In compliance with the requirement
of Section 3506(c)(2)(A) of the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 for
opportunity for public comment on
proposed data collection projects, the
Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention (CDC) will publish periodic
summaries of proposed projects. To
request more information on the
proposed projects or to obtain a copy of
the data collection plans and
instruments, call 404–639–5960 and
send comments to Maryam I. Daneshvar,
CDC Acting Reports Clearance Officer,
1600 Clifton Road, MS–D74, Atlanta,
GA 30333 or send an e-mail to
omb@cdc.gov.
Comments are invited on: (a) Whether
the proposed collection of information
is necessary for the proper performance
of the functions of the agency, including
whether the information shall have
practical utility; (b) the accuracy of the
agency’s estimate of the burden of the
proposed collection of information; (c)
ways to enhance the quality, utility, and
clarity of the information to be
collected; and (d) ways to minimize the
burden of the collection of information
on respondents, including through the
11,447
not found evidence for the effectiveness
of screening to improve outcomes for
women exposed to IPV.
Based on the recommendations of an
expert panel convened, CDC is
proposing to conduct a randomized
controlled trial to provide this evidence.
The trial will recruit 2675 women in a
network of women’s health clinics.
Women attending these clinics tend to
be African American and of lower
socioeconomic status. For this study,
women will be randomly allocated to
one of three arms: (1) Screened for IPV,
and if disclosing IPV, provided
information on available IPV services;
(2) not screened and all receiving
information on available IPV services; or
(3) a control group that will not be
screened nor receive information on
available IPV services. All three arms
will be assessed with a self-report
measure for disability, quality of life,
and utilization of health services at
baseline utilizing an audio-computerassisted structured interview (A–CASI)
and at a 12-month follow-up utilizing a
computerized-assisted telephone
interview (CATI). The results from this
Randomized Controlled Trial, will guide
CDC as well as other governmental
agencies, professional and health care
organizations, and women’s advocate
groups in formulating its
recommendations and policies
regarding routine screening. A pretest
with 196 women in a women’s health
clinic was conducted to test the
enrollment, randomization, interview,
and follow-up procedures; and provide
estimates for outcome measures. Based
on the results of the pretest, CDC has
revised the measures, procedures, and
sample size requirements for the
Randomized Controlled Trial. There are
no costs to respondents other than their
time to participate in the survey.

Background and Brief Description
Intimate partner violence (IPV) is a
prevalent problem with serious health
consequences that include death,
physical injury, increased rates of
physical illness, posttraumatic stress,
increased psychological distress,
depression, substance abuse, and
suicide. Some studies suggest that abuse
perpetrated by intimate partners tends
to be repetitive and escalates in severity
over time. This research has been the
basis for promoting early diagnosis and
intervention.
Health care providers appear to be
well situated to identify IPV. Women
come into contact with health care
services routinely for a number of
reasons such as prenatal care, family
planning, cancer screening, and well
baby care. Women experiencing IPV
make more visits to emergency
departments, primary care facilities, and
mental health agencies than non-abused
women. Considering the magnitude and
severity of IPV, and the potential role
health care providers could play in
reducing its serious consequences,
numerous professional and health care
organizations have recommended
routine screening of women for IPV in
primary care settings. However, various
systematic reviews of the literature have

CDC Web site and Communication
Channels Usability Evaluation (OMB
No. 0925–0735, Exp. 3/31/2010)—
Revision—National Center for Health
Marketing (NCHM), Centers for Disease
Control and Prevention (CDC.)
Background and Brief Description
DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND
HUMAN SERVICES
VerDate Nov<24>2008
Proposed Project
Executive Order 12862 directs Federal
agencies that provide significant
services directly to the public to survey
customers to determine the kind and
quality of services they need and their
level of satisfaction with existing
services. The Centers for Disease
Control and Prevention (CDC) seeks
approval to conduct usability surveys
on CDC Web sites, social media, mobilebased or other electronic
communication channels hosting CDC
content on an ongoing basis.
It is important for CDC to ensure that
health information, interventions, and
programs at CDC are based on sound
science, objectivity, and continuous
customer input. The CDC Web sites,
social media, mobile-based or other
electronic communication channels
hosting CDC content must be designed
to be easy to use, easy to access, and
effective providers of health information
and resources to our target audiences.
CDC is requesting renewal of our
existing 3-year generic clearance, with
revisions, in order to carry out its
mission. This revised proposal requests
clearance for usability surveys on the
Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention (CDC) Web site and, in
addition, social media, mobile-based or
other electronic communication
channels hosting CDC content. With the
previous Usability Evaluation package,
various groups around the agency were
able to conduct useful surveys assessing
the usability of a variety of CDC Web
sites. These surveys covered important
CDC programs and topics, such as
Seasonal Flu, Tuberculosis, HIV, STDs,
and Chronic Diseases. The CDC.gov
Homepage and other CDC Web sites
were redesigned based on usability
surveys conducted within this package

Frm 00027
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
and the resulting designs improved
performance for Web site users and won
numerous awards, both within and
outside of, the Federal government
space. The next step is to continue
usability surveys on more Web sites,
staying abreast of changes in target
audience needs and online behavior as
well as survey users of CDC social
media, mobile-based or other electronic
communication channels hosting CDC
content that currently exist or will
emerge during the life of this package.
CDC is currently using mobile Web
sites, text messaging, online quizzes,
widgets, podcasts, eCards, online video,
motion graphics, blogs, syndicated
content, and other communication
channels and will continue to explore
other channels which provide CDC
content to target audiences when,
where, and how they want and need it.
As new channels emerge, CDC will
explore using them to deliver its
content.
Usability surveys determine how well
CDC’s Web site, social media, mobilebased or other electronic
communication channels hosting CDC
content are performing. Observation and
data collection on how users interact
with the Web site or other electronic
communication channels hosting CDC
content are critical in ensuring that
users can find information, that the Web
site or other electronic communication
channels are easy to use and designed
to meet the needs of specific audiences.
This package requests clearance for two
types of surveys: Remote or in person.
Remote surveys will collect data about
how participants interact with CDC’s
Web site, social media, mobile-based or
other electronic communication
channels hosting CDC content. Users
will take the survey at their home or
work computers. In person surveys will
have participants take the survey in a
central location where their data can be
captured electronically, as with the
remote survey, but also the participants
can be directly observed. The direct
observation of in person surveys allows
for enhanced collection of information
