SUMMARY: Under the provisions of Section 3507(a)(1)(D) of the Paperwork 
Reduction Act of 1995, the National Institute on Drug Abuse, National 
Institutes of Health (NIH) has submitted to the Office of Management 
and Budget (OMB) a request for review and approval of the information

18612-18613 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. The National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA), 
National Institutes of Health, may not conduct or sponsor, and the 
respondent is not required to respond to, an information collection 
that has been extended, revised, or implemented on or after October 1, 
1995, unless it displays a currently valid OMB control number.
    Direct Comments To OMB: Written comments and/or suggestions 
regarding the item(s) contained in this notice, especially regarding 
the estimated public burden and associated response time, should be 
directed to the: Office of Management and Budget, Office of Regulatory 
Affairs, [email protected] or by fax to 202-395-6974,

    Proposed Collection: Web-based Media Literacy Parent Training for 
Substance Use Prevention in Rural Locations, 0925-New, National 
Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA), National Institutes of Health (NIH).
    Need and Use of Information Collection: This study will develop a 
web-based media literacy substance use prevention intervention for use 
with parents and their elementary school children (approximately ages 
7-12), and will evaluate the program in a randomized controlled trial 
to establish program efficacy in six rural communities in North 
Carolina and Texas. The primary objectives of the study are to assess 
the efficacy of a media literacy education program that is specifically 
designed to overcome barriers to prevention efforts in rural 
communities, and to provide the scientific basis for establishing the 
program, Media Detective Family, as an evidence-based substance use 
prevention curriculum. The findings will provide valuable information 
concerning: (1) The appropriateness of using technology for substance 
use prevention programming (i.e., internet, Smartphone, or tablet-based 
applications) to reach rural families with elementary school-aged 
children;

[[Page 35041]]

(2) improvements in parents' and children's critical thinking skills 
associated with intervention exposure; (3) improvements in parent-child 
communication about substances and the media associated with 
intervention exposure; and (4) reductions in children's behavioral 
intentions to use substances associated with intervention exposure.
    OMB approval is requested for two years. There are no costs to 
respondents other than their time. There are no capital, operating, 
and/or maintenance costs. The total estimated annualized burden hours 
are 1067.
