Executive Order 12862 directs Federal
agencies that provide significant
services directly to the public to survey
customers to determine the kind and
quality of services they need and their
level of satisfaction with existing
services. The Centers for Disease
Control and Prevention (CDC) seeks
approval to conduct usability surveys
on CDC Web sites, social media, mobilebased or other electronic
communication channels hosting CDC
content on an ongoing basis.
It is important for CDC to ensure that
health information, interventions, and
programs at CDC are based on sound
science, objectivity, and continuous
customer input. The CDC Web sites,
social media, mobile-based or other
electronic communication channels
hosting CDC content must be designed
to be easy to use, easy to access, and
effective providers of health information
and resources to our target audiences.
CDC is requesting renewal of our
existing 3-year generic clearance, with
revisions, in order to carry out its
mission. This revised proposal requests
clearance for usability surveys on the
Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention (CDC) Web site and, in
addition, social media, mobile-based or
other electronic communication
channels hosting CDC content. With the
previous Usability Evaluation package,
various groups around the agency were
able to conduct useful surveys assessing
the usability of a variety of CDC Web
sites. These surveys covered important
CDC programs and topics, such as
Seasonal Flu, Tuberculosis, HIV, STDs,
and Chronic Diseases. The CDC.gov
Homepage and other CDC Web sites
were redesigned based on usability
surveys conducted within this package

and the resulting designs improved
performance for Web site users and won
numerous awards, both within and
outside of, the Federal government
space. The next step is to continue
usability surveys on more Web sites,
staying abreast of changes in target
audience needs and online behavior as
well as survey users of CDC social
media, mobile-based or other electronic
communication channels hosting CDC
content that currently exist or will
emerge during the life of this package.
CDC is currently using mobile Web
sites, text messaging, online quizzes,
widgets, podcasts, eCards, online video,
motion graphics, blogs, syndicated
content, and other communication
channels and will continue to explore
other channels which provide CDC
content to target audiences when,
where, and how they want and need it.
As new channels emerge, CDC will
explore using them to deliver its
content.
Usability surveys determine how well
CDC’s Web site, social media, mobilebased or other electronic
communication channels hosting CDC
content are performing. Observation and
data collection on how users interact
with the Web site or other electronic
communication channels hosting CDC
content are critical in ensuring that
users can find information, that the Web
site or other electronic communication
channels are easy to use and designed
to meet the needs of specific audiences.
This package requests clearance for two
types of surveys: Remote or in person.
Remote surveys will collect data about
how participants interact with CDC’s
Web site, social media, mobile-based or
other electronic communication
channels hosting CDC content. Users
will take the survey at their home or
work computers. In person surveys will
have participants take the survey in a
central location where their data can be
captured electronically, as with the
remote survey, but also the participants
can be directly observed. The direct
observation of in person surveys allows
for enhanced collection of information

such as observation of facial expressions
and listening to verbal feedback. This
package provides a list of generic tasks
and questions for the surveys that can
be used to develop a survey for a
specific CDC Web site, social media,
mobile-based or other electronic
communication channel hosting CDC
content. Screening questions (comprised
of demographic, introductory, or core
questions) are also included in the
package, and a subset of these screening
questions will be used to create the
proper sample for each usability survey.

channels meet customer and partner
priorities, build CDC’s brand, and
contribute to CDC health impact goals.

CDC Web site, social media, mobilebased or other electronic

Generic clearance is needed to ensure
that CDC can continuously improve its
Web sites, social media, mobile-based or
other electronic communication
channels hosting CDC content through
regular surveys developed from these
pre-defined questions.
