Statistics (NCHS), Centers for Disease
Control and Prevention (CDC).
Background and Brief Description
Section 306 of the Public Health
Service (PHS) Act (42 U.S.C. 242k), as
amended, authorizes that the Secretary
of Health and Human Services (DHHS),
acting through NCHS, shall collect
statistics on ‘‘family formation, growth,
and dissolution,’’ as well as
‘‘determinants of health’’ and
‘‘utilization of health care’’ in the
United States. This three-year clearance
request includes the data collection in
2009–2012 for the continuous NSFG.
The major change in this revision is an
increase in the burden hours. This is
due to the fact that the 2006 clearance
contained a small pretest and two years
of the full survey. This submission
contains three years of the full survey
which causes an increase in burden. No
questionnaire changes are requested
through 2010; some limited changes
may be requested after that, to be
responsive to emerging public policy
issues.
The National Survey of Family
Growth (NSFG) was conducted
periodically between 1973 and 2002,
and continuously since 2006, by the
National Center for Health Statistics,
CDC. Each year, about 14,000
households are screened, with about
5,000 participants interviewed annually.
Participation in the NSFG is completely
voluntary and confidential. Interviews
average 60 minutes for males and 80
minutes for females. The response rate
since 2006 is about 75 percent for both
males and females.
The NSFG program produces
descriptive statistics which measure
factors associated with birth and
pregnancy rates, including
contraception, infertility, marriage,
divorce, and sexual activity, in the U.S.
population 15–44; and behaviors that
affect the risk of sexually transmitted
diseases (STD), including HIV, and the
medical care associated with
contraception, infertility, and pregnancy
and childbirth.
NSFG data users include the DHHS
programs that fund it, including CDC/
NCHS and seven others (The Eunice
Kennedy Shriver National Institute for
Child Health and Human Development
(NIH/NICHD); the Office of Population
Affairs (DHHS/OPA); the Office of the
Assistant Secretary for Planning and
Evaluation (DHHS/OASPE); the
Administrations for Children and
Families; the Children’s Bureau (DHHS/
ACF/CB); the CDC’s Division of HIV/
AIDS Prevention (CDC/DHAP); the
