BILLING CODE 4164–01–P
DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND
HUMAN SERVICES
National Institutes of Health
Submission for OMB Review; 30-day
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
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 July 14, 2014,
SUMMARY:
Vol. 79, page 40763 and allowed 60days 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.
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: Rebecca A. Ferrer, Division of
Cancer Control and Population
Sciences, 9609 Medical Center Dr.,
Room 3E114, Bethesda, MD 20892 or
call non-toll-free number 240–276–6914
or Email your request, including your
address to: ferrerra@mail.nih.gov.
Formal requests for additional plans and
instruments must be requested in
writing.
Proposed Collection: A Generic
Submission for Theory Development
and Validation (NCI), Revision, National
Cancer Institute (NCI), National
Institutes of Health (NIH).
Need and Use of Information
Collection: The National Cancer
Institute is requesting approval for this
revised generic clearance to conduct
formative research related to behavioral
science theory development and
validation for the next three years.
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. Sub-studies proposed under
this generic clearance would involve
methodological testing and a standard
set of research approaches, including
surveys (internet, phone, and paperand-pencil) and focus groups.
Respondents would include individuals
in the general public, recruited through
established online panels or internet/
newspaper advertisements.
Development of each study or survey
would involve consulting with NCI
scientists as well as experts from the
behavioral science research community.
OMB approval is requested for 3
years. There are no costs to respondents
other than their time. The total
estimated burden is 2,000 hours per
year.
