This proposed information collection was previously published in the Federal Register on April 27, 2006 page 26381 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. Proposed Collection Title: CERTAS: A Researcher Configurable Self-Monitoring System. Type of Information Collection Request: NEW. Need and Use of Information Collection: This study seeks to further our understanding of the usefulness and potential advantages of electronic selfmonitoring of behavior-specifically diet and exercise behaviors associated with reduction of cancer risks. Logs, diaries, checklists and other self-monitoring tools are a ubiquitous part of nearly all cancer control research. The primary objective of this study trial is to compare paper-based self-monitoring to CERTAS self-monitoring devices (wireless sync and local sync) in a range of cancer risk behaviors. The findings will provide valuable information regarding: (1) A comparison of the real time recording compliance of these methods, (2) the pre-post effects of each type of recording (paper versus electronic), and (3) the relative cost per valid recorded entry for the two methods. Frequency of Response: Daily. Affected Public: Individuals. Type of Respondents: Males and females 18 years of age or older who are: (1) Interested in improving their diet and exercise behaviors as they relate to cancer prevention, (2) proficient in utilizing a computer, and (3) generally healthy with no medical conditions which would require a special diet or preclude regular exercise. The annual reporting burden is as follows: Estimated Number of Respondents: 200; Estimated Number of Responses per Respondent: 3; Average Burden Hours per Response: 1.9; Estimated Total Annual Burden Hours Requested: 1,148; Estimated Annualized Cost to Respondents: $18,368.00.
