Informed Consent Forms

Confidential Research	Sample Consent Form Used when: Subject is being interviewed Subject is being recorded (audio/video) Face-to-face interaction between researcher and subject Identifying information is being collected from subject (name, ss #, race, etc.) There are many circumstances where a researcher may choose to protect a subject's identity by not referring to them by name in their research (i.e., use a pseudonym). This serves to make their responses confidential, but is not the same as conducting an anonymous study. There should be a signature block for the researcher(s) and the participant.
Anonymous Research	Sample Cover Letter Used when: Subject's identity to remain "anonymous" ("Anonymous" meaning that the researcher can in NO WAY identify the subjects) No identifying information is being requested A survey/questionnaire is being administered and the researcher will not be present while the surveys/questionnaires are being completed or that the participants will place their completed surveys/questionnaires in an envelope/box provided to ensure anonymity (Must be stated in the protocol and in the cover letter.) There should be a signature block ONLY for the researcher-- the participant should not sign anything in an anonymous study.
"Web" Confidential	Sample "Web/Email" Consent Form Recommended for use with email and Qualtrics for Confidential Research.
"Web" Anonymous	Sample "Web/Email" Cover Letter Recommended for use when using Qualtrics for Anonymous Surveys.
