broadcast station’s digital signal and
provides viewers (via their DTV
receivers) with information about the
station and what is being broadcast,
such as program information. The
Commission has recognized the utility
that the ATSC PSIP standard offers for
both broadcasters and consumers (or
viewers) of digital television (‘‘DTV’’).
ATSC PSIP standard A/65C requires
broadcasters to provide detailed
programming information when
transmitting their broadcast signal. This
standard enhances consumers’ viewing
experience by providing detailed
information about digital channels and
programs, such as how to find a
program’s closed captions, multiple
streams and V-chip information. This
standard requires broadcasters to
populate the Event Information Tables
(‘‘EITs’’) (or program guide) with
accurate information about each event
(or program) and to update the EIT if
more accurate information becomes
available. The previous ATSC PSIP
standard A/65–B did not require
broadcasters to provide such detailed
programming information but only
general information.

Title: National Study of Title IV–E
Child Welfare Waiver Demonstrations.
OMB No.: New Collection.
Description: The National Study of
the Title IV–E Child Welfare Waiver
Demonstrations is sponsored by the
Children’s Bureau, Administration for
Children and Families of the U.S.
Department of Health and Human
Services and involves the conduct of a
cross-site study of jurisdictions (referred
to as waiver jurisdictions) approved to
operate demonstrations authorized by
section 1130 of the Social Security Act,
as amended by the Child and Family
Services Improvement and Innovation
Act, Public Law 112–34. The
demonstrations involve waivers of
certain provisions of the foster care
program authorized by title IV–E of the
Social Security Act. Child welfare
agencies in waiver jurisdictions are
operating demonstrations to implement
a variety of programs and interventions
that serve children and families in an
effort to improve their safety,
permanency, and well-being. Each
waiver jurisdiction is required to
conduct a third-party evaluation of its
demonstration. The National Study will
examine the extent to which safety,
permanency, and well-being outcomes
have improved for children and
families; the characteristics of waiver
jurisdictions where improvements in
outcomes have occurred; expenditure
patterns and the types of activities for
which waiver jurisdictions have
increased funding; and the extent to
which waiver jurisdictions have
experienced practice and systems-level
changes.
The National Study uses a mixedmethod approach to examine 25 waiver
jurisdictions (including 23 states, the
District of Columbia and one tribal
government) with Terms and Conditions
approved in Federal Fiscal years 2012,
2013, and 2014. Proposed data
collection methods are two topicallyfocused telephone surveys: (a) A
telephone survey of waiver jurisdiction
representatives and evaluators who are
focused on measuring well-being, and
(b) a second telephone survey of waiver
jurisdiction representatives and
evaluators that is focused on
understanding practice and systemslevel changes within child welfare
service systems. Also proposed is a
Web-based survey of waiver jurisdiction
representatives and evaluators that will
look more broadly at the
implementation of waiver
demonstrations and corresponding
changes in child welfare policy,
practice, and financing. Two sampling
survey forms are being proposed to
collect the necessary contact
information for respondents to the Web-
based survey and the telephone survey
focused on understanding practice and
systems-level changes within child
welfare service systems. Data collected
through these instruments will be used
by the Children’s Bureau to gain an
understanding of the jurisdictions’
collective experience with
implementing their demonstrations.
Respondents: The respondents to the
Web-Based Survey will be a purposive
sample of an estimated 250 waiver
jurisdiction representatives and
evaluators drawn from the 25 waiver
jurisdictions with waiver demonstration
projects (Arkansas, Arizona, Colorado,
Hawaii, Illinois, Kentucky, Maine,
Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan,
Nebraska, Nevada, New York,
Oklahoma, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Port
Gamble S’Klallam Tribe, Rhode Island,
Tennessee, Texas, Utah, Washington,
Washington DC, West Virginia,
Wisconsin). The respondents will be
identified by the 25 jurisdiction
demonstration project leaders using the
Web-Based Survey Sampling Form. The
Web-Based Survey Sampling Form and
the Web-Based Survey will be
administered once during the National
Study. The respondents to the
Measuring Well-Being telephone survey
will be a census sample of the 23
evaluators identified from the 23 waiver
jurisdictions who are involved with the
assessment of child and family wellbeing in their waiver jurisdictions. The
Measuring Well-Being telephone survey
will be administered once during the
National Study. The respondents to the
Practice and Systems-Level Change
telephone survey will be a purposive
sample of 60 respondents identified
from 14 waiver jurisdictions who are
knowledgeable about practice, policy,
and organizational changes in their
respective waiver jurisdictions. The
respondents will be identified by the 14
jurisdiction demonstration project
leaders using the Practice- and SystemsLevel Change Survey Sampling Form.
The Practice- and Systems-Level Change
Survey Sampling Form and the Practice
and Systems-Level Change telephone
survey will be administered once during
the National Study.
