The New Executive and Appendix Template (NEAT) Study

Informed Consent Clinical Trial

Official title:
The NEAT Study: An Examination of a Novel Consent Form Design in a Real-world Setting

Clinical Trial Summary

There is evidence that the current design and content provided by most biomedical research informed consent documents do not consistently meet the expectations researchers place on them to effectively inform research participants of information thought to be most important in facilitating their ability to make informed decisions about participation. The need for revisions to the informed consent document design is supported by empirical research.This pilot study will examine the effectiveness of the New Executive and Appendix Template (NEAT) form when used in the consent process for individuals participating in the Atherosclerosis Risk in Communities (ARIC) Neurocognitive Study.

Clinical Trial Description

The importance of informed consent is to ensure that participants in clinical research are provided the opportunity to make autonomous choices is a paramount ethical premise in human research. The effectiveness of consent document design and consent process to accurately and fully convey the elements of informed consent is critical and deserves further study. Development of an improved informed consent document design for clinical studies would be a valuable contribution to human research. Chunking sentences or phrases in text into related groupings resulted in a positive significant improvement in reading comprehension among students with poor reading skills. Because the information contained in consent documents can be complex, detailed, and novel for potential research participants, the use of a modified form of chunking may be an effective and a low cost way of improving comprehension of the elements of consent. Specifically, the primary objective of the study is to determine if participants who receive the NEAT form report greater comprehension at the end of the consent process, than participants who receive a standard form. ;
