organizations, and private public health
organizations.
FMS provides an efficient and
effective way for processing fellowship
application data, selecting qualified
candidates, maintaining a current
alumni database, documenting the
impact of the fellowships on alumni
careers, and generating reports. This
proposed revision will provide a secure
site within this existing electronic
system for designated employees of
public health agencies and
organizations to submit fellowship
assignment proposals electronically.
Designated employees of public
health agencies or organizations will
answer a standardized set of core
questions within FMS about the
proposed assignments, including the
type of public health agency or
organization submitting the proposal;
proposed fellow activities, including
training and opportunities for service
and collaboration; and how the fellow
will be supported, including the type
and extent of mentorship and
supervision the fellow will receive.
This revision enhances FMS to
include a function that will result in a
standardized process for submitting and
reviewing host assignment proposals
across fellowships. The electronic
assignment proposal process that FMS
provides optimizes the matching of
qualified fellowship candidates with
host sites and will result in an optimal
fit between fellows and their
assignments—ultimately leading to
long-term employment and sustained
public health capacity of state and local
health departments and other nonfederal public health agencies and
organizations.
The annual burden table has been
updated to reflect the number of
respondents from nonfederal public
health agencies or organizations that
submit assignment proposals to host
fellows. 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 annual burden hours are
1201.

Proposed Project
Evaluation of the National Tobacco
Prevention and Control Public
Education Campaign—New—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) requests OMB
approval to collect information needed
for evaluating the CDC’s National
Tobacco Prevention and Control Public
Education Campaign (The Campaign).
This campaign, which is expected to
launch in February/March 2012, is the
first Federally-funded media campaign
in the U.S. that describes the harms
from smoking and will feature televised
advertisements that will air nationally
along with complementary ads on radio,
the Internet, in print, and other forms of
media.
CDC plans to conduct an initial
baseline survey of adults before the
launch of The Campaign and a
longitudinal follow-up survey of those
participants approximately three to four
months later. Information will be
collected about adult smokers’
awareness of and exposure to campaign
advertisements, and about their
knowledge, attitudes, and beliefs related
to smoking and secondhand smoke. In

addition, the survey will measure
behaviors related to smoking cessation
and behaviors related to interpersonal
communication about smoking.
Information will also be collected on
demographic variables including age,
sex, race, education, income, primary
language, and marital status.
Data from this survey will be used to
estimate the extent to which smokers
and non-smokers in the U.S. were
exposed to The Campaign and to
examine the statistical relationships
between adults’ exposure to The
Campaign and changes in outcome
variables of interest including attempts
to quit smoking.
Information will be collected through
on-line questionnaires involving adult
smokers and non-smokers in the U.S.,
ages 18–54. Respondents who are
smokers will be recruited from two
sources: a probability sample drawn
from the Knowledge Networks
KnowledgePanel®, a panel that uses
address-based postal mail sampling to
generate a probability-based online
panel of U.S. adults, and a supplemental
sample from SSI, a leading provider of
online sampling in the U.S.
Respondents who are non-smokers will
be recruited from Knowledge Networks.
The target number of complete pre-/
post-campaign questionnaires for
smokers is 5,000. The target number of

509
Federal Register / Vol. 77, No. 3 / Thursday, January 5, 2012 / Notices
complete pre-/post-campaign
questionnaires for non-smokers is 2,000.
To obtain the target number of
complete pre-/post-campaign responses,
approximately 34,660 respondents will
be contacted through an initial
screening and consent process. The
estimated burden per response is two
minutes.
An estimated 11,600 smokers will be
recruited to complete the Smoker
Baseline Questionnaire in order to yield
5,000 completed post-campaign Smoker
Follow-Up Questionnaires. An
estimated 2,666 non-smokers will be
recruited to complete the Non-smoker
Baseline Questionnaire in order to yield
2,000 completed post-campaign Nonsmoker Follow-up Questionnaires. For
both respondent groups, the estimated
burden per response is 25 minutes for
each baseline questionnaire. In addition,
the estimated burden per response is 25
minutes for each post-campaign (followup) questionnaire.
Data from this information collection
will be used to estimate awareness of
and exposure to The Campaign among
smokers and non-smokers nationally as
well as among the planned subset of
smokers in high-delivery geographic
areas for The Campaign. These estimates
will take the form of self-reported ad
recognition and recall estimates that
assess basic exposure as well as
frequency of ad exposure. Data from this
information collection will also be used
to examine statistical associations
between exposure to The Campaign and
pre-post changes in specific outcomes of
interest which will include knowledge,
attitudes, beliefs and intentions related
to smoking and cessation as well as
behavioral outcomes including quit
attempts and cigarette consumption.
OMB approval is requested for one
year. There are no costs to respondents
other than their time. The total
estimated burden hours are 10,015.
