Proposed Collection: Topic-based
Studies for the Population Assessment
of Tobacco and Health (PATH) Study,
0925-New, National Institute on Drug
Abuse (NIDA), National Institutes of
Health (NIH).
Need and Use of Information
Collection: The PATH study will
establish a population-based framework
for the tracking of potential behavioral

changes in tobacco products in the U.S.,
including those enacted under the
Family Smoking Prevention and
Tobacco Control Act (FSPTCA) by the
Food and Drug Administration (FDA).
NIDA is requesting generic approval
from OMB for topic-based studies to
rapidly address new and emerging
issues related to PATH Study objectives.
These topic-based studies will serve two
primary purposes: (1) To complement
and supplement the main PATH Study;
and (2) to inform future content changes
to the main PATH Study. These studies
will add depth and context to specific
issues and topics already being
addressed in the main PATH Study and
will help inform decisions about
potential new topics to include in the
next or a future annual wave of data
collection. Data collection methods to
be used in these topic-based studies
include: in-person and telephone
surveys; web and smartphone/mobile
phone surveys; and focus group and
individual in-depth qualitative
interviews. Biospecimens may also be
collected from adults.
OMB approval is requested for 3
years. There are no costs to respondents
other than their time. The total
estimated annualized burden hours are
29,750.
