    The Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) is conducting a new study to assess the strength capabilities of children, in compliance with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995. They have submitted a request for approval to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) and invite public comments by February 18, 2021. The study, in partnership with the University of Michigan, will collect data from nearly 800 children aged 3 months to 5 years to update strength data that was last gathered over 40 years ago. This information will help improve child safety standards and designs for consumer products.
