Agency Information Collection Activities: Proposed New 
Information Collection Activity; Comment Request, Proposed Study 
Entitled ``Tribal Youth Victimization Methods Study''

AGENCY: National Institute of Justice, U.S. Department of Justice.

ACTION: 60-day notice.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The Department of Justice (DOJ), Office of Justice Programs, 
National Institute of Justice, will be submitting the following 
information collection request to the Office of Management and Budget 
(OMB) for review and approval in accordance with the Paperwork 
Reduction Act of 1995.

DATES: Comments are encouraged and will be accepted for 60 days until 
June 26, 2017.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: If you have additional comments 
especially on the estimated public burden or associated response time, 
suggestions, or need a copy of the proposed information collection 
instrument with instructions or additional information, please contact 
Christine Crossland, National Institute of Justice, Office of Research 
& Evaluation, 810 Seventh Street NW., Washington, DC 20531 (overnight 
20001) or via email at [email protected].

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This process is conducted in accordance with 
5 CFR 1320.10. Written comments and suggestions from the public and 
affected agencies concerning the proposed collection of information are 
encouraged. Your comments should address one or more of the following 
four points:

--Evaluate whether the proposed collection of information is necessary 
for the proper performance of the functions of the National Institute 
of Justice, including whether the information will have practical 
utility;
--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;
--Evaluate whether, and if so how, the quality, utility, and clarity of 
the information to be collected can be enhanced; and
--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 
submission of responses.

Overview of This Information Collection

    1. Type of Information Collection: Survey development; Cognitive 
testing; Pilot testing of survey.
    2. The Title of the Form/Collection: Tribal Youth Victimization 
Methods Study.
    3. The agency form number, if any, and the applicable component of 
the Department sponsoring the collection: The applicable component 
within the U.S. Department of Justice is the National Institute of 
Justice in the Office of Justice Programs.
    4. Affected public who will be asked or required to respond, as 
well as a brief abstract: There has never been a national study of 
tribal youth regarding their victimization experiences that provides 
reliable, valid estimates of the scope of the problem. As a result, the 
incidence, prevalence, and nature of victimization experienced by 
American Indian and Alaska Native youth living in tribal communities is 
unknown. As a result, NIJ, in partnership with the Office of Juvenile 
Justice and Delinquency Prevention and the Office for Victims of Crime 
has funded this methods study that involves developing and testing a 
survey instrument, testing different modes of administration that can 
effectively assess exposure to violence and victimization, and 
determining the feasibility of using these procedures in tribal 
communities and settings.
    The sample includes tribal youth 12 to 20 years of age. Cognitive 
testing will be conducted in four tribal settings with between 12-15 
youth at each site. The pilot test involves the use of at least two but 
no more than three different modes of administration modes [e.g., face-
to-face interviews, self-administered questionnaire in paper and pencil 
format, audio computer assisted self-administered interviews 
(required), computer assisted telephone interviews]. The target sample 
is 375 completed interviews from three tribal settings (one in Alaska 
and two in the lower 48.)
    Among the key outcomes that will be examined are the response and 
refusal rates, missing data, interview length, willingness to disclose 
sensitive information, respondent comfort, cost, ability to provide 
assistance to respondents, and the ease and adequacy of the human 
subjects' protocol.
    5. An estimate of the total number of respondents and the amount of 
time estimated for an average respondent to respond: The estimated 
range of burden for respondents participating in the cognitive 
interview is 90 minutes. Approximately 48 youth will be recruited to 
complete a cognitive interview. The estimated range of burden for 
respondents completing the survey in the pilot phase is expected to be 
60 minutes for completion. The following factors were considered when 
creating the burden estimate: the estimated total number of sites 
(i.e., 4 cognitive sites and 3 pilot sites), respondents (i.e., 48 
cognitive interviews and 375 pilot interviews for a total of 423 
respondents), and parental and youth informed consent procedures for 
each phase.
    6. An estimate of the total public burden (in hours) associated 
with the collection: The estimated public burden associated with this 
collection is 447 hours. It is estimated that each of the cognitive 
interviews will take 90

[[Page 19391]]

minutes to complete (48 respondents x 1.5 hour = 72 hours). Lastly, it 
is estimated that each pilot survey will take 60 minutes to complete 
(375 respondents x 1 hour = 375 hours). We estimate a 12-month data 
collection period, with all cognitive and pilot testing completed in 
one year.
