SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Title; Associated Form; and OMB Number: QuickCompass of Sexual Assault Prevention and Response Personnel (QSAPR); OMB Control Number 0704-0603.
Needs and Uses: The QuickCompass of Sexual Assault Prevention and Response Personnel (QSAPR) assesses perceived reprisal or retaliation to incidents (professionally or otherwise), access to sufficient physical and mental health services as a result of the nature of their work, access to installation and unit commanders, access to both victims' and alleged offenders' immediate commander(s), responsiveness of commanders to Sexual Assault Response Coordinators (SARCs), support and services provided to sexual assault victims, understanding of others of the process and their willingness to assist, adequacy of training received by SARCs and Sexual Assault Prevention and Response (SAPR) Victims' Advocates (VAs) to effectively perform their duties, and other factors affecting the ability of SARCs and SAPR VAs to perform their duties. In addition, the results of the survey will assess progress, identify shortfalls, and revise policies and programs as needed. Data will be aggregated and reported triennially in perpetuity. Ultimately, the study will provide a report to Congress and all of the data, programs, and computational details necessary for replication and peer review.
Affected Public: Individuals or households.
Annual Burden Hours: 1,667.
Number of Respondents: 5,000.
Responses per Respondent: 1.
Annual Responses: 5,000.
Average Burden per Response: 20 minutes.
Frequency: As required.
The target population for this survey will be all SARCs, VAs, and Special Victims' Counsels (SVCs)/Victims' Legal Counsels (VLCs) who are either Active Duty, Reserves/National Guard, or a DoD civilian employee. The survey will solicit insights into characteristics of SAPR programs to better understand how responders are trained for their position and their perceptions of how well their program is supported and executed.
The full online survey system will be hosted internally on Office of People Analytics (OPA) contractor servers. Participants will receive email communications notifying them about the importance of the survey, the confidential nature of the data collection, how the data will be used, and how to access the website. Respondents will be given a unique link and passcode to enter the survey in all email communications. They will receive up to no more than seven emails during the survey fielding. The reminder emails will be sent only to those selected sample members who have not yet responded to the survey or who are not active refusers. Once they complete the questions on the survey, there is a submit button to send their response.
OPA weights the eligible respondents in order to make inferences about the entire population of SAPR Personnel. The weighting methodology utilizes standard weighting processes.
