This proposed information collection was previously published in the Federal Register, September 8, 2011, Volume 76, Number 174, page 55690, and allowed 60-days for public comment. No public comments were received. The purpose of this notice is to allow an additional 30 days for public comment. Potential persons who are to respond to the collection of information are not required to respond to the collection of information unless it displays a currently valid OMB control number. Proposed Collection: Title: The SSA-NIH Collaboration to Improve the Disability Determination Process: Validation of IRT-CAT tools. Type of Information Collection Request: NEW. Need and Use of Information Collection: The Epidemiology and Biostatistics section in RMD will be collecting information through a contractor (Boston University- Health and Disability Research Institute (BU-HDR)) and subcontractor for validation of the Computer Adaptive Tests which are being developed to assist in the SSA disability determination process. The utilization of CAT technology could potentially allow the SSA to collect more relevant and precise data about human functioning in a faster, more efficient fashion. To validate the CAT assessments that have been developed, the contractor will administer both the BU-HDR CAT and established legacy instruments in a small sample of adults who report their current employment status as "permanently disabled". Individuals will complete the CAT tools for the functional domains of Physical Demands and Interpersonal Interactions along with established legacy instruments. For the domain of physical function, individuals will complete the BU-HDR CAT; the PROMIS Item Bank v 1.0-Physical Functioning (copyright) PROMIS Health Organization and PROMIS Cooperative Group; and, The Short Form (36) Health Survey<SUP>TM</SUP> (SF-36). For the domain of interpersonal interactions, individuals will complete the BU-HDR CAT, the SF-36 and the BASIS-24(copyright) (Behavior and Symptom Identification Scale). Data collected will be used to validate the BU-HDR CAT tools. Without this information, completion of the BU-HDR CAT tools will not be possible. Frequency of Response: Once. Affected Public: Individuals who have opted in to participate in web surveys through a survey research firm. Type of Respondents: Adults who indicate "permanently disabled" as a working status. The annual reporting burden is as follows: | 2011-12-12 | 2011 | 12 | https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2011/12/12/2011-31828/submission-for-omb-review-comment-request-the-ssa-nih-collaboration-to-improve-the-disability | https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2011-12-12/pdf/2011-31828.pdf | Health and Human Services Department; National Institutes of Health | 221,353 | Under the provisions of Section 3507(a)(1)(D) of the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, the Clinical Research Center, the National Institutes of Health has submitted to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) a request to review and approve the... |
