    Proposed Project: Evaluation of the Parents Speak-Up National 
Campaign: Youth Survey OMB No. 0990-New--Office of Adolescent Pregnancy 
Program.
    Abstract: The Evaluation of the Parents Speak-Up National Campaign 
(PSUNC): Youth Survey is designed to evaluate the Parents Speak-Up 
National Campaign, a campaign designed to encourage parents to talk 
with their children about sexual activity. The campaign includes paid 
and public service announcement (PSA)-type spots, as well as a Web 
site, 4parents.gov. As the campaign aims to increase parent-child 
communication about sex, the purpose of this information collection is 
to measure youth self-reported communication with parents, their 
related attitudes and beliefs about sex, and determine whether their 
parents' exposure to PSUNC affects the youth reports of communication. 
Parents of the youth in this study are participating in an OMB-
approved, randomized controlled study of the behavioral effects of 
PSUNC message exposure.
    This collection is follow-up of youth aged 13-15 whose parents 
participated in the parent efficacy study for the campaign. We are 
requesting a 2 year clearance.
