DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE

Department of the Navy

[Docket ID: USN-2022-HQ-0003]

Submission for OMB Review; Comment Request

AGENCY: Department of the Navy, Department of Defense (DoD).

ACTION: Emergency 30-day information collection notice.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: Consistent with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 and its 
implementing regulations, this document provides notice that DoD is 
submitting an Information Collection Request to the Office of 
Management and Budget (OMB) to collect information about the behavior 
and attitudes of enlisted Navy Sailors regarding alcohol use and sexual 
assault in order to assist in the adaptation of an existing web-based 
sexual assault prevention program for use among enlisted Navy Sailors. 
DoD requests emergency processing and OMB authorization to collect the 
information after publication of this notice for a period of six 
months.

DATES: Comments must be received by February 25, 2022.

ADDRESSES: The Department has requested emergency processing from OMB 
for this information collection request by 30 days after publication of 
this notice. Interested parties can access the supporting materials and 
collection instrument as well as submit comments and recommendations to 
OMB at www.reginfo.gov/public/do/PRAMain. Find this particular 
information collection by selecting ``Currently under 30-day Review--
Open for Public Comments'' or by using the search function. Comments 
submitted in response to this notice will be summarized and included in 
the request for OMB approval of this information collection. They will 
also become a matter of public record.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Angela Duncan, 571-372-7574, or 
[email protected].

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This submission corresponds to the grant 
number W81XWH-20-2-0039 funded by the Congressionally Directed Medical 
Research Program and aligns with the Secretary of Defense's call for 
novel programs to prevent sexual assault within the military. Given the 
practical challenges of delivering tailored sexual assault prevention 
to service members in-person, a computerized prevention program that 
focuses on multiple risk factors for sexual aggression and sexual 
victimization, while engaging all service members as active bystanders 
to reduce risk for violence, addresses a significant gap in prevention 
delivery. A normative survey will provide information about the 
behavior and attitudes of Sailors regarding alcohol use and sexual 
assault. Next, focus groups and interviews will be conducted to obtain 
feedback about the content of the intervention and ways to adapt it for 
Sailors. There is no standardized set of questions for the focus groups 
or interviews, so they are not included in this information collection 
request. However, interviewees and focus group respondents will be 
selected based on their drinking habits, which will be determined by a 
brief pre-interview/focus group survey. After interview/focus group 
completion, a post-interview/focus group survey will be given to obtain 
demographic and alcohol use information to be used as descriptive 
information, as well as data from standardized measures that assess 
respondents' opinions of the existing intervention. These two surveys 
are included in this request. Data from the three surveys will be 
incorporated into the intervention content and help generate an adapted 
prototype of the sexual assault prevention program (+Change) for 
Sailors. This study is a critical advancement in the prevention of 
sexual assault in military service members.
    Title; Associated Form; and OMB Number: Personalized Web-Based
