Proposed Project 

Colorectal Cancer Screening Survey— 

New—National Center for Chronic 

Disease Prevention and Health 

Promotion (NCCDPHP), Centers for 

Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). 

Background and Brief Description 

The Centers for Disease Control (CDC) 

plans to conduct a study to improve 

understanding of the reasons that 

individuals do not get screened for 

colorectal cancer (CRC). CRC is the 

second leading cause of cancer related 

death in the U.S. and early screening 

can prevent deaths, but screening rates 

are low. Screening for CRC is 

recommended for adults starting at age 

50. However, as of 2008, only 62.9% of 

adults aged 50–75 years were screened 

as recommended. 

CDC requests OMB approval to pretest 

and field the Colorectal Cancer 

Screening Survey, which will collect 

information on individuals’ preferences 

for different characteristics of CRC 

screening tests; and how these 

preferences are affected by CRC risk 

perceptions, real-life experiences with 

CRC screening, and exposure to two 

different fact sheets on CRC screening. 

Information collection will involve a 

Web-based survey. Preferences for 

screening tests with different attributes 

will be measured using the statedpreference discrete choice experiment 

(DCE) survey approach (also known as 

conjoint analysis). The DCE format 

presents respondents with choices 

between hypothetical CRC tests that 

vary along key attributes. The attributes 

that will be assessed for CRC screening 

tests are: (1) What the test can find, (2) 

how often an individual can take the 

test, (3) whether the test can remove 

cancer and polyps (4) preparation before 

the test, (5), discomfort and activity 

limitations during and after the test, and 

(6) cost of the test. Results will be 

analyzed to quantify the rate at which 

respondents are willing to trade-off one 

attribute for another and to rank the 

importance of attributes and changes in 

attribute levels. The DCE questions will 

include the choice of not getting a test 

to explore the factors that influence the 

desire to get screening tests. The impact 

of respondent risk perceptions and 

experience with CRC screening on 

preferences for CRC screening tests and 

willingness to get a test in the future 

will be tested. 

The survey will also collect 

information to measure the impact of 

selected educational materials on 

preferences for CRC screening tests. 

Each respondent will be randomly 

assigned to one of three information 

treatments: (1) A control group that 

receives no additional information 

about CRC screening, (2) a treatment 

group that receives a ‘‘No Excuses’’ 

educational flyer designed to dispel 

many common reasons for not getting a 

colonoscopy, or (3) a treatment group 

that receives a two-page Fact Sheet 

about CRC and screening options. The 

flyer and fact sheet were developed in 

conjunction with CDC’s Screen for Life 

program. 

Information will be collected 

primarily from a sample of 2,000 adults 

aged 50–75 through a Web-based survey 

administered by GfK Knowledge 

Networks (KN). The estimated burden 

per response is 22–25 minutes. 

Respondents will be randomly selected 

from the KN KnowledgePanel®. A pretest of study procedures will be 

conducted prior to initiating the main 

study. 

CDC is authorized to conduct this 

information collection under the Public 

Health Service Act (42 U.S.C. 241) 

Section 301. Results from this study will 

enhance understanding of public 

preferences for CRC screening tests, and 

the impact of education materials, risk 

perceptions, and real-life experiences on 

CRC screening preferences. Such 

information will help CDC and other 

public health policy makers to design, 

develop, and implement more effective 

programs to improve rates of CRC 

screening among average risk 

individuals. 

OMB approval is requested for one 

year. Participation is voluntary and 

there are no costs to respondents other 

than their time. The total estimated 

burden hours are 812.
