Submission for OMB Review;
Comment Request; A Generic
Submission for Theory Development
and Validation (NCI)
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 for review and
approval of the information collection
listed below. This proposed information
collection was previously published in
the Federal Register on August 2, 2011

(76 FR 46307) and allowed 60-days for
public comment. No public comment
were received. 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: A Generic
Submission for Theory Development
and Validation (NCI). Type of
Information Collection Request: NEW.
Need and Use of Information Collection:
In order to carry out NCI’s legislative
mandate to conduct and support
research with respect to the causes and
prevention of cancer, it is beneficial for
NCI, through initiatives in the
Behavioral Research Program (BRP), to
conduct and support behavioral
research informed by and informing
theory. Formative research in the area of
theory development and validation
would provide the basis for developing
effective cancer prevention and control
strategies, allow for a better
understanding of theoretical constructs
that influence decisions and actions
related to cancer, and ultimately
contribute to reducing the U.S. cancer
burden. Data collections that result from
this generic clearance would inform and
clarify the use of theory in BRPsupported initiatives and funding
announcements. Specifically, this
research would allow NCI to conduct
research to: (1) Identify psychological,
biobehavioral, demographic, and
individual difference predictors of
cancer prevention and control behaviors
and outcomes; (2) Develop and refine
integrative theories; (3) Identify and
observe theoretical and innovative
trends in cancer prevention and control
research; and (4) Determine feasibility
and usefulness of collaborative and
multidisciplinary approaches to cancer
prevention and control. Frequency of
Response: Will be determined by each
project. Affected Public: Individuals or
households; Businesses or other for
profit; Not-for-profit institutions;
Federal Government; State, Local, or
Tribal Government. Type of
Respondents: Members of the public
including, but not limited to health
professionals, physicians, and
researchers. Table 1 outlines the
estimated burden hours and cost
required for a three-year approval of this
generic submission.

Request For Comments: Written
comments and/or suggestions from the
public and affected agencies are invited
on one or more of the following points:
(1) Whether the proposed collection of
information is necessary for the proper
performance of the function of the
agency, including whether the
information will have practical utility;
(2) 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; (3) Ways to enhance
the quality, utility, and clarity of the
information to be collected; and (4)
Ways to minimize the burden of the
collection of information on those who
are to respond, including the use of
appropriate automated, electronic,
mechanical, or other technological
collection techniques or other forms of
information technology.
