SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Abstract
The U.S. Census Bureau is requesting
clearance for the collection of data
concerning the Fertility Supplement to
be conducted in conjunction with the
June 2010 CPS. The Census Bureau
sponsors the supplement questions,
which were previously collected in June
2008, and have been asked periodically
since 1971.
This survey provides information
used mainly by government and private
analysts to project future population
growth, to analyze child spacing, and to
aid policymakers in their decisions
affected by changes in family size and
composition. Past studies have
discovered noticeable changes in the
patterns of fertility rates and the timing
of the first birth. Potential needs for
government assistance, such as aid to
families with dependent children, child
care, and maternal health care for single
parent households, can be estimated
using CPS characteristics matched with
fertility data.
II. Method of Collection
The fertility information will be
collected by both personal visit and
telephone interviews in conjunction
with the regular June CPS interviewing.
All interviews are conducted using
computer-assisted interviewing.
III. Data
OMB Number: 0607–0610.
Form Number: There are no forms.
We conduct all interviewing on
computers.
Type of Review: Regular.
Affected Public: Individuals or
Households.
Estimated Number of Respondents:
30,000.
Estimated Time per Response: 30
seconds.
Estimated Total Annual Burden
Hours: 250.
Estimated Total Annual Cost: There
are no costs to the respondents other
than their time to answer the CPS
questions.
