In compliance with Section 3507(a)(1)(D) of the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, the National Institutes of Health (NIH) has submitted to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) a request for review and approval of the information collection listed below. Proposed Collection: The National Institute of Mental Health Data Archive (NDA), REVISION, OMB Control Number 0925-0667, National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH), National Institutes of Health (NIH). Need and Use of Information Collection: This REVISION request seeks approval of updates to the previously approved National Database for Autism Research Data Access Request and Data Use Certification, to include additional terms/options for data submission and access to meet the needs of the expanding resource, and to change the repository name to the NIMH Data Archive (NDA). The NDA, formerly known as the National Database for Autism Research (NDAR), is an infrastructure that allows for the submission and storage of human subjects data from researchers conducting studies related to many scientific domains, regardless of the source of funding. The NIH and NIMH developed this resource to allow for the public collection of information from: (1) Individuals who seek permission to access data from the NDA for the purpose of scientific investigation, scholarship or teaching, or other forms of research and research development, via the Data Use Certification (DUC), and (2) individuals who request permission to submit data to the NDA for the purpose of scientific investigation, scholarship or teaching, or other forms of research and research development, via the Data Submission Agreement (DSA). The extensive information stored in the NDA continues to provide a rare and valuable scientific resource to the field, and plays an integral part in fulfilling research objectives in multiple scientific domains. The NIH and the NIMH seek to encourage use of the NDA by investigators in the field of multiple scientific research domains to achieve rapid scientific progress. In order to take full advantage of this resource and maximize its research value, it is important that data are made broadly available, on appropriate terms and conditions, to the largest possible number of investigators. OMB approval is requested for 3 years. There are no costs to respondents other than their time. The total estimated annualized burden hours are 1,500.
