The Centers for Disease
Control and Prevention (CDC), as part of
its continuing effort to reduce public
burden and maximize the utility of
government information, invites the

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Under the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (PRA)
(44 U.S.C. 3501–3520), federal agencies
must obtain approval from the Office of
Management and Budget (OMB) for each
collection of information they conduct
or sponsor. In addition, the PRA also
requires federal agencies to provide a
60-day notice in the Federal Register
concerning each proposed collection of
information, including each new
proposed collection, each proposed
extension of existing collection of
information, and each reinstatement of
previously approved information
collection before submitting the
collection to the OMB for approval. To
comply with this requirement, we are
publishing this notice of a proposed
data collection as described below.
The OMB is particularly interested in
comments that will help:
1. Evaluate whether the proposed
collection of information is necessary
for the proper performance of the
functions of the agency, including
whether the information will have
practical utility;
2. Evaluate the accuracy of the
agency’s estimate of the burden of the
proposed collection of information,
including the validity of the
methodology and assumptions used;
3. Enhance the quality, utility, and
clarity of the information to be
collected;
4. Minimize the burden of the
collection of information on those who
are to respond, including through the
use of appropriate automated,
electronic, mechanical, or other
technological collection techniques or
other forms of information technology,
e.g., permitting electronic submissions
of responses; and
5. Assess information collection costs.
Proposed Project
Formative Research on Adverse and
positive childhood experiences, social
determinants of health, and health
equity among young adults in the U.S.—
New—National Center for Injury
Prevention and Control (NCIPC),
Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention (CDC).
Background and Brief Description
CDC requests OMB approval for a new
data collection for the study titled

positive childhood experiences, social
determinants of health, and health

equity among young adults in the U.S.
This study will help CDC to better
understand the relationship between
adverse childhood experiences (ACEs),
positive childhood experiences (PCEs),
social determinants of health (SDOH),
and health outcomes among young
adults from populations that have been
socially and economically marginalized.
This is a group at high risk for
experiencing childhood adversity and
has been historically underrepresented
in research studies.
CDC is seeking approval to conduct a
one-time information collection effort,
with data collection occurring over a 12month period. The study will include
6,000 young adults ages 18–24 living in
the U.S. Primary data collection, in
English and Spanish, via a probabilitybased web panel survey, will obtain
new data on retrospective assessments
of ACEs and other potentially traumatic
experiences, PCEs, SDOHs, and health
and violence outcomes. Sampling
frameworks will be designed to ensure
overrepresentation of some populations
that are disproportionately impacted by
ACEs. as well as underrepresented in
research and violence prevention
programming, including individuals
with disabilities; individuals from racial
and ethnic minority groups; and
individuals who identify as sexual or
gender minority.
This project expands the existing
evidence base and addresses several
gaps in extant data collection systems in
the following three ways. First, this
study expands how ACEs are measured.
Traditional ACEs research has measured
eight to 10 highly interconnected,
household-level childhood stressors.
These include sexual abuse, physical
abuse, emotional abuse, emotional
neglect, physical neglect, witnessing
intimate partner violence, parent
separation/divorce, and living in a home
with exposure to mental illness,
substance misuse, and incarceration
(hereafter referred to as traditional
ACEs). However, most ACE research
does not account for a wide array of
other potentially traumatic experiences
that can exist across all levels of the
social ecology, including stressors that
uniquely impact populations that are
socially and economically marginalized
(e.g., fear of deportation; experiences of
transphobia; exposure to neighborhood
or community violence). These
potentially traumatic experiences may
have an additive or multiplicative effect
on risk for poor outcomes, or may have
a greater effect on risk relative to the
conventional ACEs categories.
Second, this study will create a
diverse sample which is statistically
powered to answer questions on how to
E:\FR\FM\19JYN1.SGM
19JYN1
58740
Federal Register / Vol. 89, No. 139 / Friday, July 19, 2024 / Notices
prevent ACEs and mitigate the impact of
specific and cumulative ACEs exposures
among communities that have been
traditionally socially and economically
marginalized. Most samples used in
prior surveillance and research studies
do not sufficiently oversample underrepresented communities to allow for
disaggregation of results by sub-group.
Thus, there is a need for data samples
that allow for disaggregated analysis and
results.
Third, this study will link individual
level data to community-level variables.
While ACEs are individual experiences,
they are influenced by the contexts in
which children and families live. SDOH
are the conditions in which people are
born, grow, live, work, and age that are
shaped by the distribution of money,
power, and resources. SDOH contribute
to health and social inequities for
groups with disparities in access to
money, power and resources. Many
existing ACEs datasets involving
individual-level respondents cannot be
linked to community-level variables.
This formative study will link survey
data with publicly available data on
structural factors (e.g., minimum wage;
generosity of unemployment benefits)
via zip code or other geographic
indicators.
It is estimated that up to 6,000 young
adults will complete the one-time
questionnaire. On average, the webbased surveys are estimated to take 30
minutes to complete. These estimates
were informed by consultations with
individuals with lived experiences and
individuals who participated in
cognitive interviews. The study team
engaged three consultants with lived
experience across the three main areas
of interest (individuals with a disability,
individuals who identify as sexual and
gender minorities, and individuals who
identify as racial/ethnic minorities) to
inform the development and
administration of the instrument. The
study team also engaged up to nine
individuals, in cognitive testing to
ensure the relevance, validity, and
equitable nature of the survey
instrument. These cognitive interviews
were a key component for developing a
final draft of the instrument that
accurately and reliably reflects the
experiences and perspectives of a
diverse range of individuals, families,
and communities. Using a standard
estimated time for question completion,
the project team calculated the burden
by averaging the time to complete the
minimum and maximum number of
survey items a respondent could be
asked based on varying skip patterns.
The estimated annualized burden is
3,985 hours. There is no cost to
respondents other than their time to
participate.
