DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND

Submission for OMB Review; 30-Day
Comment Request, Questionnaire
Cognitive Interviewing and Pretesting
(NCI)
Under the provisions of
Section 3507(a)(1)(D) of the Paperwork
Reduction Act of 1995, 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
SUMMARY:

Federal Register / Vol. 79, No. 80 / Friday, April 25, 2014 / Notices
the Federal Register on January 3, 2014,
(Vol. 79, p. 402) and allowed 60-days for
public comment. No public comments
were received. The purpose of this
notice is to allow an additional 30 days
for public comment. The National
Cancer Institute (NCI), 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.
Direct Comments To OMB: Written
comments and/or suggestions regarding
the item(s) contained in this notice,
especially regarding the estimated
public burden and associated response
time, should be directed to the: Office
of Management and Budget, Office of
Regulatory Affairs, OIRA_submission@
omb.eop.gov or by fax to 202–395–6974,
Attention: NIH Desk Officer.
DATES: Comment Due Date: Comments
regarding this information collection are
best assured of having their full effect if
received within 30-days of the date of
this publication.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: To
obtain a copy of the data collection
plans and instruments or request more
information on the proposed project
contact: Gordon Willis, Division of
Cancer Control and Population
Sciences, 9609 Medical Center Drive,
Rm 3E358, Bethesda, MD 20892–9762 or
call non-toll-free number 240–276–6788
or Email your request, including your
address to: willis@mail.nih.gov. Formal
requests for additional plans and
instruments must be requested in
writing.
Proposed Collection: Questionnaire
Cognitive Interviewing and Pretesting
(NCI), 0925–0589, Revision, National
Cancer Institute (NCI), National
Institutes of Health (NIH).
Need and Use of Information
Collection: For many surveys and selfreport-based data collection efforts, it is
advantageous to the government if
development follows a pretesting
sequence equivalent to that used at
National Center for Health Statistics or
the Census Bureau. For example, the
Health Information National Trends
Survey (HINTS: OMB No. 0925–0538)
has undergone multiple cycles of
cognitive testing to refine both the
questionnaire, and supporting materials
such as advance letters and brochures.
The types of activities covered by this
Generic request include: (1) Survey
material development and pretesting
based on cognitive interviewing
methodology and use of focus groups,
(2) Research on the cognitive aspects of
survey methodology, (3) Research on
computer-user interface design for
computer-assisted instruments, also
known as Usability Testing, (4) Pilot
Household interviews are pilot tests
(either personal, telephone, or Webbased) conducted with respondents
using professional field interviewers;
and (5) Formative research that depends
on the use of interviewing techniques to
develop products such as research
priorities, or expert consensus on best
practices. Additionally, formative
research has been increasingly used to
develop new data collection
instruments using psychometric
procedures, including Computerized
Adaptive Testing (CAT). Test-retest
reliability testing can also be used as a
type of formative research in the
development of questionnaires, software
applications that depend on self-report,
and other measurement instruments.
OMB approval is requested for 3
years. There are no costs to respondents
other than their time. The total
estimated annualized burden hours are
3,600.

which were sent to the requestors. One
of these requestors commented in
support of FDA’s co-sponsorship with
NCI of the TUS–CPS and NCI/NIH
working with sister agencies and HHS to
harmonize and coordinate tobacco use
information across various federal
surveys. It further stated the importance
of this kind of HHS evaluation with
sister agencies, made specific
suggestions what this should include,
and concluded with offering assistance.
