Centers for Disease Control and Prevention
[60Day-15-1005; Docket No. CDC-2015-0018]
Proposed Data Collection Submitted for Public Comment and
Recommendations
AGENCY: Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), Department of
Health and Human Services (HHS).
ACTION: Notice with comment period.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), as part
of its continuing efforts to reduce public burden and maximize the
utility of government information, invites the general public and other
Federal agencies to take this opportunity to comment on proposed and/or
continuing information collections, as required by the Paperwork
Reduction Act of 1995. This notice invites comment on the information
collection request for reinstatement with change of the collection
previously approved under OMB control number 0920-1005--``Conduct an
Older Adult Mobility Assessment Tool Impact Evaluation and Develop a
Dissemination Plan''. This collection will help evaluate whether the
Mobility Planning Tool is effective for promoting readiness to adopt
mobility-protective behaviors in older adults.
DATES: Written comments must be received on or before June 8, 2015.
ADDRESSES: You may submit comments, identified by Docket No. CDC-2015-
0018 by any of the following methods:
Federal eRulemaking Portal: Regulation.gov. Follow the instructions
for submitting comments.
Mail: Leroy A. Richardson, Information Collection Review Office,
Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, 1600 Clifton Road NE., MS-
D74, Atlanta, Georgia 30329.
Instructions: All submissions received must include the agency name
and Docket Number. All relevant comments received will be posted
without change to Regulations.gov, including any personal information
provided. For access to the docket to read background documents or

Please note: All public comment should be submitted through the
Federal eRulemaking portal (Regulations.gov) or by U.S. mail to 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
[[Page 18849]]
collection to OMB for approval. To comply with this requirement, we are
publishing this notice of a proposed data collection as described
below.
Comments are invited on: (a) Whether the proposed collection of
information is necessary for the proper performance of the functions of
the agency, including whether the information shall have practical
utility; (b) the accuracy of the agency's estimate of the burden of the
proposed collection of information; (c) ways to enhance the quality,
utility, and clarity of the information to be collected; (d) ways to
minimize the burden of the collection of information on respondents,
including through the use of automated collection techniques or other
forms of information technology; and (e) estimates of capital or start-
up costs and costs of operation, maintenance, and purchase of services
to provide information. Burden means the total time, effort, or
financial resources expended by persons to generate, maintain, retain,
disclose or provide information to or for a Federal agency. This
includes the time needed to review instructions; to develop, acquire,
install and utilize technology and systems for the purpose of
collecting, validating and verifying information, processing and
maintaining information, and disclosing and providing information; to
train personnel and to be able to respond to a collection of
information, to search data sources, to complete and review the
collection of information; and to transmit or otherwise disclose the
information.
Proposed Project
Conduct an Older Adult Mobility Assessment Tool Impact Evaluation
and Develop a Dissemination Plan (OMB Control No. 0920-1005)--
Reinstatement with Change--National Center for Injury Prevention and
Control (NCIPC), Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).
Background and Brief Description
CDC's National Center for Injury Prevention and Control (NCIPC)
requests approval for 3 years, from the Office of Management and Budget
(OMB) for a reinstatement with change for the previously approved OMB
No. 0920-1005 (Exp. Date: 12-31-2014) designed to evaluate whether the
Mobility Planning Tool is effective for promoting readiness to adopt
mobility-protective behaviors in older adults and assess potential
strategies for dissemination of the Mobility Planning Tool. With this
reinstatement, NCIPC requests a change of title from ``Older Adult Safe
Mobility Assessment Tool'' to ``Conduct an Older Adult Mobility
Assessment Tool Impact Evaluation and Develop a Dissemination Plan.''
The population of older adults in the U.S. is growing rapidly. By
2030, this segment of the population will increase to an estimated 72
million (20% of the U.S. population). A critical public health issue
for the older adult population is mobility--how well people are able to
get to places they need to go. The goals of this study are to evaluate
(1) whether the Mobility Planning Tool (MPT) is effective for promoting
readiness to adopt mobility-protective behaviors in older adults and
(2) assess potential strategies for dissemination of the MPT.
NCIPC will collect study data using telephone interviews. The study
population is community-living older adults ages 60-74 with no known
mobility limitations. A total of 1,000 individuals will participate in
the study. Prospective respondents will answer a series of screening
questions. Individuals who meet the screening criteria and are willing
to participate will complete a baseline and follow-up interview each
lasting approximately 10 minutes.
NCIPC will analyzed the collected data using descriptive statistics
and a series of t-tests, chi-square analyses, and Mann-Whitney U-tests.
Multivariate analyses will include a series of repeated measures
Analysis of Variance (ANOVA), and logistic regressions.
The data collected from this study will help CDC identify what
further revisions to the MPT might be necessary before it is
disseminated publicly. Selected study findings may eventually be
presented in oral and poster presentations and published in a peer-
reviewed journal. Without this information collection, CDC will not
know whether the MPT is an effective tool for promoting readiness to
adopt mobility-protective behaviors in older adults and will not know
whether additional revisions to the tool are necessary before the MPT
is disseminated publicly. Without this study, CDC will have limited
information about what strategies are most likely to be effective for
disseminating the MPT publicly to the target audience.
The total estimated annual burden hours are 734.
