the Director (OD) at the National
Institutes of Health (NIH).
Need and Use of Information
Collection: This cross-site evaluation
study will assess three desired
outcomes: (1) Changes in understanding
of career opportunities, confidence to
make career decisions, and attitudes
towards career opportunities; (2)
reduced time to desired, non-training,
non-terminal career opportunities, and
reduced time in postdoctoral positions;
and (3) creation/further development of
institutional infrastructure to continue
BEST-like activities. The first two
desired outcomes are for graduate
students and postdoctoral scientists
from the awardee institutions, the third
desired outcome is for the awardee
institutions. The findings will be used
to: (1) Identify and document best
practices in the field of biomedical
research training, (2) inform the NIH
Director, DPCPSI Director, and OSC
Director on the outcomes of the BEST
program, and (3) disseminate best
practices and outcomes of the BEST
program to biomedical training
programs and the research community.
OMB approval is requested for 3
years. There are no costs to respondents
other than their time. The total
estimated annualized burden hours are
8,106.

Zoonotic Infectious Diseases (NCEZID),
Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention (CDC).
Background and Brief Description
The Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention (CDC) Division of Global
Migration and Quarantine (DGMQ) is
requesting a revision of a currently
approved generic clearance to conduct
evaluation research. This will help CDC
plan and implement health
communication, education, and training
activities to improve health and prevent
the spread of disease. These activities
include communicating with
international travelers and other mobile
populations, training healthcare
providers, and educating public health
departments and other federal partners.
The information collection for which
the revision is sought is in accordance
with DGMQ’s mission to reduce
morbidity and mortality among
immigrants, refugees, travelers,
expatriates, and other globally mobile
populations, and to prevent the
introduction, transmission, or spread of
communicable diseases from foreign
countries into the United States. This
mission is supported by delegated legal
authorities outlined in the Public Health
Service (PHS) Act (42 U.S.C. 264) and
in regulations that are codified in 42
Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) parts
70 and 71, and 34.

Federal Register / Vol. 80, No. 50 / Monday, March 16, 2015 / Notices
Since receiving initial approval for
this generic, CDC has conducted five
information collections. These
information collections supported an
Evaluation of Adapted Health Education
Materials for LEP Spanish Speakers and
Indigenous Migrants; Evaluation of the
TravAlert Electronic Messaging System;
a project entitled Scan This:
Effectiveness of Quick Response Codes
for Engaging International Panel
Physicians; and two collections
involving CDC’s Check and Report
Ebola programs (CARE and CARE+)
(The CARE+ evaluation is still
underway as of the date of this notice).
In order, these projects evaluated
materials designed for specific
audiences to determine if CDC’s
methods for communicating key public
health messages were translated
appropriately for low-English
proficiency residents in the United
States, were effective in reaching
travelers in airports, were useful in
making CDC’s immigration medical
exam technical instructions more
accessible, and were helpful in reaching
individuals and assessing their
knowledge, attitudes, beliefs, and
behaviors concerning enhanced
screening for Ebola at U.S. ports of entry
and follow-up under active monitoring.
Approval of this revision of the
generic information collection will
allow DGMQ to continue to collect, in
an expedited manner, information about
the knowledge, attitudes, and behaviors
of key audiences (such as refugees,
immigrants, migrants, international
travelers, travel industry partners,
healthcare providers, non-profit
agencies, customs brokers and
forwarders, schools, state and local
health departments) to help improve
and inform these activities during both
routine and emergency public health
events. This generic OMB clearance will
help DGMQ continue to refine these
efforts in a timely manner, and will be
especially valuable for communication
activities that must occur quickly in
response to public health emergencies.
DGMQ staff will use a variety of data
collection methods for this proposed
project: Interviews, focus groups,
surveys, and pre/post-tests. Depending
on the research questions and audiences
involved, data may be gathered inperson, by telephone, online, or using
some combination of these formats. Data
may be collected in quantitative and/or
qualitative forms. Numerous audience
variables will be assessed under the
auspices of this generic OMB clearance.
These include, but are not limited to,
knowledge, attitudes, beliefs, behavioral
intentions, practices, behaviors, skills,
self-efficacy, and information needs and
sources. Insights gained from evaluation
research will assist in the development,
refinement, implementation, and
demonstration of outcomes and impact
of communication, education, and
training activities.
DGMQ estimates involvement of
37,500 respondents and 17,835 hours of
burden for evaluation research activities
each year. The collected information
will not impose a cost burden on the
respondents beyond that associated
with their time to provide the required
data.
