process paper records. The application
process includes the following:
Submission of responses to the
questions in the online application;
submission of academic transcripts and
letters of recommendation; a review by
selected programmatic staff and panel
member experts; selection of qualified
candidates for interview; interview of
candidates; and selection of trainees for
the fellowship programs.
The online application questions ask
for academic history, professional
experience, names of references, and
description of professional goals. The
application questions and data collected
are necessary to the application process
to determine programmatic eligibility
and to ensure that the most highly
qualified candidates are chosen for the
training programs.
The alumni directory will allow CDC
to maintain a current, centralized
electronic database. Questions include
updates to include email and other
contact information, professional
responsibilities, medical certifications,
qualifications, and scientific skills in
the event that it becomes necessary to
contact alumni possessing missioncritical skills to meet a national public
health emergency or an urgent public
health need. Alumni data will also be
used by CDC to document the impact of
the fellowships on the career paths of
participants, and thus, on the science
and practice of public health, and by the
alumni for maintaining their
professional networks for finding jobs,
staffing jobs, collaborating, and
interacting with their fellow alumni.
Alumni will have two options for the
level of information they wish to be
visible to other alumni of their
fellowship. They will have the option of
displaying only their name, fellowship
year, and professional information or all
of their information. The default is to
display only their name, fellowship
year, and professional information. This
information is already in the public
domain.
The annual burden table has been
updated to reflect an increase in the
number of fellowships participating in
FMS.
The estimated annualized burden for
all nine fellowship applications is 748
hours (1,122 respondents × 40 minutes
for completing the application), and the
estimated annualized burden for all
twelve directories is 114 hours (454
respondents × 15 minutes for updating
their information). Note: Some alumni
are deceased or cannot be located.
Response burden assumes response
from an individual responding alumnus,
on average, every 3 years (which is
likely an overestimate of frequency).
There is no cost to respondents other
than their time. The total estimated
annualized burden hours are 862.

Background and Brief Description
Among the goals of the Centers for
Disease Control and Prevention (CDC),
National Center for Injury Prevention
and Control (NCIPC) is to reduce the
prevalence of violence among youth.
Several important priorities included in
the Center’s published research agenda
focus on studying how physical
environments influence behavior and
risk for violence. The CDC has
developed an observational tool called
the Crime Prevention Through
Environmental Design (CPTED) School
Assessment (CSA) to assess the extent to
which the physical characteristics of
schools are consistent with Crime
Prevention Through Environmental
Design (CPTED) principles. The
proposed research will allow an
assessment of the validity of the CSA by
examining the extent to which the CSA
subscales, total CSA scores, and CPTED
principles are related to fear and
violence, and related variables. If the
CSA tool is shown to measure
characteristics of the school
environment that are associated with
fear and violence-related behaviors in
E:\FR\FM\17DEN1.SGM
17DEN1
78997
Federal Register / Vol. 75, No. 242 / Friday, December 17, 2010 / Notices
school, then it may be used as the basis
for research, design, and evaluation of
interventions for schools seeking to
prevent or reduce the occurrence of
crime and violence by providing
information related to (re)designing
physical features of the environment
and changing policies and procedures
related to using the school environment.
In addition, an exploratory purpose of
this research is to determine whether
the CSA items can be divided reliably
into supposedly distinct variables
reflecting each of the CPTED principles.
If we produce practical support for the
assessment of these ‘‘CPTED variables,’’
then we will also assess validity by
determining whether these variables are
logically related to our measures of fear,
violence and climate in schools.
Survey data from 75 students (25 each
from 6th, 7th, and 8th grades) per school
site will be collected from 50 middle
schools selected and recruited from 13
school districts in the metro-Atlanta,
Georgia area (approximately 3,750 total
student participants), in addition to the
observational (CSA) data collection. The
student survey will assess variables
such as school climate, and actual and
perceived levels of school violence at
each school. In addition, archival/
administrative data will be collected
from each of the 50 schools on a School
Site Data Form providing information
on neighborhood and school
characteristics from various sources
(e.g., school site information reported by
the school administrator, school district
data available on the Web, U.S. Census
data, and school disciplinary records).
There are no costs to respondents other
than their time.
