    Information Collection Request Title: Examining Consumer and 
Producer Responses to Restaurant Menu Labeling Requirements.
    Abstract: The Office of the Assistant Secretary for Planning and 
Evaluation (ASPE) is requesting approval on a new information 
collection request from the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) for 
purposes of conducting a study about calorie labeling on restaurant 
menus.
    Previous research demonstrates that consumers respond both to 
information about their options and the way those options are 
presented. Accordingly, restaurants can utilize presentation effects on 
menus and menu boards to influence consumer perceptions and choices. By 
analyzing the consumer response to menu options and design, this study 
will offer a wide-ranging view of the consumer responses to menu 
labeling requirements.

Likely Respondents

Online Survey

    The goal of the online survey is to evaluate the effect that the 
calorie labeling will have on consumer choices when ordering at 
restaurants.
