Multi-site Evaluation of Foster Youth Programs

Consent to Participate in Research

  • What is this study?

The purpose of this study is to learn more about the services foster youth receive and how they are doing after they leave the foster care system. The study is also interested in how special programs are helping youth with their education, employment, relationships, and family formation. The Administration for Children and Families (ACF) of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services is funding this project. About 1400 foster youth will be asked to help us with this effort. Each foster youth chosen to be a part of this study has the permission of his or her social service agency.


I will tell you all about the study and try to answer any questions you have. When I have answered all of your questions, you can decide whether to take part or not in the study. This process is called “informed consent.”


  • Who is doing this study?

Researchers from the Urban Institute in Washington, D.C. and its partners -- the Chapin Hall Center for Children and the National Opinion Research Center, both at the University of Chicago -- are conducting this study. If you have any questions about this study, please feel free to contact:



Matt Stagner, Ph.D.

  • What will we ask you to do?

I am an interviewer who is employed by the National Opinion Research Center. If you agree to be part of this study, I will interview you now. My questions will take about 90 minutes. We will then contact you periodically to keep in touch. We would like to interview you in one year and two years from now and possibly again after that. We can speak with you in your home or wherever is convenient for you.



  • What kind of questions will we ask you?

We will ask you questions about your experiences before, during, and after your time in foster care. We will also ask you about the services you received while in foster care. Some questions deal with delinquent behavior, sexual behavior, substance use, and past abuse. Other questions will ask about your physical and mental health status, your reading ability, relationships with others, living arrangements, work history, your education, future goals, and services you received in foster care.

  • Will the information you give be confidential?

We will keep private the information you give us in response to our questions. We will also keep private any information we get from other sources. Only the researchers at the Urban Institute and the University of Chicago will see your information. We will keep your information private by:


  • Not putting your name on any written records except for the consent form;

  • Keeping your consent form separated from your other information;

  • Keeping all information about you in a locked drawer or in a password-protected computer that is secure;

  • Only letting people on the research team look at your information;

  • Not using your name or any other identifying information in our reports;

  • Summarizing the data of all youth in the study to make sure your privacy is protected.


We have a Certificate of Confidentiality from the Federal Government for this study to help protect your privacy. This means that the researchers are authorized to protect the privacy of the individuals who are the subjects of this research by withholding their names and other identifying characteristics from all persons not connected with the conduct of the research.


Even if subpoenaed by a court, the researchers will use the Certificate to resist any demands for information that would identify you. However, the Certificate cannot be used to resist a demand for information from personnel of the U.S. Government that is used for auditing or evaluating Federally funded projects.


You should understand that a Certificate does not prevent you or a family member from voluntarily releasing information about yourself or your involvement in the research. If you provide your written consent to an insurer, employer or other person you wish to receive the research information, then the researchers may not use the Certificate to withhold that information.


  • Will we get information from other sources besides you?

If you agree to take part in the study, we will ask your permission to interview your caseworker, look at information about you in administrative records such as social service and DSS records, public assistance records, motor vehicle department records, and credit bureau records. This information will not be shared with anyone outside of the research team.


  • How will we use the information collected from you?

The information we get from all foster youth in this study will be used for purposes of analysis, to write reports, and to contact you for follow-up interviews. General things we learn from the study may also be presented at conferences, professional meetings, and in written articles. Also, the Federal Government will make the information available through public use data files. Your name or identifying information will not be part of any report, presentation, article, or public use data file.


  • What risks are there to you if you participate in this study?

Participating in this study may have some possible risks for you. Talking about your experiences may cause you to feel uncomfortable. Also, it is highly unlikely but possible, that someone could find out that you were in the study. To avoid this risk, we will keep all information you give us private and confidential. There is, however, one exception to keeping your information private and confidential. If you tell me that you are currently being abused, that you might harm yourself or might harm someone else, I may need to tell the proper authorities.

  • What benefits are there to you if you participate in this study?

A benefit of participating is that the study gives you a chance to tell people about your experiences before and after foster care and talk about the services you received while in foster care. Many youth enjoy and appreciate the chance to know that their opinions are listened to and may be used to make services better. Your information will benefit others who are now growing up away from their families.


  • Will you receive payment if you participate in the study?

If you agree to take part, you will receive $30 for this interview. You will receive this even if you do not answer all of the questions we ask you, or if you stop the interview early. You will also receive payment for the follow-up interviews.


  • If you agree to participate today, can you change your mind later?

If you agree to be in this study now, you may withdraw at any time later on without any loss of services or any other negative consequence. You also may choose not to answer any questions you don’t want to answer and still remain in the study. If you change your mind about taking part in the study, or to answer any specific question, this will not have any impact on the services you can or will be offered by agencies in your state. You will receive a copy of this form to keep.


Agreement to Participate


I, _____________________ [print your name], understand the procedures described above. My questions have been answered to my satisfaction, and I agree to participate in this study. I agree to participate in all three interviews, but understand that I can change my mind and drop out of the study at any time. I understand that future interviews may be conducted in-person or by telephone. I have been given a copy of this form.

CHECK: IF SITE=LA CLUSTER 2 (ESTEP), GO TO WOODCOCK-JOHNSON TEST

AE7. Each of the next set of questions will ask you for your best guess at the chance that something will happen in the future.


You can think of the percent chance that some event will occur as the number of chances out of 100 that the event will take place. If you think that something is impossible, consider it as having a 0 percent chance.


If you think the event is possible but unlikely, you might say there is a 3 percent chance or a 15 percent chance. If you think the chance is pretty even, you can say there is a 46 percent chance or perhaps a 52 percent chance. If you think the event is likely, but not certain, you might say there is a 78 percent chance or a 94 percent chance. If you think it is certain to happen, give it a 100 percent chance. Just to make sure that you are comfortable with the scale, I'd like you to do a few practice questions, and explain your answer to me.

WOODCOCK-JOHNSON ASSESSMENT



Reading Ability (Woodcock-Johnson Letter-Word Identification Test)




The Woodcock-Johnson Test III Tests of Achievement, one of the most widely used tests of achievement in children in the United States, is comprised of twelve tests in the standard battery and twenty-two tests in the extended battery. One of these tests (Test 1, Letter-Word Identification) was chosen for administration in this study for a grade-level assessment of reading ability.


Examples of questions asked of children follows:


  1. This is the letter "P." Find the letter "P" down here (referencing the tablet; interviewer enters answer in CAPI).
