Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration


Agency Information Collection Activities: Submission for OMB 
Review; Comment Request

    Periodically, the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services 
Administration (SAMHSA) will publish a summary of information 
collection requests under OMB review, in compliance with the Paperwork 
Reduction Act (44 U.S.C. Chapter 35). To request a copy of these 
documents, call the SAMHSA Reports Clearance Officer on (240) 276-1243.

Project: ``Talk. They Hear You.'' Campaign Evaluation: National 
Survey--NEW

    SAMHSA's Center for Substance Abuse Prevention (CSAP) is requesting 
approval from the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) for a new data 
collection, ``Talk. They Hear You.'' Campaign Evaluation: National 
Survey. This collection includes two instruments:

1. Screener
2. Survey Tool

    The national survey is part of a larger effort to evaluate the 
impact of the ``Talk. They Hear You.'' campaign. These evaluations will 
help determine the extent to which the campaign has been successful in 
educating parents and caregivers nationwide about effective methods for 
reducing underage drinking (UAD). The campaign is designed to educate 
and empower parents and caregivers to talk with children about alcohol. 
To prevent initiation of underage drinking, the campaign targets 
parents and caregivers of children aged 9-15, with the specific aims 
of:
    1. Increasing parent or caregiver awareness of and receptivity to 
campaign messages (knowledge);
    2. Increasing parent or caregiver awareness of underage drinking 
prevalence (knowledge);
    3. Increasing parent or caregiver disapproval of underage drinking 
(attitudes);
    4. Increasing parent or caregiver knowledge, skills, and confidence 
in how to talk to their children about, and prevent, UAD (attitudes); 
and
    5. Increasing parent or caregiver actions to prevent underage 
drinking by talking to their children about UAD (behaviors).
    The national survey will target parents in the base year in 2018, 
and then annually in the 4 option years following that, making this a 
repeat cross-sectional research study. The survey will be based on the 
survey originally approved for use in the 2016 impact evaluation, which 
was designed to quantify parent and caregiver awareness of the campaign 
and retention of campaign messages, and to determine whether parents 
and caregivers have used the campaign materials in talking to their 
children. SAMHSA will seek to conduct this research nationwide through 
online surveys. The survey will be accessible via an access link that 
will be disseminated to respondents via email. Respondents will be 
recruited to participate in this online survey from a 
Qualtrics(copyright) panel (which hosts more than 6 million active 
panelists), as was done for the survey pilot conducted in 2016. 
Researchers will conduct a quota-based sampling approach to maximize 
the representativeness of the sample and will be oversampling the 
Hispanic population. This will allow us to achieve a representative 
sample of parents of middle-school-aged children in the United States 
across notable socioeconomic and demographic variables of interest to 
the study. This approach will also allow us to oversample minority 
populations, such as Hispanics, as necessary in order to achieve the 
diversity needed to yield a comprehensive set of opinions, experiences, 
and feedback of the ``Talk. They Hear You.'' campaign materials and 
products.
