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 collection to the OMB for approval. To
comply with this requirement, we are publishing this notice of a
proposed data collection as described below.
The OMB is particularly interested in comments that will help:
1. Evaluate whether the proposed collection of information is
necessary for the proper performance of the functions of the agency,
including whether the information will have practical utility;
2. Evaluate the accuracy of the agency's estimate of the burden of
the proposed collection of information, including the validity of the
methodology and assumptions used;
3. Enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to
be collected;
4. Minimize the burden of the collection of information on those
who are to respond, including through the use of appropriate automated,
electronic, mechanical, or other technological collection techniques or
other forms of information technology, e.g., permitting electronic
submissions of responses; and
5. Assess information collection costs.
Proposed Project
Data Collection Through Web Based Surveys for Evaluating Act
Against AIDS Social Marketing Campaign Phases Targeting Consumers (OMB
Control No. 0920-0920, Exp. 5/31/2023)--Extension--National Center for
HIV/AIDS, Viral Hepatitis, STD and TB Prevention (NCHHSTP), Centers for
Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).
Background and Brief Description
In response to the continued HIV epidemic in our country, CDC
launched the Let's Stop HIV Together campaign (formerly known as Act
Against AIDS), a multifaceted communication campaign to reduce HIV
incidence in the United States in 2009. CDC has released the campaign
in phases, with some of the phases running concurrently. Each phase of
the campaign uses mass media and direct-to-consumer channels to deliver
messages. Some campaigns provide basic education and increase awareness
of HIV/AIDS among the general public whereas others emphasize HIV
prevention and testing among specific subgroups or communities at
greatest risk of infection. CDC will also develop new messages to
address changes in prevention science and subpopulations affected by
HIV. The proposed study will assess the effectiveness of these social
marketing messages aimed at increasing HIV/AIDS awareness, increasing
prevention behaviors, and improving HIV testing rates among consumers.
This Extension of an ongoing study will allow for continued
evaluation of the effectiveness of Let's Stop HIV Together social
marketing campaign through surveys with consumers. A total of 6,445
respondents were approved for the previously renewed Generic ICR (0920-
0920) in 2022, and since the approval date, 2,500 respondents were
surveyed under the GenIC, ``Development of Messages for the Let's Stop
HIV Together National Campaign''. The information collected from this
survey was used to evaluate the acceptability and potential
effectiveness of proposed concepts, messages, and taglines for a
component of the Let's Stop HIV Together campaign focused on HIV
prevention that promotes proven, effective prevention strategies, such
as pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) and treatment as prevention (TasP).
We are requesting a three-year Extension to continue surveying target
audiences.
Through this Extension, we plan to reach the remaining approved
3,945 respondents. To obtain the remaining respondents, we anticipate
screening approximately 26,336 individuals. Depending on the target
audience for the campaign phase, the study screener will vary. The
study screener may address one or more of the following items: Race/
ethnicity, sexual behavior, sexual orientation, gender identity, HIV
testing history, HIV status, and injection drug use. Each survey will
have a core set of items asked in all rounds, as well as a module of
questions relating to specific Let's Stop HIV Together phases and
activities.
Respondents will be recruited through national opt-in email lists,
the internet, and external partnerships with community-based and
membership organizations that work with or represent individuals from
targeted populations (e.g., National Urban League, the National Medical
Association). Respondents will self-administer the survey at home on

personal computers. CDC requests OMB approval for an estimated 2,849
annual burden hours. There is no cost to the respondents other than
their time.
