

undertaken the task of improving its 

methods for providing national 

estimates related to child mental health, 

specifically by conducting studies that 

determine validity and appropriate cutpoints for measuring serious 

psychological distress in adults. To 

ensure that the short SDQ is a valid 

measure of child mental health, the 

proposed study calibrates the SDQ on 

the NHIS to a standard psychiatric 

measure. Highly trained clinical 

interviewers will administer, via 

telephone, the Child and Adolescent 

Psychiatric Assessment (CAPA) or the 

Pre-School Age Psychiatric Assessment 

(PAPA) to the parents of a sample of 

children aged 4–17 years identified in 

the NHIS as having mental health 

problems. Children aged 9–17 will also 

be interviewed using Child and 

Adolescent Psychiatric Assessment 

(CAPA). Clinical interviewers will also 

administer these assessments to a 

suitable control group of parents and 

children. One part of this voluntary 

study will investigate the use of 

incentives which may be paid to all 

parents, and another incentive may be 

paid to all parents who complete the 

clinical interview. A 24 month 

clearance is being sought to conduct this 

study. 

Data collected in the follow-up 

interviews will then be used to calibrate 

the short SDQ as it is used in the NHIS. 

Data will not be used to produce 

national estimates. 

This study includes a pilot study of 

36 children and 50 parents to test the 

procedures and methods, including the 

necessity of an incentive, followed by a 

full survey of approximately 400 parents 

and 300 children. 

There is no cost to respondents other 

than their time.
