Proposed Project Update seat belt fit recommendation for children—New—National Center for Injury Prevention and Control (NCIPC), Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). Background and Brief Description The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) is seeking OMB approval to conduct a new information collection for a study entitled, ‘‘Update Seat Belt Fit Recommendation for Children,’’ over a period of three years. CDC seeks to measure how seat belts fit children in vehicles with and without booster seats. The scientific basis for the current height recommendation for when children can transition from using a booster seat to just a seat belt is from a 1993 study that is outdated (Durbin et al., 2011; Reed et al., 2013). The goal of the new collection is to use the latest technology among the largest sample of children to date to help inform when children can safely transition from using a booster seat with a seat belt to using only a seat belt. Findings from this data collection will inform CDC’s child passenger safety recommendation regarding when children can safely transition from using a booster seat with the seat belt to using only the seat belt. This study will also provide information on ways to further reduce motor vehicle-related injuries and deaths among children. Prospective study participants will be children aged 6–12 years old in the greater District of Columbia (DC) area. Parents of prospective study participants will answer a series of screening questions to determine eligibility. Children who meet the screening criteria and are willing to participate will complete an in-person measurement session. Data will be analyzed using descriptive statistics, mean, standard deviation, and logistic regression. Selected findings will eventually be published in a peerreviewed journal. The estimated annual burden hours are 466. There are no costs to respondents other than their time. E:\FR\FM\13JNN1.SGM 13JNN1
