SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Abstract
This information collection supports NASA's efforts to implement
the National Aeronautics and Space Act, as amended, 51 U.S.C.
20112(a)(3) to better understand and inform strategies to improve the
outcomes in how we ``provide for the widest practicable and appropriate
dissemination of information concerning its activities and the results
thereof.'' Through this effort, NASA seeks to collect information that
will help best understand the current results of its communications to
the American public, and how to apply resources to most efficiently and
effectively fulfill that foundational function of NASA. This data
collection is part of an effort to have an audience-oriented and data-
driven approach to assessing NASA's performance against this mandate in
a manner that is objective, standardized, and repeatable.
This information will be used by NASA to measure the American
public's knowledge of the agency, its activities, the overall sector
and the government's role in it, and how those factors vary across
demographics. This type of research is standard in the commercial
communications industry. NASA will use the information to adjust its
communication strategies and methods, widen dissemination, better reach
demographics with low awareness or misinformation, and tailor
information to specific appropriate audiences, ensuring more effective
and equitable dissemination.
II. Methods of Collection
Web-based, email, and telephone.
