1. This generic IC is for occasional qualitative surveys to yield anecdotal information about the particular experiences and opinions of members of the public, primarily staff at respondent banks or bank customers. Information in these surveys will be anecdotal in nature, that is, no probability samples are expected and results are not expected to be representative of respondents not sampled. Such surveys will not produce statistically valid and reliable data. 2. Requests for specific occasional surveys under the generic IC should answer the following questions: what is the purpose of the survey; what methodology will be used (e.g., how will it be conducted); who are the target respondents; what is the burden estimate (# of respondents, hour burden per response, total burden); and how will the results be analyzed and used. A copy of the survey instrument will be included with each request. 3. FDIC states that the results of these occasional qualitative surveys will be used only qualitatively to help improve the way FDIC relates to its clients, to develop agendas for regulatory or statutory change, in some cases to gather anecdotal information (particular cases) about how particular policies or programs are working or perceived, and generally to develop "hunches" or hypotheses to be explored quantitatively by statistically reliable methods. Because the data collected through these occasional qualitative surveys are not generalizable to a larger population, the respondents do not represent any larger class, no quantitative findings are to be published. 4. Requests for specific collections under this generic clearance will be submitted through the generic-clearance capability of ROCIS. Complete requests will be reviewed in ten working days. Proceed on a request only after an affirmative response.
