Research Consent Form

Research Consent Form Template

If you are conducting interviews, making observations, or hosting focus groups as part of a research study or communications strategy, you must obtain written consent from people whose words you’d like to publish. Even if you create a fake name or pseudonym for the person you are quoting, you still need their permission to do so. This is an important part of ethical, human-based research.

We created the following Research Consent Form template to help you obtain permission from people you interview and want to quote:
