Abstract:
This request is for a nonsubstantive change participant entry and exit surveys for grantees to collect data from participants. We are currently submitting instruments that reflect the following changes compared to the PREP PMAPS Participant Entry and Exit Surveys approved in April 2017: 1) remove sensitive items (by dropping items about oral sex or anal sex, modifying items asking about “vaginal sex” to ask about “sexual intercourse,” and deleting definitions of sexual behaviors); 2) modify and expand existing items related to adulthood preparation subjects; and 3) add items to capture information from youth relevant to the success sequence for poverty prevention. , Additionally, due to the sensitive nature of some of the original questions, the previously approved versions of the surveys required separate versions for middle and high school youth (with not all items administered to middle school youth). Since ACF is proposing to remove the most sensitive questions, separate versions of the surveys are no longer necessary. This request for a nonsubstantive change to the entry and exit surveys decreases the overall burden estimate.
