Proposed Collection; 60-day Comment Request: Quantification of 
Behavioral and Physiological Effects of Drugs Using a Mobile Scalable 
Device

    Summary: In compliance with the requirement of Section 
3506(c)(2)(A) of the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, for opportunity 
for public comment on proposed data collection projects, the National 
Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA), the National Institutes of Health 
(NIH), will publish periodic summaries of proposed projects to be 
submitted to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) for review and 
approval.
    Written comments and/or suggestions from the public and affected 
agencies are invited on one or more of the following points: (1) 
Whether the proposed collection of information is necessary for the 
proper performance of the function of the agency, including whether the 
information will have practical utility; (2) The accuracy of the 
agency's estimate of the burden of the proposed collection of 
information, including the validity of the methodology and assumptions 
used; (3) Ways to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the 
information to be collected; and (4) Ways to minimize the burden of the 
collection of information on those who are to respond, including the 
use of appropriate automated, electronic, mechanical, or other 
technological collection techniques or other forms of information 
technology.
    To Submit Comments and For Further Information: To obtain a copy of 
the data collection plans and instruments, submit comments in writing, 
or request more information on the proposed project, contact NIDA 
Program Official: Dr. Steve Gust, National Institute on Drug Abuse,

instruments must be requested in writing.
    Comments Due Date: Comments regarding this information collection 
are best assured of having their full effect if received within 60-days 
of the date of this publication.
    Proposed Collection: Quantification of Behavioral and Physiological 
Effects of Drugs Using a Mobile Scalable Device, 0925-New, National 
Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA), National Institutes of Health (NIH).
    Need and Use of Information Collection: This study will examine the

effectiveness of a mobile scalable device to detect the impairing 
effects of different drugs. The primary purpose of the data collected 
is to determine eligibility in a driving simulation study and to verify 
the effectiveness of the experimental manipulations. The findings will 
provide valuable information concerning the utility and effectiveness 
of mobile, smartphone/tablet-based neurocognitive assessment that can 
provide a multifactorial evaluation of cognitive functioning associated 
with impaired driving.
    OMB approval is requested for 18 months. There are no costs to 
respondents other than their time. The total annualized burden hours 
are 58.
