Proposed Project

    National Youth Physical Activity and Nutrition Study (NYPANS)--
New--National Center for Chronic Disease Prevention and Health 
Promotion (NCCDPHP), Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).

Background and Brief Description

    The prevalence of obesity among adolescents aged 12 to 19 more than 
tripled in the past 20 years, increasing from 5% in 1980 to 17.6% in 
2006. Obese young people are more likely than children of normal weight 
to become overweight or obese adults, and are therefore more at risk 
for associated adult health problems, including heart disease, type 2 
diabetes, stroke, several types of cancer, and osteoarthritis. However, 
healthy lifestyle habits, including healthy eating and physical 
activity, can lower the risk of becoming obese and developing related 
diseases.
    CDC proposes to conduct a study involving a nationally 
representative sample of students attending public and private schools 
in grades 9-12. CDC will collect information from students in Spring 
2010. The primary information collection will include a paper-and-
pencil survey, a standardized protocol to measure height and weight, 
and telephone interviews to elicit 24-hour dietary recalls among a 
subsample of respondents. Information supporting the study also will be 
collected from school administrators and teachers.
    The study will: (1) Provide nationally representative data on 
behaviors and behavioral determinants related to physical activity and 
nutrition; (2) provide data to help improve the clarity and strengthen 
the validity of questions on the Youth Risk Behavior Survey (OMB No. 
0920-0493, exp. 11/30/2011), which has been conducted biennially since 
1991; and (3) improve understanding of the associations among behaviors 
and behavioral determinants related to physical activity and nutrition, 
and their association with body mass index.
    Study results will be used to develop more effective interventions 
for stemming the increase of obesity among adolescents, and will have 
implications for policy and program development for obesity prevention 
programs.
    There are no costs to respondents except their time. The total 
estimated burden hours are 7,781.
