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;
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; and
5. Assess information collection costs.

Control Public Education Campaign,
Tips From Former Smokers (Tips)
campaign. The primary objectives of the
Tips campaign are to encourage smokers
to quit smoking and to encourage
nonsmokers to communicate with
smokers about the dangers of smoking.
Tips airs annually in all U.S. media
markets on broadcast and national cable
TV as well as other media channels
including digital video, online display
and banners, radio, billboards, and other
formats. Tips ads rely on evidencebased paid media advertising that
highlights the negative health
consequences of smoking. Tips primary
target audience is adult smokers; adult
nonsmokers constitute the secondary
audience. Tips paid advertisements are
aimed at providing motivation and
support to smokers to quit, with
information and other resources to
increase smokers’ chances of success in
their attempts to quit smoking. A key
objective for the nonsmoker audience is
to encourage nonsmokers to
communicate with smokers they may
know (including family and friends)
about the dangers of smoking and to
encourage them to quit. Tips ads also
focus on increasing audience’s
knowledge of smoking-related diseases,
intentions to quit, and other related
outcomes.
The goal of the proposed information
collection is to evaluate the reach of the
Tips campaign among intended
audiences and to examine the
effectiveness of these efforts in
impacting specific outcomes that are
targeted by Tips, including quit
attempts and intentions to quit among
smokers, nonsmokers’ communications
about the dangers of smoking, and
knowledge of smoking-related diseases
among both audiences. This will require
customized surveys that will capture all
unique messages and components of
Tips. Information will be collected
through Web-based surveys to be selfadministered by adults 18 and over on
computers in the respondent’s home or
in another convenient location.
Evaluating the impact of the Tips
campaign on behavioral outcomes is
necessary to determine campaign cost
effectiveness and to allow program
planning for the most effective
campaign outcomes. Because Tips
content changes, it is necessary to
evaluate each yearly implementation of
the Tips campaign.
The proposed information collection
will include three survey collections per
year (nine surveys in total) generally
conducted before, during, and after the
Tips campaign in each year. Using the
same methods outlined in the currently
approved information collection (OMB

Control No. 0920–1083, Exp. 3/31/
2023), participants will be recruited
from two sources: (1) An online
longitudinal cohort of adult smokers
and nonsmokers, sampled randomly
from postal mailing addresses in the
United States (address-based sample, or
ABS); and (2) the existing GfK/Ipsos
KnowledgePanel, an established longterm online panel of U.S. adults. All
online surveys, regardless of sample
source, will be conducted via the GfK/
Ipsos KnowledgePanel Web portal for
self-administered surveys.
Information collected by these
surveys include smokers’ and

nonsmokers’ awareness of and exposure
to specific Tips advertisements;
knowledge, attitudes, beliefs related to
smoking and secondhand smoke; and
other marketing exposures. The surveys
will also measure behaviors related to
smoking cessation (among the smokers
in the sample) and behaviors related to
nonsmokers’ encouragement of smokers
to quit smoking, recommendations of
cessation services, and attitudes about
other tobacco and nicotine products.
It is important to evaluate the Tips
campaign in a context that assesses the
dynamic nature of tobacco product
marketing and uptake of various tobacco

products, particularly since these may
affect successful cessation rates. Survey
instruments may be updated to include
new or revised items on relevant topics,
including cigars, noncombustible
tobacco products, and other emerging
trends in tobacco use.
The total response burden is
estimated at 9,308 annual hours.
Approval is requested for three years
between early fall 2023 and December
2026. Participation is voluntary and
there are no costs to respondents other
than their time.
