DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICES
Centers for Disease Control and Prevention
[60-Day-20-0822; Docket No. CDC-2019-0082]
Proposed Data Collection Submitted for Public Comment and
Recommendations
AGENCY: Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), Department of
Health and Human Services (HHS).
ACTION: Notice with comment period.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), as part
of its continuing efforts to reduce public burden and maximize the
utility of government information, invites the general public and other
Federal agencies to take this opportunity to comment on proposed and/or
continuing information collections, as required by the Paperwork
Reduction Act of 1995. This notice invites comment on a proposed
information collection titled The National Intimate Partner and Sexual
Violence Survey
[[Page 54149]]
(NISVS). CDC will collect information about individual's experiences of
sexual violence, stalking and intimate partner violence and information
about the health consequences of these forms of violence. CDC produces
national and state level prevalence estimates of these types of
violence.
DATES: CDC must receive written comments on or before December 9, 2019.
ADDRESSES: You may submit comments, identified by Docket No. CDC-2019-
0082 by any of the following methods:
Federal eRulemaking Portal: Regulations.gov. Follow the
instructions for submitting comments.
Mail: Jeffrey M. Zirger, Information Collection Review
Office, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, 1600 Clifton Road
NE, MS-D74, Atlanta, Georgia 30329.
Instructions: All submissions received must include the agency name
and Docket Number. CDC will post, without change, all relevant comments
to Regulations.gov.
Please note: Submit all comments through the Federal
eRulemaking portal (regulations.gov) or by U.S. mail to the address
listed above.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: To request more information on the
proposed project or to obtain a copy of the information collection plan
and instruments, contact Jeffrey M. Zirger, Information Collection
Review Office, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, 1600 Clifton
Road NE, MS-D74, Atlanta, Georgia 30329; phone: 404-639-7570; Email:

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Under the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995
(PRA) (44 U.S.C. 3501-3520), Federal agencies must obtain approval from
the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) for each collection of
information they conduct or sponsor. In addition, the PRA also requires
Federal agencies to provide a 60-day notice in the Federal Register
concerning each proposed collection of information, including each new
proposed collection, each proposed extension of existing collection of
information, and each reinstatement of previously approved information
collection before submitting the collection to the OMB for approval. To
comply with this requirement, we are publishing this notice of a
proposed data collection as described below.
The OMB is particularly interested in comments that will help:
1. Evaluate whether the proposed collection of information is
necessary for the proper performance of the functions of the agency,
including whether the information will have practical utility;
2. Evaluate 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. Enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to
be collected; and
4. Minimize the burden of the collection of information on those
who are to respond, including through the use of appropriate automated,
electronic, mechanical, or other technological collection techniques or
other forms of information technology, e.g., permitting electronic
submissions of responses.
5. Assess information collection costs
Proposed Project
The National Intimate Partner and Sexual Violence Survey (NISVS)
(OMB control No. 0920-0822, Exp. 02/29/2020)--Revision--National Center
for Injury Prevention and Control (NCIPC), Centers for Disease Control
and Prevention (CDC).
Background and Brief Description
In 2010, the National Intimate Partner and Sexual Violence
Surveillance System (NISVSS) reported that approximately 6.9 million
women and 5.6 million men experienced rape, physical violence and/or
stalking by an intimate partner within the last year. The health care
costs associated with this exceed $5.8 billion each year, nearly $3.9
billion of which is for direct medical and mental health care services.
In order to address this important public health problem, CDC
implemented, beginning in 2010, the National Intimate Partner and
Sexual Violence Surveillance System that produces national and state
level estimates of Intimate Partner Violence (IPV), Sexual Violence
(SV) and stalking on an annual basis.
CDC seeks OMB approval for a three-year period for this revision.
In this revision CDC describes the planned testing of a redesign of the
National Intimate Partner and Sexual Violence Survey (NISVS) and the
approach for collecting NISVS data using multiple data collection modes
and sampling strategies. More specifically, this revision is
requesting: (1) Conduct feasibility testing to assess alternative
design features including the sample frame, mode of response, and
incentive structures that help garner participation and help reduce
nonresponse. (2) Conduct experiments that inform the development of a
protocol for alternative sampling and weighting methods for multi-modal
data collection that will result in the ability to calculate accurate
and reliable national and state-level estimates of SV, IPV, and
stalking. (3) Conduct a pilot data collection to ensure that the
selected optimal alternative sampling methods and multi-modal data
collection approaches for NISVS are ready for full-scale
implementation.
These data will be used only to inform future NISVS data
collections. Results from the feasibility phase experiments may be
prepared for publication, as the findings related to optimal data
collection modes, sampling frames, and incentive structures are likely
to be useful to other federal agencies currently conducting national
data collections. No national prevalence estimates will be generated
from the data collected during the NISVS redesign project. Data are
analyzed using appropriate statistical software to account for the
complexity of the survey design to compute weighted counts,
percentages, and confidence intervals using national-level data. There
are no costs to respondents other than their time. The annual estimated
burden hours are 1,085.
