                     0990-0475. *Abstract:*
                     The Office of the Assistant Secretary for Public Affairs (ASPA), U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) is requesting an extension on a currently approved collection including two components: 1. COVID-19 Attitudes and Beliefs Survey (CABS), and 2. Monthly Outcome Survey (MOS). Throughout execution of the campaign, this information will primarily be used by ASPA to determine whether the campaign is having the intended impact on target audiences' knowledge, attitudes, and beliefs as they relate to COVID-19, COVID-19 vaccination, and adherence to preventative behaviors. It will also keep key stakeholders informed of the Campaign's progress. Ultimately, the data will inform a thorough evaluation of the efficacy of the campaign and its impact on vaccine uptake. COVID-19 Attitudes and Beliefs Survey (CABS) The CABS is a longitudinal survey that will be fielded tri-annually to 4,000 U.S. adults over two years (six waves) via NORC at the University of Chicago's AmeriSpeak Panel. The survey will be fielded online, and each fielding period will last between 3 and 6 weeks. Those that respond to wave 1 of the survey will be recontacted in each wave, facilitating a comparison of COVID-19 behavior change over time for a representative sample and evaluation of U.S. adults. Panel members selected to participate in the study will receive one pre-invitation postcard in the mail, one email invitation, and three email reminders to complete the survey in each wave. Monthly Outcome Survey (MOS) The MOS is a cross-sectional survey that will be fielded monthly to 5,000 U.S. adults over two years (24 waves) via the Ipsos KnowledgePanel 5K Omnibus Survey. The survey will be fielded online, and each fielding period will last between 7 and 10 days. Annualized Burden Hour Table
