Clinical Trial Description

The National Cancer Institute s (NCI) Division of Cancer Control and Population Sciences (DCCPS), Behavioral Research Program (BRP) proposes conducting formative research as an integral part of the development of a new data collection instrument, the Family Life, Activity, Sun, Health, and Eating (FLASHE) survey. Specifically, NCI proposes conducting cognitive testing with the objective of identifying potential sources of measurement or response errors within the questionnaires. Many of the questions are new questions that have not been previously tested, or previously-used questions that have never been used with a teenage population. ;
