Recommendations

In compliance with the requirement

of Section 3506(c)(2)(A) of the

Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 for

opportunity for public comment on

proposed data collection projects, the

Centers for Disease Control and

summaries of proposed projects. To

request more information on the

proposed projects or to obtain a copy of

the data collection plans and

instruments, call the CDC Reports

Clearance Officer on (404) 639–7090.

Comments are invited on: (a) Whether

the proposed collection of information

is necessary for the proper performance

of the functions of the agency, including

whether the information shall have

practical utility; (b) the accuracy of the

Proposed Projects

1. Questionnaire Design Research

Laboratory (QDRL), 1998–2000 (0920–

0222—Revision). The QDRL conducts

pretesting activities related to the

development of NCHS and other Federal

survey questionnaires, such as the

National Health Interview Survey

(NHIS). These activities mainly involve

use of the cognitive interview, in which

volunteer respondents (‘‘laboratory

subjects’’) are administered draft survey

questions, and are asked to react to

those questions. The cognitive

interviewer notes sources of error in

these questions, based on problems that

subjects have in comprehending the

questions and in attempting to recall the

information requested. After several

cycles of testing of small numbers of

respondents (generally 10–12), and

development of the questions between

testing ‘‘rounds,’’ the questionnaires are

improved to the point to which they are

ready for field testing and household

administration. QDRL staff are also

engaged in the conduct of general

questionnaire design research, in which

survey questions are administered to

laboratory subjects using different

phrasings, or under different

administration modes (e.g., face-to-face

versus telephone), in order to determine

the optimal means for presenting the

questions. These investigative pretesting

activities are now routinely used by

NCHS and by other survey organizations

for testing and development purposes,

and result in high data quality at a

respondent burden.

The total cost to respondents of this

information collection is $22,500 over

the three years for which clearance is

requested.

Proposed Project

1. Sun Protection for Children—

New—Skin cancer is of increasing

public health concern because of its

increasing incidence. Ultraviolet

radiation is the primary risk factor for

skin cancers, and the risk of skin cancer

appears to be increased with early life

exposures to ultraviolet radiation.

However, little information is available

on sun protection for children.

Therefore, the Centers for Disease

Control and Prevention, National Center

for Chronic Disease Prevention and

Control, Division of Cancer Prevention

and Control, intends to conduct a

survey on sun protection for children to

monitor sun protection behaviors,

develop health messages, and target

populations for health education as part

of the National Skin Cancer Prevention

Education Program.

A representative sample of parents of

children aged 6 months to 10 years,

selected by random digit dialing, will be

interviewed over the telephone. The

information collected will include

demographic information, parental

knowledge and attitudes about skin

cancer and sun protection, and sun

protection for their children. The total

annual burden hours are 2,594.
