Proposed Project

    National Youth Tobacco Surveys (NYTS) 2012-2014--Revision (Exp 
Date: 1/31/2012)--National Center for Chronic Disease Prevention and 
Health Promotion (NCCDPHP), Centers for Disease Control and Prevention 
(CDC).

Background and Brief Description

    The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has 
periodically collected information about tobacco use among adolescents 
since 2004 (National Youth Tobacco Survey (NYTS) 2004, 2006, 2009, 
2011, OMB No. 0920-0621, exp. 12/31/2011). At present, the NYTS is the 
most comprehensive source of nationally representative tobacco data 
among students in grades 9-12, and the only source of such data for 
students in grades 6-8. The NYTS has provided national estimates of 
tobacco use behaviors, information about exposure to pro- and anti-
tobacco influences, and information about racial and ethnic disparities 
in tobacco-related topics. Information collected through the NYTS is 
used to identify trends over time, to inform the development of tobacco 
cessation programs for youth, and to evaluate the effectiveness of 
existing interventions and programs.
    CDC is requesting OMB approval to conduct additional cycles of the 
NYTS in the spring of 2012, 2013, and 2014. The survey will be 
conducted among nationally representative samples of students attending 
public and private schools in grades 6-12, and will be administered to 
students as an optically scannable, eight-page booklet of multiple-
choice questions. Information supporting the NYTS also will be 
collected from state-, district-, and school-level administrators and 
teachers. During the 2012-2014 timeframe, a number of changes will be 
incorporated that reflect CDC's ongoing collaboration with FDA and the 
need to measure progress toward meeting strategic goals established by 
the Family Smoking Prevention and Tobacco Control Act. Information 
collection will occur annually and will include a number of new 
questions, as well as increased representation of minority youth.
    Results of the NYTS will continue to be used for public health 
program planning and evaluation. Information collected through the NYTS 
is also expected to provide multiple measures and data for monitoring 
progress on six of the 20 tobacco-related objectives for Healthy People 
2020.
    OMB approval is requested for three years. The estimated average 
burden per response is 45 minutes, and the total estimated annualized 
burden hours are 18,862. There are no costs to respondents other than 
their time.
