Food and Drug Administration's (FDA's) Research and Evaluation Survey 
for the Public Education Campaign on Tobacco (RESPECT) Among LGBT

OMB Control Number 0910-0808-Extension

    The 2009 Family Smoking Prevention and Tobacco Control Act (Tobacco 
Control Act) (Pub. L. 111-31) amended the Federal Food, Drug, and 
Cosmetic Act (FD&C Act) to grant FDA authority to regulate the 
manufacture, marketing, and distribution of tobacco products to protect 
public health and to reduce tobacco use by minors. Section 
1003(d)(2)(D) of the FD&C Act (21 U.S.C. 393(d)(2)(D)) supports the 
development and implementation of FDA public education campaigns 
related to tobacco use. In May 2016, FDA began implementing a public 
education campaign to help prevent and reduce tobacco use among LGBT 
young adults and thereby reduce the public health burden of tobacco. 
The campaign continues to be implemented in 12 U.S. cities and features 
events, television and radio and print advertisements, digital 
communications, including videos, social media, and other forms of 
media. For the purpose of this notice, these campaign elements will be 
referred to as ``advertisements'' or ``ads.''
    In support of the provisions of the Tobacco Control Act that 
require FDA to protect the public health and to reduce tobacco use, FDA 
requests OMB approval to collect information needed to evaluate FDA's 
campaign to reduce tobacco use among LGBT young adults. Comprehensive 
evaluation of FDA's public education campaigns is needed to ensure 
campaign messages are effectively received, understood, and accepted by 
those for whom they are intended. Evaluation is an essential 
organizational practice in public health and a systematic way to 
account for and improve public health actions.
    To evaluate the effectiveness of FDA's RESPECT at reducing tobacco 
use among LGBT young adults aged 18 to 24, FDA contracted with RTI 
International (RTI) to conduct Web-based surveys with the target 
population in the 12 campaign cities and 12 comparison cities. The 
surveys include measures of tobacco-related knowledge, attitudes, 
beliefs, intentions, and use as well as measures of audience awareness 
of and exposure to campaign events and advertisements. The voluntary 
surveys also collect information on demographic variables, including 
sexual orientation, age, sex, race/ethnicity, education, and primary 
language. Baseline data collection for RESPECT was conducted between 
February and May 2016. Four subsequent waves of data collection were 
conducted with new (cross-sectional) and returning (longitudinal) 
respondents. This design facilitated analysis of relationships between 
individuals' exposure to campaign activities and baseline to follow-up 
changes in outcomes of interest between campaign and comparison cities. 
Information collection for baseline and the first four follow-ups was 
reviewed and approved by OMB.
    FDA will continue to implement RESPECT in 12 U.S. cities through 
April 2019. To complete the evaluation of RESPECT, FDA is requesting an 
extension of the previously approved information collection in order to 
conduct two additional waves of data collection with the target 
population. The proposed sixth and seventh waves of data collection 
(i.e., fifth and sixth follow-ups after baseline) will coincide with 
the official end of the campaign, and will serve as an assessment of 
the campaign at completion. Continued evaluation is necessary in order 
to determine the campaign's impact on outcomes of interest.
    As in previous waves, new and returning survey respondents will be

[[Page 37819]]

invited to complete the online questionnaire. New (or cross-sectional) 
respondents will be recruited at LGBT social venues and via social 
media (i.e., Facebook and Twitter). In-person recruitment will take 
place in a variety of LGBT venues. The owners or managers of potential 
recruitment sites will be asked a series of questions to determine the 
appropriateness of its clientele for participation in the study. For 
the fifth and sixth follow-ups, an estimated 60 new venues (20 
annualized) will be assessed at 5 minutes per assessment, for an 
additional 5 hours (1.67 annualized). A total of 1,980 venues (660 
annualized) will be assessed during the evaluation study, for a total 
of 165 hours (55 annualized).
    Our goal is to recruit 75 percent of the sample via intercept 
interviews and 25 percent via social media. To obtain the target number 
of completed fifth and sixth follow-up questionnaires, an additional 
11,904 adults (3,968 annualized) recruited in person and 2,736 adults 
(912 annualized) recruited via social media will complete screening 
questionnaires. For the entire evaluation study, a total of 33,717 
adults (11,239 annualized) recruited in person will complete screening 
questionnaires along with 10,617 adults (3,539 annualized) recruited 
via social media. The estimated burden to complete the screening 
questionnaire is 5 minutes (0.083 hour), for a total of 2,799 hours 
(933 annualized) for in-person recruits and 881 hours (294 annualized) 
for social media recruits.
    Based on analysis of response rates from prior waves of data 
collection, we expect 65 percent of intercept respondents will be 
deemed eligible and 50 percent of those will complete the fifth follow-
up questionnaire. We expect 30 percent of those recruited via social 
media will be deemed eligible and complete the fifth follow-up 
questionnaire. Lastly, we expect 50 percent of returning (or 
longitudinal) respondents to complete the fifth and sixth follow-up 
questionnaires. We estimate that approximately 2,100 new respondents 
(700 annualized) and 6,678 returning (2,226 annualized) respondents 
will complete the fifth and sixth follow-up questionnaires, for a total 
of 8,778 responses (2,926 annualized).
    OMB previously approved 3,156 (1,052 annualized) respondents 
recruited via social media and 9,456 (3,152 annualized) respondents 
recruited in person to complete the first four follow-up 
questionnaires. Adding the fifth and sixth follow-ups brings the total 
estimated number of follow up questionnaires completed by social media 
recruits to 5,256 (1,752 annualized) and by in-person recruits to 
16,134 (5,378 annualized). At 40 minutes per completed questionnaire, 
the total burden is 3,507 hours (1,169 annualized) for social media 
respondents and 10,761 hours (3,587 annualized) for in-person 
respondents.
    OMB also previously approved 393 hours (approximately 132 
annualized) for social media respondents and 1,182 hours (394 
annualized) for in-person respondents to complete baseline 
questionnaires. OMB also approved the pilot test of procedures in bars 
(6 hours [2 annualized]). As these study components are complete, the 
corresponding burden will not change. Lastly, the original study design 
included a media tracking component, which included a burden of 414 
hours (138 annualized) for completing a 5-minute screening 
questionnaire and 999 hours (333 annualized) for completing the media 
tracking questionnaire. However, this component was dropped from the 
study; hence, the related burden has been deducted from the total study 
burden.
    FDA estimates the burden of this collection of information as 
follows:

    To accommodate the additional waves of data collection, FDA 
requests approval to increase the number of burden hours under the 
existing control number. The previous number of approved responses was 
53,967 (17,989 annualized), and the previous burden was 14,031 hours 
(4,677 annualized). The fifth and sixth follow-ups add 23,478 responses 
(7,826 annualized), which include responses to new venues assessments, 
screening questionnaires, and the follow-up questionnaires, for a total 
of 7,074 additional burden hours (2,357 annualized). Removing the media 
tracking component deducts 6,507 responses (2,169 annualized) and 1,413 
burden hours (471 annualized). The totals for the entire evaluation 
study are increasing by 16,971 responses (5,657 annualized) and 5,661 
hours (1,887 annualized) for a new total of 70,938 responses (23,646 
annualized) and 19,692 burden hours (approximately 6,566 annualized).
