Proposed Project: Evaluation of the Parents Speak Up National Campaign (PSUNC): Focus Groups with Adolescents. OMB No. 0990-NEW-Office of the Secretary/Office of Public Health and Science/Office Adolescent Pregnancy Programs.
Abstract: The data collection will take place once, over a three-day period, in early 2010. An estimated 2000 adults will be screened to identify parents who are willing for their child to participate in the study and whose child is eligible. Screening will take an estimated 3 minutes, on average. Study participants will total 160 adolescents ages 13-15. Participation in the study will take an estimated 2 hours on average; including time spent responding to a mini-questionnaire and participating in a bulletin board focus group. Participants will self-administer the mini-questionnaire at home on personal computers and will also participate in the focus group online. The specific aim of this study is to assess qualitatively what kinds of information about sex adolescents want to hear from their parents and their perspectives on the factors that either hinder or facilitate effective communication.
