Summary: Under the provisions of Section 3507(a)(1)(D) of the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, the National Cancer Institute (NCI), the National Institutes of Health (NIH), has submitted to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) a request to review and approve the information collection listed below. This proposed information collection was previously published in the Federal Register on January 27, 2012 (77 FR 4334) and allowed 60-days for public comment. No public comments were received. The purpose of this notice is to allow an additional 30 days for public comment. The National Institutes of Health may not conduct or sponsor, and the respondent is not required to respond to, an information collection that has been extended, revised, or implemented on or after October 1, 1995, unless it displays a currently valid OMB control number.
Proposed Collection: Title: Solar Cell: A Mobile UV Manager for Smart Phones Phase II (NCI). Type of Information Collection Request: New. Need and Use of Information Collection: The overall goal of the study is to design a smart phone application, Solar Cell, which uses smart phone technology to aid users in protecting their skin from damaging ultraviolet radiation (UV) in sunlight, a primary cause of skin cancer. The purpose of this part of the study is to produce, deploy, and evaluate the effectiveness of a state-of-the-art software application for smart phones (i.e., mobile application), “Solar Cell.” This software application supports decision-making related to sun protection and exposure by Americans to reduce the risk of developing skin cancer attributable to chronic and severe UV exposure and developing other cancers attributable to vitamin D deficiency. The Solar Cell mobile smart phone application combines personal and behavior data with geo-spatial data (i.e., UV Index forecast, time, and location) and delivers actionable sun protection advice to reduce risk of skin cancer. Frequency of Response: Once. Affected Public: Individuals. Type of Respondents: Adults (18 and over) from the U.S. population who own Android smart phones. The annual reporting burden is estimated at 308 hours (see Table below). There are no Capital Costs, Operating Costs, and/or Maintenance Costs to report.
