SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Title; Associated Form; And Omb Number:
[[Page 59066]]
Overcoming Barriers to Safe Firearms Storage Among Different Groups;
OMB Control Number 0704-OBFS.
Type of Request: New.
Number of Respondents: 1,400.
Responses per Respondent: 1.
Annual Responses: 1,400.
Average Burden per Response: 20 minutes.
Annual Burden Hours: 467 hours.
Needs And Uses: The Defense Suicide Prevention Office (DSPO) has
contracted with CNA to conduct a study titled ``Overcoming Barriers to
Safe Firearms Storage Among Different Groups.'' The goal of the study
is to assist the services in meeting the requirements set forth in DoD
Instruction 6490.16 that all suicide prevention activities are
developed from a relevant evidence-base and have an evaluation
capability prior to implementation. DSPO wants to craft safe firearm
storage messages that will be persuasive to servicemembers of varying
races and genders, in response to changing demographics of firearm
owners and suicides completed using a firearm. To do so, CNA has
developed a survey that will address the following issues:
<bullet> What are the barriers to safe firearm storage practices
among different groups?
<bullet> Do different demographic groups respond to messages
differently, and if so, how should messaging be targeted? For example,
would these servicemembers respond more positively if their demographic
group were featured in safety appeals?
<bullet> What principles could be introduced to OSD lethal means
safety messaging to make it better resonate across demographic groups?
This survey will provide unique information to help DoD (a)
determine what attitudinal and other barriers prevent servicemembers
from adopting safe firearms storage practices, (b) decide which aspects
of a safe storage message are most persuasive in overcoming those
barriers, and (c) learn whether female and Black servicemembers respond
differently to safe storage messaging. The findings from the survey
will support DoD Instruction 6400.09's mandate to focus suicide
prevention efforts on research-based programs, policies, and practices.
They will also assist in executing data-informed actions to reduce and
stop self-directed harm (Section 1.2.b), promoting an understanding of
lethal means safety among the military community (Section 4.3.b), and
addressing the needs of high-risk groups (Section 4.7.a.).
Affected Public: Individuals or households.
Frequency: Once.
Respondent's Obligation: Voluntary.
