Project Description

Summary:  View help for Summary Informed consent (IC) is key to generating and maintaining research participants' trust and upholding the ethical principle of respect for persons. Broad consent for future use, wherein researchers ask participants for their permission to share participant-level data and samples collected within the study for purposes loosely related to the study objectives, is central to enabling data and sample reuse. Ensuring that participants understand broad consent-related language is key to maintaining their trust in the study itself and in public health research more generally. To ensure research projects' adherence to core ethical principles, many research centres, ethics review committees (ERCs), and journals ask that studies use templates for informed consent and have different levels of comfort with investigators' deviation from the template language.

Methodology

Sampling:  View help for Sampling We conducted cognitive interviews to explore cohort research participants' understanding of the language in the University of California at Berkeley (UCB) template IC form for biomedical research with participants from long-standing infectious disease cohort studies in Nicaragua, which is linked to UCB, and Colombia, which is not. We used a semi-structured interview guide to assess cohort participants' agreement with broad consent for future use of clinical and genomic data and specimens. Subsequent to the first round of interviews, we used participants’ explanations to modify the broad consent-related language in the IC template and evaluated participants’ understanding of and agreement with the new consent.
