Title of the Collection: The Health Education and Relationships for
Teens Study.
Type of Collection: New.
OMB No. 0990-NEW--Office of Population Affairs/OASH.
Abstract: The Office of Population Affairs (OPA), U.S. Department
of Health and Human Services (HHS) is requesting 3 years of approval by
OMB on a new collection. The Health Education and Relationships for
Teens Study (HEARTS) is expected to be a large, multischool random
assignment evaluation of the Love Notes curriculum, a popular
relationship education curriculum that is widely implemented among
federal teen pregnancy prevention and sexual risk avoidance education
grantees. The purpose of HEARTS is to provide evidence of effectiveness
of the Love Notes curriculum by examining the impacts of Love Notes on
youth outcomes such as knowledge about healthy relationships, self-
efficacy and motivation to engage in healthy behaviors, interpersonal
communication skills, sexual risk behaviors, and health. The study will
be conducted in approximately 40 schools, with half randomly assigned
to deliver Love Notes to high school youth in health or other classes
and the other half in the control condition with business as usual
health programming. Data collection activities are planned to begin in
spring 2022 in approximately four to six schools, with additional
schools brought into the study during the 2022-23 school year. The
study will collect youth outcome surveys at baseline and at 6 months
and 12 months following the completion of the program. The study will
also collect extensive implementation data, including youth

engagement exit ticket surveys after Love Notes sessions, focus groups
with youth, program facilitator logs and attendance records, and
teacher exit ticket surveys after periodic Love Notes sessions. Study
staff will also interview facilitators and site leadership.
