Comment Request; Food Reporting
Comparison Study (FORCS) and Food
and Eating Assessment Study (FEAST)
(NCI)
SUMMARY: Under the provisions of
Section 3507(a)(1)(D) of the Paperwork
Reduction Act of 1995, the National
Cancer Institute (NCI), the National
Institutes of Health (NIH), has submitted
to the Office of Management and Budget
(OMB) a request to review and approve
Participants and
study
the information collection listed below.
This proposed information collection
was previously published in the Federal
Register on April 15, 2011 (76 FR
21383). One public comment was
received on April 15 requesting a copy
of the data collection package. The
submission was sent to the requestor on
April 21. The purpose of this notice is
to allow an additional 30 days for public
comment. The National Institutes of
Health may not conduct or sponsor, and
the respondent is not required to
respond to, an information collection
that has been extended, revised, or
implemented on or after October 1,
1995, unless it displays a currently valid
OMB control number.
Proposed Collection: Title: Food
Reporting Comparison Study (FORCS)
and Food and Eating Assessment Study
(FEAST) (NCI). Type of Information
Collection Request: Extension. Need and
Use of Information Collection: The title
of this collection was previously, ‘‘24Hour Dietary Recall Method
Comparison and the National Cancer
Institute (NCI) Observational Feeding
Studies.’’ The objective of the two
studies is to compare the performance of
the newly developed computerized
Number of respondents

Frequency of
response
Automated Self-Administered 24-Hour
Recall (ASA24) approach to collecting
24-hour recall (24HR) data with the
current standard, the intervieweradministered Automated Multiple Pass
Method (AMPM). The ultimate goal is to
determine to what extent the new
automated instrument can be used
instead of the more expensive
interviewer-administered instrument in
the collection of dietary intake data.
Frequency of Response: Twice. Affected
Public: Individuals. Type of
Respondents: For the FORCS study,
approximately 1,200 adult members
from three health maintenance
organization plans (in Minnesota,
California, and Michigan) between ages
20 and 70 years. For the FEAST study,
approximately 90 adult residents from
the Washington, DC metropolitan area
between ages 20 and 70 years. The
annual reporting burden is estimated at
866 hours (see table below). This
amounts to an estimated 2598 burden
hours over the 3-year data collection
period with a total cost to the
respondents $54,293. There are no
Capital costs, Operating costs, and/or
Maintenance costs to report.

Studies for the National Children’s
Study
SUMMARY: 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
National Institute of Child Health and
Human Development (NICHD), the
National Institutes of Health (NIH) will
publish periodic summaries of proposed
projects to be submitted to the Office of
Management and Budget (OMB) for
review and approval. This proposed
information collection was previously
published in the Federal Register on
May 2, 2011, pages 24497–24498, and
allowed 60 days for public comment. No
comments were received. The purpose
of this notice is to allow an additional
30 days for public comment.
Proposed Collection
Title: Neuro-developmental and
Psycho-Social Measures Formative
Research Studies for the National
Children’s Study (NCS).
Type of Information Collection
Request: Generic Clearance.
Need and Use of Information
Collection: The Children’s Health Act of
2000 (Pub. L. 106–310) states:
(a) Purpose.—It is the purpose of this
section to authorize the National Institute of
Child Health and Human Development* to
conduct a national longitudinal study of
environmental influences (including
physical, chemical, biological, and
psychosocial) on children’s health and
development.
(b) In General.—The Director of the
National Institute of Child Health and
Human Development* shall establish a
consortium of representatives from
appropriate Federal agencies (including the
Centers for Disease Control and Prevention,
the Environmental Protection Agency) to—
(1) Plan, develop, and implement a
prospective cohort study, from birth to
adulthood, to evaluate the effects of both
chronic and intermittent exposures on child
health and human development; and
(2) Investigate basic mechanisms of
developmental disorders and environmental
factors, both risk and protective, that
influence health and developmental
processes.
(c) Requirement.—The study under
subsection (b) shall—
(1) Incorporate behavioral, emotional,
educational, and contextual consequences to
enable a complete assessment of the physical,
chemical, biological, and psychosocial
environmental influences on children’s wellbeing;
(2) Gather data on environmental
influences and outcomes on diverse
populations of children, which may include
the consideration of prenatal exposures; and
(3) Consider health disparities among
children, which may include the
consideration of prenatal exposures.
To fulfill the requirements of the
Children’s Health Act, the results of
formative research will be used to
maximize the efficiency (measured by
scientific robustness, participant and
infrastructure burden, and cost) of tools
to assess language, behavior, and
neurodevelopment, psychosocial stress,
and health literacy and thereby inform
data collection methodologies for the
National Children’s Study (NCS)
Vanguard and Main Studies. With this
submission, the NCS seeks to obtain
OMB’s generic clearance to conduct
formative research featuring neurodevelopmental and psycho-social
measures.
The results from these formative
research projects will inform the
feasibility (scientific robustness),
acceptability (burden to participants
and study logistics) and cost of NCS
Vanguard and Main Study neurodevelopmental and psycho-social
measures in a manner that minimizes
public information collection burden
compared to burden anticipated if these
projects were incorporated directly into
either the NCS Vanguard or Main Study.
Frequency of Response: Annual [As
needed on an on-going and concurrent
basis].
Affected Public: Members of the
public, researchers, practitioners, and
other health professionals.
Type of Respondents: Women of
child-bearing age, infants, children,
fathers, community leaders, members,
and organizations, health care facilities
and professionals, public health,
environmental, social and cognitive
science professional organizations and
practitioners, hospital administrators,
cultural and faith-based centers, and
schools and child care organizations.
These include both persons enrolled in
the NCS Vanguard Study and their peers
who are not participating in the NCS
Vanguard Study.
Annual reporting burden: See Table 1.
The annualized cost to respondents is
estimated at: $540,000 (based on $10 per
hour). There are no Capital Costs to
report. There are no Operating or
Maintenance Costs to report.
