Date 05/31/2016, REVISION, National Cancer Institute (NCI), National
Institutes of Health (NIH).
Need and Use of Information Collection: As part of NCI's mandate
from Congress to disseminate information on cancer research, detection,
prevention, and treatment, the Institute develops a wide variety of
messages and materials. Testing these messages and materials assesses
their potential effectiveness in reaching and communicating with their
intended audience while they are still in the developmental stage and
can be revised. The formative research and pretesting process thus
contributes to maximizing NCI's limited dollar resources for
information dissemination and education. NCI also must ensure the
relevance, utility, and appropriateness of the many educational
programs and products that the Institute produces. Customer
satisfaction studies help NCI identify modifications necessary to meet
the needs of NCI's various target audiences. Since the previous
submission, there have been 10 approved sub-studies with an approved
request of just under 1400 burden hours over 2.5 years. Approval is
requested for the conduct of multiple studies annually using such
methods as interviews, focus groups, and various types of surveys. The
content, timing, and number of respondents to be included in each sub-
study will vary, depending on the nature of the message/material/
program being assessed, the methodology selected, and the target
audiences.
OMB approval is requested for 3 years. There are no costs to
respondents other than their time. The total estimated annualized
burden hours are 33,000.
