Information Collection Request Title: Prevention Communication Formative Research-Revision-OMB No. 0990-0281-Office of Disease Prevention and Health Promotion.
Abstract: The Office of Disease Prevention and Health Promotion's (ODPHP) focus includes developing and disseminating prevention information to the public. ODPHP faces increasingly urgent interest in finding effective ways to communicate health information to America's diverse population. As a federal government agency, ODPHP strives to be responsive to the needs of America's diverse audiences while simultaneously serving all Americans across a range of channels, from print through new communication technologies. To carry out its prevention information efforts, ODPHP is committed to conducting formative and usability research to provide guidance on the development and implementation of its disease prevention and health promotion communication and education efforts.
The information collected will be used by ODPHP to improve its communication, products, and services that support key office activities including: Healthy People, Dietary Guidelines for Americans, Physical Activity Guidelines for Americans, healthfinder.gov, and increasing health care quality and patient safety. ODPHP communicates through its Web sites ( www.healthfinder.gov, www.HealthyPeople.gov, www.health.gov ) and through other channels including social media, print materials, interactive training modules, and reports.
The primary methods of data collection will be qualitative and may include in-depth interviews, focus groups, web-based surveys, card sorting, and various forms of usability testing of materials and interactive tools to assess the public's understanding of disease prevention and health promotion content, responses to prototype materials, and barriers to effective use.
The research methods outlined in this supporting statement have five major purposes:
1. To obtain useful target audience information for the formation of messages and materials
2. To further explore messages and materials in contexts that would be most beneficial for target audiences
3. To identify and verify audience segmentation strategies for providing disease prevention and health promotion information
4. To inform the development and refinement of user-friendly Web sites and other interactive tools
5. To identify user challenges and obstacles to accessing health information to guide Web site, material, and interactive tool development and refinement
The program is requesting a 3-year clearance.
Likely Respondents: Respondents are likely to be either consumers or health professionals.
