received within 60 days of the date of
this publication.
Proposed Collection: Interactive
Informed Consent for Pediatric Clinical
Trials, 0925-New, National Heart, Lung,
and Blood Institute (NHLBI), National
Institutes of Health (NIH).
Need and Use of Information
Collection: This study will compare
parents’ and children’s understanding of
information about a hypothetical
clinical trial presented using either a
standard paper consent document or an
interactive computer-based consent
program. Parents’ and children’s
understanding, regardless of whether
they received the standard consent or
the interactive computer-based program,
will be assessed by face-to-face
interview. In addition, parents’ and
children’s perceptions of, and
satisfaction with, the information
presented will be evaluated by
completion of a short questionnaire. The
primary hypothesis to be tested is that
interactive computer-based research
consent information is better
understood and accepted by parents and
children compared with the standard
paper consent document. Given that
many individuals have difficulty
reading and interpreting standard
written consent documents, this
technology holds promise as a means to
optimize the consent and assent process
particularly among individuals with low
literacy and numeracy skills.
OMB approval is requested for 18
months. There are no costs to
respondents other than their time. The
total estimated annualized burden hours
are 201.
