This is a request for a revision of the, "Awareness and Beliefs about Cancer (ABC) Survey." The objective of the proposed study is gather data about American adults' awareness and beliefs about cancer. The ultimate goal is to determine how individuals' perceptions of cancer may influence their decisions to report signs and symptoms to health care providers, perhaps affecting the disease stage of diagnosis and the effectiveness of treatment. This project also offers an opportunity to compare data from the United States to international data. Culturally and language-adapted versions of this instrument have been administered in eight other countries. Data may inform theory-based, multilevel behavioral interventions that promote symptom reporting and early diagnosis of cancer. The survey instrument incorporates factors such as demographic variables, beliefs, and perception of access to health care in the context of decision making. The project asks specific questions about screening and care seeking behaviors that will inform understanding of preferences for participation in health care decisions and will generate insights to improve cancer survival. A representative sample (approximately 1,500 respondents) of the population aged 50+ will be surveyed using a standardized measure of cancer awareness and beliefs. This request is to include cellphone-only households in the ABC survey; the original request was to survey only landline households.

Miscellaneous Actions
This is a revision due to program change which is the result of action by NCI. This revision expands the methodology to include cellphone-only households in the ABC survey so as to gain a representative sample. This is in addition to the already approved landline households. To date, no information collection has begun because it is important to collect both the landline and cellphone-only household data at the same time. Concurrent data collection helps to maintain comparability of the landline and cellphone data, increasing the likelihood that the two groups can be combined in one larger, data set. Additionally, due to budget constraints a slightly smaller sample is being proposed thus maintaining the same costs to the government as the original submission. Although the number of participants would decrease by 500, the total estimate of burden hours would increase. This increase reflects the need to contact and screen more people to reach cell phone-only participants. This is a request for 1,667 hours, which is an increase of 333 hours from the previous approval (a total of 1,334 burden hours).
