Background and Brief Description NCIPC seeks to obtain, over a five year period, advice and feedback from tweens/teens (aged 11–14) regarding message development/placement, creative executions, appropriate partners, and other similar issues, to inform ongoing implementation and evaluation of the Choose Respect campaign (OMB#0920–0687), an initiative intended to promote youth awareness of and participation in healthy peer relationships.

To that end, the NCIPC proposes conducting further planning, implementation, and evaluation research that enlists the involvement and support of youth, parents and other influencers and measures the effect of the campaign on the target audiences. The evaluation will provide interim and ongoing feedback to campaign planners regarding the implementation and progress of the campaign. The proposed data collection will enlist geographically, culturally/ racially/ethnically, and socioeconomically diverse groups of young people to complete: (1) Ten-minute online surveys, with 200 respondents, four times per year; and (2) 12 in-person focus groups, with 12 participants each, twice per year. Online surveys will reduce the potential burden for young people as web-based formats are convenient and consistent with the way they communicate and spend their leisure time. Online surveys—Each webbased survey will involve a different group of 200 tweens/teens. In-person focus groups—First and second focus groups will involve different groups of young people. The following focus groups will be segmented by age and gender, as indicated. The total annualized estimated burden hours are 1,354. There are no costs to respondents other than their time.

Proposed Project Testing and Development of Materials Promoting Prevention and Control of Traumatic Brain Injury in Schools— New—Division of Injury Response (DIR), National Center for Injury Prevention and Control (NCIPC), Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). Background and Brief Description Each year, an estimated 1.4 million Americans sustain a traumatic brain injury (TBI). A TBI is caused by a bump, blow, or jolt to the head or a penetrating head injury that disrupts the normal function of the brain. Children ages 0 to 4 years and adolescents ages 15–19 are at the greatest risk of sustaining a TBI, as they often sustain TBIs from a host of mechanisms including falls (down stairs or from heights such as counter tops or beds), direct impacts (e.g., getting hit in the head with a ball), and motor vehicle crashes. In order to address this important public health problem among young children and adolescents, CDC plans to conduct a national TBI educational initiative aimed at school nurses, school counselors, school psychologists, and school administrators. These interviews will be targeted because they are well positioned to address short- and long- Number of responses per respondent Average burden per response (in hours) 576 2 5/60 288 288 2 2 5/60 1.5 400 4 5/60 400 4 3/60 200 4 10/60 term issues related to TBI. CDC will develop educational materials and messages for these audiences, as well as tools for partners, to help improve the prevention, recognition, and management of TBI among school-aged children and adolescents. This audience can also work with schools to institute TBI specific back-to-school and returnto-play plans. As part of this research, school nurses, counselors, psychologists, and administrators will participate in professionally moderated individual indepth interviews. Information will be collected concerning respondents’ knowledge, attitudes, and beliefs about traumatic brain injury and where and how they get health information. A total of 96 potential respondents will be screened. From this number, 30 school professionals and 15 school administrators will be interviewed. The goal of these interviews is to understand needs of school professionals in the targeted audience for materials or tools related to TBI. The materials will provide guidance on how to prevent and recognize TBI in students. The content discussed in these interviews will be used to refine materials and develop future materials. There are no costs to respondents other than their time. The total estimated annual burden hours are 61.
