srobinson on DSKHWCL6B1PROD with NOTICES
The Department of Justice (DOJ),
National Institute of Justice (NIJ) and
Office of Justice Programs (OJP) will be
submitting the following information
collection request to the Office of
Management and Budget (OMB) for
review and approval in accordance with
the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995.
The proposed information collection is
published to obtain comments from the
public and affected agencies. Comments
are encouraged and will be accepted for
‘‘sixty days’’ until May 16, 2011. This
process is conducted in accordance with
5 CFR 1320.10.
If you have comments especially on
the estimated public burden or
associated response time, suggestions,
or need a copy of the proposed
information collection instrument with
instructions or additional information,
please contact Carrie Mulford, National
Institute of Justice, 810 7th Street NW.,
Washington, DC 20531.
Written comments concerning this
information collection should be sent to
the Office of Information and Regulatory
Affairs, Office of Management and
Budget, Attn: DOJ Desk Officer. The best
way to ensure your comments are
received is to e-mail them to
oira_submission@omb.eop.gov or fax
them to 202–395–7285. All comments
should reference the 8 digit OMB
number for the collection or the title of
the collection. If you have questions
concerning the collection, please call
Carrie Mulford at 202–307–2959 or the
DOJ Desk Officer at 202–395–3176.
Written comments and suggestions
from the public and affected agencies
concerning the proposed collection of
information are encouraged. Your
comments should address one or more
of the following four points:
—Evaluate whether the proposed
collection of information is necessary
for the proper performance of the
functions of the agency, including
whether the information will have
practical utility;
—Evaluate the accuracy of the agency’s
estimate of the burden of the
proposed collection of information,
including the validity of the
methodology and assumptions used;
—Enhance the quality, utility, and
clarity of the information to be
collected; and
—Minimize the burden of the collection
of information on those who are to
respond, including through the use of
appropriate automated, electronic,
mechanical, or other technological
collection techniques or other forms
of information technology, e.g.,
permitting electronic submission of
responses.
Overview of This Information
Collection
(1) Type of Information Collection:
New collection.
(2) Title of the Form/Collection: Teen
Dating Relationships: Opportunities for
Youth To Define What’s Healthy and
Unhealthy.
(3) Agency form number, if any, and
the applicable component of the
Department of Justice sponsoring the
collection: Form Number: ATF F 3312.1
and ATF F 3312.2. National Institute of
Justice, Office of Justice Programs.
(4) Affected public who will be asked
or required to respond, as well as a brief
abstract: Primary: Youth, ages 11–22
and adult practitioners, advocates and
researchers in professions related to
youth and youth relationships. A recent
review of the teen dating violence
research indicated that youth are rarely
involved in research designed to better
understand this issue. The purpose of
this data collection is to better
Preteens
(11–13)
Task
Teens
(14–18)
understand how youth conceptualize
healthy and unhealthy dating
relationships by intentionally involving
youth in the research process. In the
first phase of the study, concept
mapping will be used to create a visual
representation of the ways youth and
adults perceive teen dating
relationships. Concept mapping is a
well-documented method of applied
research that makes explicit, implicit
theoretical models that can be used for
planning and action. The process
requires respondents to brainstorm a set
of statements relevant to the topic of
interest (‘‘brainstorming’’ task),
individually sort these statements into
piles based on perceived similarity
(‘‘sorting’’ task), rate each statement on
one or more scales (‘‘rating’’ task), and
interpret the graphical representation
that result from several multivariate
analyses. The collection of data for all
concept mapping activities will be
facilitated via a dedicated project Web
site. The second phase of the study
includes a series of eight face-to-face
facilitated discussions with relevant
stakeholder groups, practitioners,
researchers and youth. Guiding
questions and discussion prompts,
derived from the concept mapping
results, will be used to gather
information from the respondents on the
meaning and potential use of the
concept mapping results. This input
will be aggregated and linked to the
emerging conceptual framework that
will result in a better understanding of
adolescent relationship features,
including the range of healthy,
unhealthy, and abusive characteristics,
from the standpoint of youth, and
determine how prevention and
intervention efforts can effectively target
relationship characteristics related to
abusive behavior.
(5) An estimate of the total number of
respondents and the amount of time
estimated for an average respondent to
respond: It is estimated that 400
respondents total will participate in the
concept mapping phase of this
collection, and that 80 respondents total
will participate in the facilitated
discussions. The table below shows the
estimated number of respondents for
each portion of the collection:

The brainstorming task will take
respondents 5–10 minutes to complete.
The sorting task will take respondents
approximately 30–60 minutes to
complete. The rating task will take
respondents approximately 30 minutes
to complete. None of these tasks will
require participants to complete in one
sitting; rather, participants can return to
work on task completion as often as
they chose, until the task deadline.
Respondents will have approximately 4
weeks to brainstorm and approximately
6 weeks to sort and rate. Facilitated
discussions will require approximately
4 hours of respondents’ time.
(6) An estimate of the total public
burden (in hours) associated with the
collection: There are an estimated 686
annual total public burden hours
associated with this collection.
