Proposed Collection; Comment Request; the NIH-American 
Association for Retired Persons (AARP) Interactive Comprehensive 
Lifestyle Interview by Computer Study (iCLIC) (NCI)

SUMMARY: In compliance with the requirement of Section 3506(c)(2)(A) of 
the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, for opportunity for public comment 
on proposed data collection projects, the National Cancer Institute 
(NCI), the National Institutes of Health (NIH) will publish periodic 
summaries of proposed projects to be submitted to the Office of 
Management and Budget (OMB) for review and approval.

PROPOSED COLLECTION: Title: NIH-American Association for Retired 
Persons (AARP) interactive Comprehensive Lifestyle Interview by 
Computer Study (iCLIC). Type of Information Collection Request: 
Extension. Need and Use of Information Collection: The Nutritional 
Epidemiology Branch of the Division of Cancer Epidemiology and Genetics 
of the National Cancer Institute has planned this study to evaluate the 
feasibility of using these three new computerized questionnaires as 
well as the Diet and Health Questionnaire (DHQ), a well-established 
food frequency questionnaire in a population of early-to-late-middle-
aged men and women. Participants will be asked to complete computerized 
questionnaires over a 90 day period, with some questionnaires in a 
series being completed twice. This evaluation study comprises the 
necessary performance and feasibility tests for the new computerized 
questionnaires, which will provide an opportunity to assess the 
possibility of administering computerized questionnaires in future 
large prospective cohort studies. The computerized questionnaires will 
support the ongoing examination between cancer and other health 
outcomes with nutritional, physical activity, and lifestyle exposures. 
The computerized questionnaires adhere to The Public Health Service 
Act, Section 412 (42 U.S.C. 285a-1) and Section 413 (42 U.S.C. 285a-2), 
which authorizes the Division of Cancer Epidemiology and Genetics of 
the National Cancer Institute (NCI) to establish and support programs 
for the detection, diagnosis, prevention and treatment of cancer; and 
to collect, identify, analyze and disseminate information on cancer 
research, diagnosis, prevention and treatment. Frequency of Response: 
Either 1 or 2 times. Affected Public: Individuals. Type of Respondents: 
U.S. adults (aged 50 and over). The annual reporting burden is 
displayed in the table below. The estimated total annualized burden 
hours being requested is 6886. The annualized cost to respondents is 
estimated at $121,743. There are no Capital Costs, Operating Costs, 
and/or Maintenance Costs to report.
