Terms of Clearance:
This collection is approved with the understanding that the results of the 2021 NYTS should not be directly compared to previous or subsequent years of data collection that primarily collect data on school campuses. Comparability will be compromised by the change in methods of survey administration and data collection. If the COVID-19 pandemic continues to affect data collection methods for 2022, CDC will seek OMB approval for the alternate method. This clearance is based on the continued expectation that the survey instrument will be revised to maintain relevance with emerging tobacco use behaviors control policies. Developmental testing of new survey content and incremental improvements to existing wording on the approved instrument (including dropping/adding of a small proportion of the questions), in a manner such that the overall content remains consistent with topics already covered, may be approved through non-substantive change requests. Other types of changes may require revisions and formal OMB review/approval.

Abstract:
The National Youth Tobacco Survey (NYTS) is a self-administered, annual, cross-sectional survey of U.S. students enrolled in 6th through 12th grades who attend public and private schools. It is conducted in the spring semester of each school year (typically February-May). The NYTS collects information on student use of various tobacco products, knowledge of and attitudes toward tobacco, exposure to secondhand tobacco smoke and secondhand e-cigarette aerosol, exposure to pro- and anti-tobacco influences, and other tobacco-related measures. This revision includes an increase to the number of school districts and schools contacted to adjust further for nonresponse in meeting target sample size and an increase in the number of respondents for instrument testing to allow more cognitive testing than the previously approved collection.
