supplement is being awarded for a
project that will deliver comprehensive

that they have adequate housing and
other services to assist in their

drug abuse research community before
proceeding with the development of
formal distance learning programs.
Reviews of distance education programs
in the developing world often reveal
that systematically organized learning
needs assessments are continually
absent. (USAID 2001: The Use and
Effect of Distance Education in
Healthcare: What Do We Know?
Operations Research Issue Paper 2).
This survey will address that issue.
The survey is based on
recommendations received from current
international drug abuse researchers and
NIDA grantees. It is designed to be brief
(2 pages) and succinct, asking
respondents to prioritize their
educational needs. The questions have
been previously tested with persons
who speak English as a second
language. Total time to complete the
survey is less than five minutes. The
survey will cover the following
elements: (1) Respondent background,
including availability of educational
technologies, (2) Educational needs,
including a ranking of 10 proposed
topics in drug abuse education, and (3)
Collaborative needs, including an
estimate of the value of online tools for
research collaboration. The survey will
not collect name, address, or other
identifying information. Frequency of
Response: This project will be
conducted once. Affected Public:
International drug abuse researchers
who are currently affiliated with or wish
to be affiliated with the U.S. drug abuse
research community. Type of
Respondents/Drug Abuse Researchers:
physicians, scientists, mental health
workers, and scientists-in-training. The
reporting burden is as follows:
Estimated Total Annual Number of
Respondents: 250; Estimated Number of
Responses per Respondent: 1; Average
Burden Hours per Response: 0.09.
Estimated Total Annual Burden Hours
Requested: 22.5. There are no Capital
