Proposed Project
Health Message Testing System—
Revision—National Center for Health
Marketing (NCHM), Coordinating Center
for Health Information and Service
(CCHIS), Centers for Disease Control
and Prevention, (CDC).
Background and Brief Description
The National Center for Health
Marketing (NCHM) was established as
part of the Centers for Disease Control
and Prevention’s Futures Initiative to
help ensure that health information,
interventions, and programs at CDC are
based on sound science, objectivity, and
continuous customer input.
Before CDC disseminates a health
message to the public, the message
always undergoes scientific review.
However, reflecting the current state of
scientific knowledge accurately
provides no guarantee that the public
will understand a health message or that
the message will move people to take
recommended action. Communication
theorists and researchers agree that for
health messages to be as clear and
influential as possible, target audience
members or representatives must be
involved in developing the messages
and provisional versions of the
messages must be tested with members
of the target audience.
However, increasingly there are
circumstances when CDC must move
swiftly to protect life, prevent disease,
or calm public anxiety. Health message
testing is even more important in these
instances, because of the critical nature
of the information need. Consider the
following situations:
CDC must communicate about a
hazard, outbreak, or other emergency
that presents an urgent threat to one or
more segments of the public. The
national crisis in which anthrax spores
contaminated mail, postal facilities, and
congressional buildings is a striking
example.
CDC receives a mandate from
Congress with a tight deadline for
PO 00000
Frm 00051

communicating with the public about a
specific topic. For example, in 1998
Congress gave CDC 120 days to develop
and test messages for a public
information campaign about
Helicobacter pylori, a bacterium that can
cause stomach ulcers and increase
cancer risk if an infected individual is
not treated with antibiotics.
Emerging lifestyle or technological
trends create an ephemeral opportunity
to leverage the attention or behavior of
the public to increase the reach and/or
salience of prevention messages. For
example, media monitoring reveals a
partnership between Napster, a musicbased Web site, and the Pennsylvania
State University. This partnership
creates an ample opportunity for CDC to
join in the collaboration to reach
students with a salient health promotion
message. For instance, a ticker found on
the top of the Napster homepage screen
might contain an informational URL
followed by a message encouraging
students, especially those residing in
dormitories, to receive the meningitis
inoculation series at their campus
health center. This message would be
tailored prior to the beginning of each
academic year and would need to be
posted in a timely manner before the
arrival of the incoming freshman class.
Of equal importance, this
communication mechanism can be
effectively used in emergency ‘‘rapid
response’’ situations such as the campus
shooting incidents at Virginia Tech and
North Illinois University.
In the interest of timely health
message dissemination, many programs
forgo the important step of testing
messages on dimensions such as clarity,
salience, appeal, and persuasiveness
(i.e., the ability to influence behavioral
intention). Skipping this step avoids the
delay involved in the standard OMB
review process, but at a high potential
cost. Untested messages can waste
communication resources and
opportunities because the messages can
be perceived as unclear or irrelevant.
Untested messages can also have
unintended consequences, such as
jeopardizing the credibility of Federal
health officials.
There is no cost to the respondents
other than their time. The total
estimated annualized burden hours are
2,470.
