Agency Information Collection Activities: Submission for OMB
Review; Comment Request
Periodically, the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services
Administration (SAMHSA) will publish a summary of information

Project: 2009 National Survey on Drug Use and Health--(OMB No. 0930-
0110)--Revision
The National Survey on Drug Use and Health (NSDUH), formerly the
National Household Survey on Drug Abuse (NHSDA) is a survey of the
civilian, non-institutionalized population of the United States 12
years old and older. The data are used to determine the prevalence of
use of tobacco products, alcohol, illicit substances, and illicit use
of prescription drugs. The results are used by SAMHSA, ONDCP, Federal
government agencies, and other organizations and researchers to
establish policy, direct program activities, and better allocate
resources.
In the 2009 NSDUH, one scale measuring impairment from mental
health issues will be adopted. The decision to adopt either the Sheehan
or the WHO-DAS is currently being evaluated in the 2008 NSDUH by using
the SCID-I/NP as a follow-up interview with a subsample of respondents.
Based upon a substantive review of questions in the Youth Mental Health
Services Utilization module, some additions and deletions will be made
to this section to more specifically depict the types of providers and
service delivery sites for youth mental health services. The remaining
modular components of the questionnaire will remain essentially
unchanged except for minor modifications to wording.
As with all NSDUH/NHSDA surveys conducted since 1999, the sample
size of the survey for 2009 will be sufficient to permit prevalence
estimates for each of the fifty states and the District of Columbia.
The total annual burden estimate is shown below:
