Download as PDF 20570 Federal Register / Vol. 70, No. 75 / Wednesday, April 20, 2005 / Notices gather evidence on whether a labeling statement on a specific product marketed in a specific context could produce the alleged harm and the harm is material. In addition to protecting consumer health from harms caused by deceptive product labeling, however, the agency’s mission also calls for advancing consumer health by providing information about food products to help consumers improve their health and decrease the risk of contracting diseases by making sound dietary choices. The study was proposed with this mission in mind and, therefore, neither intends, nor is designed to demonstrate any harm attributable to any specific health messages on any specific products. As stated in the 60-day notice, the study will hold back-panel information (e.g., nutrient contents) constant between front-panel conditions for a given food product. Furthermore, the nutrient contents of test products will meet current regulatory standards for various health messages. Therefore, by design, the study approach precludes any attempt to examine any potential harm as purported in the comment. Instead, the study approach is commonly used and accepted by researchers for the purpose of investigating communication efficacy of label stimuli. Health messages such as health claims are intended for use by all qualifying marketers and in all qualifying products, rather than certain specific marketers or products. Hence, under the agency’s regulatory regime, the study does not intend to examine specific claims on specific products in specific contexts, as individual marketers would do. Rather, the study will attempt to illustrate possible consumer responses to different types of health messages that may be found on packages of various food products. Finally, the agency notes that, despite the discordance between experimental contexts and the real world, experimental findings are widely recognized and accepted as the best available evidence to demonstrate communication efficacy. FDA estimates the burden of this collection of information as follows: TABLE 1.—ESTIMATED ANNUAL REPORTING BURDEN1 No. of Respondents Activity Annual Frequency per Response Pretest Total Annual Responses Hours per Response 60 1 60 Invitation 2,000 1 Interview, Phase 1 1,060 Interview, Phase 2 1,060 0.5 30 2,000 0.02 40 1 1,060 0.17 180 1 1,060 0.25 265 Total 1 There Total Hours 515 are no capital costs or operating and maintenance costs associated with this collection of information. Prior to the administration of the interview, the agency plans to conduct pretests of the final questionnaires to minimize potential problems in administration of the interviews. The pretests, each lasting 30 minutes (0.5 hours), will be conducted in up to 3 waves, each with 20 participants. A contractor will send 2,000 e-mail invitations to recruit participants. We assume 50 percent of those contacted will agree to participate in the interviews (1,060 respondents). The interviews are expected to last 10 minutes (0.17 hours) and 15 minutes (0.25 hours) for phase 1 and phase 2, respectively. The planned sample size per condition is approximately 120. The agency expects small main effects. Therefore, the planned sample size should yield a power of 0.8 at the 0.05 significance level. Dated: April 13, 2005.
