Proposed Collection Title: Adolescent Brain & Cognitive Development (ABCD) Study^SM —Audience Feedback Teams, 0925 –NEW, exp., date XX/XX/XXXX, National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA), National Institutes of Health (NIH).

Need and Use of Information Collection: The purpose of this information collection request is to solicit audience feedback to improve the data collection process for the Adolescent Brain Cognitive Development (ABCD) Study. Started in 2015, the ABCD Study® follows a cohort of over 10,000 young people from pre-adolescence into adulthood to understand how growing brains are shaped by experiences and biology. To prepare for each year's Study data collection, the National Institute of Health is collecting audience feedback on a selection of survey questions and research protocols. Parents/caregivers and teens who are the same age as the study cohort members but who are not Study participants will review proposed questions and give feedback on questions' clarity and acceptability. Recommendations from these findings help the ABCD Study team improve their protocol for a more-successful data collection.

Audience feedback activities will include a mix of asynchronous and scheduled, live data collection: web-based survey activities, virtual discussion boards, individual interviews, and discussions groups. Assembling a cohort of audience feedback participants who are familiar with the ABCD Study and participate in multiple data collection activities minimizes the burden required to familiarize new participants with the purpose of the Study and the expectations for audience feedback.

OMB approval is requested for 3 years. There are no costs to respondents other than their time. The total estimated annualized burden hours are 172.
