Submission for OMB Review;
Comment Request
Title: Pre-testing of Evaluation Data
Collection Activities.
OMB No.: 0970–0355.
Description: The Office of Planning,
Research, and Evaluation (OPRE), in the
Administration for Children and
Families (ACF) at the U.S. Department
of Health and Human Services (HHS)
intends to request approval from the
Office of Management and Budget
(OMB) to renew a generic clearance to
pre-test data collection instruments with
more than nine participants to identify
and resolve any question or procedural
problems in survey administration.
OPRE studies ACF programs, and the
populations they serve, through rigorous
research and evaluation projects. These
include evaluations of existing
programs, evaluations of innovative
approaches to helping low-income
children and families, research
syntheses and descriptive and
exploratory studies. To improve the
development of its research and
evaluation surveys, OPRE uses the pretesting of evaluation surveys generic
clearance to employ a variety of
techniques including cognitive and
usability laboratory and field
techniques, behavior coding,
exploratory interviews, respondent
debriefing questionnaires, split sample
experiments, focus groups, and pilot
studies/pre-tests. These activities allow
OPRE to identify if and when a survey
may be simplified for respondents,
respondent burden may be reduced, and
other possible improvements.
Following standard OMB
requirements, OPRE will submit a
change request for each individual data
collection activity under this generic
clearance. Each request will include the
individual instrument(s), a justification
specific to the individual information
collection, and any supplementary
documents. OMB should review within
10 days of receiving each change
request.
The information collected in this
effort will not be the primary subject of
any published ACF reports; however,
information may be made public
through methodological appendices or
footnotes, reports on instrument
development, instrument user guides,
descriptions of respondent behavior,
and other publications or presentations
describing findings of methodological
interest. When necessary, results will be
labeled as exploratory in nature. The
results of this pre-testing research may
be prepared for presentation at
professional meetings or publication in
professional journals.
Respondents: Participants in ACF
programs being evaluated; participants
in ACF demonstrations; recipients of
ACF Grants and individuals served by
ACF Grantees; comparison group
members; and other relevant
populations, such as individuals at risk
of needing ACF services.
