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 Institute on Drug Abuse
(NIDA), 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. The
proposed information collection was
previously published in the Federal
Register on December 8, 2004, page
71060 and allowed 60 days for public
comment. No public comments were
received. The purpose of this notice is
to allow an additional 30 days for public
comment. The National Institutes of
Health may not conduct or sponsor, and
the respondent is not required to
respond to, an information collection
that has been extended, revised, or
implemented on or after October 1,
1995, unless it displays a currently valid
OMB control number.

Proposed Collection
Title: BrainTrain4Kids: New Delivery
of the Brain Power Program. Type of
information Collection Request: NEW.
Need and Use of Information Collection:
This research will evaluate the effects of
BrainTrain4Kids.com, an online
program for students (Grades 2 and 3),
on: (1) Students’ knowledge of scientific
inquiry, the human nervous system, the
effects of alcohol and tobacco on the
brain, and the differences between
helpful and harmful drugs; (2) students’
attitudes toward science in general; and
(3) students’ attitudes toward substance
abuse. The secondary goals of the
summative evaluation are to determine
if changes in knowledge and attitudes
are retained over follow-up period as
well as to determine if parents and
second- and third-grade students will
report a high degree of satisfaction with
the online program. The online program
is a new delivery of a National Institute
on Drug Abuse science education
curriculum for second- and third-grade
teachers (Brain Power! The NIDA Junior
Scientist Club) adapted for the Internet
and for use by children at home under
the guidance of their parents. If the new
program is successful, the public will
have access to an evidence-based
program via the Internet that contributes
to scientific literacy and provides a
basis of knowledge upon which to build
future substance abuse prevention. In
order to evaluate the effectiveness of the
program, information will be collected
from students before (pretest) and after
(post-test) exposure to the Web site and
again 6 weeks after the program has
been completed (follow-up). Parents
will be asked to complete usage logs at
six points during their use of the
BrainTrain4Kids Web site with their
children. Prior to the evaluation study,
the knowledge and attitude assessment
instruments will be pilot-tested with a
small sample of students to determine
validity and reliability. All data
collection will occur online. Frequency
of Response: On occasion. Affected
Public: Second- and third-grade
children and their parents. Type of
Respondents: Second- and third-grade
children and their parents. The
reporting burden is as follows:
Estimated Number of Respondents: 308;
Estimated Number of Responses per
Respondents: One for two key cohorts,
three for one key cohort, and seven for
one key cohort; Average Burden Hours
per Response: 0.378; and Estimated
Total Annual Burden Hours Requested:
479.50. There are no Capital Costs to
report. There are no Operating or
Maintenance Costs to report. The

Proposed Collection: Title: National
Survey of Primary Care Physicians’
Recommendations and Practice for
Breast, Cervical, Colorectal, and Lung
Cancer Screening. Type of Information
Collection Request: New. Need and Use
of Information Collection: This study
will obtain current, national data on
primary care physicians’ knowledge,
attitudes, recommendations, and

cervical, colorectal, and lung cancer.
There have been substantial changes in
guidelines and/or technologies for these
types of cancer screening in recent
years. The data collected in this study
will support and further NCI work in
monitoring and evaluating providers’
cancer control knowledge, attitudes, and
practices and their impact on
population health, as well as enable
monitoring of progress toward major
cancer control goals. Two
questionnaires, one covering breast and
cervical cancer screening and the other
colorectal and lung cancer screening,
will be administered by mail or
telephone to a randomly-selected
national sample of primary care
physicians. Frequency of Response: One
Time. Affected Public: Medical
practices, clinics, or other health care
organizations. Type of Respondents:
