INTRODUCTION AND INFORMED CONSENT FOR
INTERVIEW RESPONDENTS AGE 18+

IF INTERVIEW RESPONDENT IS NOT SCREENING RESPONDENT,
INTRODUCE YOURSELF AND STUDY AS NECESSARY: Hello, I’m ________,
and I’m working on a nationwide study sponsored by the U.S. Department of
Health and Human Services. You should have received a letter about this study.
(SHOW LEAD LETTER, IF NECESSARY.)
READ THE BOXED INFORMATION BELOW
BEFORE STARTING EVERY INTERVIEW

This year, we are interviewing about 70,000 people across the nation. You have
been randomly chosen to take part. You may choose not to take part in this study,
but no one else can take your place. We will give you $30 when you finish the
interview.
GIVE GRAY STUDY DESCRIPTION TO R IF YOU HAVE NOT ALREADY DONE
SO.
This study asks about tobacco, alcohol, and drug use or non-use, knowledge and
attitudes about drugs, mental health, and other health issues. It takes about an
hour. You will answer most of the questions on the computer, so I will not see your
answers. We are only interested in the combined responses from all 70,000 people,
not just one person’s answers. This is why we do not ask for your name and we
keep your answers separate from your address. RTI may contact you by phone or
mail to ask a few questions about the quality of my work. This is why we ask for
your phone number and current address at the end of the interview.
While the interview has some personal questions, federal law keeps your answers
private. We hope that protecting your privacy will help you to give accurate
answers. You can quit the interview at any time and you can refuse to answer any
questions.
If it is all right with you, let’s get started.
(Can we find a private place to complete the interview?)

INTRODUCTION AND INFORMED CONSENT FOR
INTERVIEW RESPONDENTS AGE 12-17
FIRST, OBTAIN PERMISSION FROM THE PARENT
AND READ THE BOXED INFORMATION BELOW

Your (AGE) year-old child has been selected to be in this study. Your child’s participation is
voluntary. This interview asks about tobacco, alcohol, and drug use or non-use, knowledge
and attitudes about drugs, mental health, and other health related issues. All of your child’s
answers will be confidential and used only for statistical purposes. Since your child will answer
most of the questions on the computer, I will never see the answers, and you are not allowed
to see them either. If it is all right with you, we’ll get started.
(Can we find a private place to complete the interview?)

THEN, READ THE BOXED INFORMATION BELOW BEFORE STARTING EVERY INTERVIEW
WITH A 12-17 YEAR OLD

This year, we are interviewing about 70,000 people across the nation. You have been
randomly chosen to take part. You may choose not to take part in this study, but no one else
