Consent Form Template

1. Introduction

The permission form gives potential research subjects enough written information to determine whether or not to engage in a study based on a description of the proposed research and the nature of the participation asked.
At the top of the first page, the form should be clearly labeled "Consent to Participate in Research" in bold type. The research title should be descriptive rather than technical. To define the core and any additional parts of informed consent, section titles should be utilized.

3. Tips for Consent Form
The informed consent document should briefly describe the research as described in the IRB application.
1) Present the study details in the second (you) or third (he/she) person. When possible, avoid using the first person (I).
2) At the end of the informed consent document, include a statement of agreement.
3) The consent document must match the information provided in the IRB application.
