Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration
Agency Information Collection Activities: Proposed Collection;
Comment Request
In compliance with Section 3506(c)(2)(A) of the Paperwork Reduction
Act of 1995 concerning opportunity for public comment on proposed
collections of information, the Substance Abuse and Mental Health
Services Administration (SAMHSA) will publish periodic summaries of
proposed projects. To request more information on the proposed project
or to obtain a copy of the information collection plans, call the
SAMHSA Reports Clearance Officer at (240) 276-1243.
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
[[Page 25360]]
collected; and (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.
Proposed Project: Assessment of the Underage Drinking Prevention
Education Initiatives State/Territory Videos Project--New
The Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration/
Center for Substance Abuse Prevention (SAMHSA/CSAP) is requesting
Office of Management and Budget (OMB) approval of three new data
collection instruments--
State/Territory Video Contacts Interview Form
State/Territory Videos Project--Dissemination Update Form
Video Viewers Feedback Form
This new information collection is for a process assessment of the
Underage Drinking Prevention Education Initiatives State/Territory
Videos project to be conducted from 2011 through 2014. In 2007, four
States participated in a pilot study to produce videos highlighting the
underage drinking (UAD) prevention efforts of the States. Based upon
the success of those videos in showcasing the States' UAD prevention
activities, 10 additional States and 1 Territory were provided funds to
produce UAD prevention videos in 2009. SAMHSA/CSAP intends to support
the production of the State/Territory UAD prevention videos annually.
Therefore, from 2010 through 2013, SAMHSA/CSAP will invite
approximately 45 additional States/Territories to produce their own UAD
prevention video.
The information collected for the assessment will be used by
SAMHSA/CSAP to (1) ascertain whether the videos produced under the
State/Territory Videos project are assisting States and Territories in
communicating effectively about their underage drinking prevention
initiatives, goals, and objectives; (2) document the dissemination
efforts of the videos; and (3) enhance the technical assistance (TA)
that is provided by the video production team in producing the videos.
This information collection is being implemented under authority of
Section 501(d)(4) of the Public Health Service Act (42 USC 290aa).
There are three phases to the process assessment of the State/
Territory Videos project--(1) State/Territory video contacts
interviews, (2) dissemination updates, and (3) video viewers feedback.
Phase I--State/Territory Video Contacts Interviews--A member of the
assessment team will contact the designated State/Territory point of
contact once the video is finalized. The focus of the interview will be
around the State's/Territory's experience in producing the UAD
prevention video, the dissemination efforts of the video, and TA
received. The interview will be guided by the State/Territory Video
Contacts Interview Form. The State/Territory Video Contacts Interview
Form includes 31 items, among which are included the following:
Objectives of the video.
Targeted audiences of the video.
Dissemination efforts of the video.
Identification of how the video increases capacity to
communicate about UAD prevention activities.
Usefulness of the preplanning materials and activities.
Assessment of the TA received.
By 2014, the State/Territory Video Contacts Interview Form will be
completed with approximately 45 State/Territory points of contact for
videos produced from 2010 through 2013. It will take an average of 20
minutes (0.333 hours) to read the informed consent statement and
complete the interview. This burden estimate is based on interviews
that were conducted with the pilot sites in 2007. Only 1 response per
respondent is required.
Phase II--Dissemination Updates--At about 6 months after the
interview, the State/Territory points of contact will be sent an e-mail
from the assessment team detailing the need to update the dissemination
efforts of the video for the past 6 months. The e-mail will include a
coded link to access the State/Territory Video Project--Dissemination
Update Form. The State/Territory Video Project--Dissemination Update
Form includes 16 items, among which are included the following:
Dissemination efforts of the video in the past 6 months.
Feedback received on the video in the past 6 months.
Unintended positive outcomes from the video in the past 6
months.
Assessment of TA received in the past 6 months.
At the end of the form, the contact is thanked and reminded that
they will be recontacted in about 6 months to update the dissemination
efforts of their State's/Territory's video. Following OMB clearance, an
e-mail will be sent to the State/Territory points of contact for videos
produced during 2007-2009 noting that OMB clearance has been received
for the assessment and asking them to update the dissemination efforts
of the video for the past 6 months. These State/Territory points of
contact provided initial details of the dissemination activities of
their State's/Territory's video to the video production team during the
post-production phase of the video. All videos produced under the
State/Territory Videos project during 2007-2013 (total of 60) will be
assessed in this phase.
The State/Territory Videos Project--Dissemination Update Form will
be completed by State/Territory points of contact every 6 months
through 2014. A total of 226 updates are expected through 2014. It will
take an average of 10 minutes (0.167 hours) to review instructions and
complete the online form. The burden estimate is based on comments from
several potential respondents who reviewed the form and provided
comments on how long it would take them to respond to it. The
annualized hour burden is expected to vary because of differences in
when the videos were produced and the number of updates that are
expected through 2014.
Phase III--Video Viewers Feedback--The purpose of this phase of the
assessment is to obtain feedback on the videos to determine if the
videos increased community awareness of the UAD prevention efforts of
the States/Territories. The Video Viewers Feedback Form will be located
on the ``State Videos'' page of http://www.stopalcoholabuse.gov. A link
to the feedback form may also be placed on SAMHSA's YouTube channel (if
additional clearance is obtained). If States/Territories conduct in-
person meetings to showcase the video, they may direct persons to the
``State Videos'' page of http://www.stopalcoholabuse.gov to complete
the form or a link to the form will be provided that can be placed on
their agency's Web site. Viewers will be asked to complete 1 feedback
form for each video viewed. The Video Viewers Feedback Form includes 16
items, among which are included the following:
Indication of which video was viewed.
When and how the video was viewed.
Indication of increased awareness of the State's/
Territory's UAD prevention activities.
Perception of increased involvement.
Demographics of the viewers.
This phase will include all videos produced since 2007 (total of
60). It is estimated that by 2014, a total of 12,224.40 viewers will
complete the online form, which will take an average of 5 minutes
(0.083 hours) to review the informed consent statement,
[[Page 25361]]
instructions, and complete the form. The average completion time is
based on comments from several potential respondents who reviewed the
form and provided comments on how long it would take them to respond to
it. Viewers of the video are assumed to be persons in the health
education field or members of the general public (25 and 75 percent,
respectively). The hour burden is expected to vary because of this
difference in viewers.
