SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. Abstract

    The Science Mission Directorate (SMD) within NASA is undertaking an 
Inclusion, Diversity, Equity, and Accessibility (IDEA) change effort. 
SMD seeks to advance these IDEA principles in all SMD programs and 
activities. This survey will be used as an evidence-building tool 
baselining SMD staff (civil servants and contractors) views on the SMD 
cultural climate. The survey will then be periodically (approximately 
annually) administered to determine whether cultural indicators are 
improving as IDEA efforts are implemented. Data obtained is intended 
for SMD internal use only and will not be publicly released. Data will 
be used to inform and substantiate IDEA strategy, initiatives, and 
design. This intelligence will be laser-focused on improving SMD's 
internal environment. This survey will be open to both contractors and 
civil servants because contractors are integral to and embedded within 
the SMD workforce. No other data collection mechanism exists to obtain 
opinions from the contractor portion of the workforce on this topic. 
The survey will be voluntary and anonymous (the identity of survey 
respondents will not be collected).

II. Methods of Collection

    Electronic.
