Youth (18+) Follow up Consent Form for the Evaluation of the Public Education Campaign on Teen Tobacco (ExPECTT II)

We are talking to kids all over the United States about a research study sponsored by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration’s Center for Tobacco Products.

The survey asks teenagers what they think about tobacco use, media use, and other behaviors that are both legal and illegal. About [ADD NUMBER] youth are being asked to take this survey. This survey is voluntary and is part of a research study conducted by RTI International.

You will be asked to provide your consent to participate in this survey. Because you are 18 years old, it is not necessary for your parent or legal guardian to give their permission for you to take this survey.

To help us protect your information, we have obtained a Certificate of Confidentiality. This means that the researchers cannot provide information that may identify you in a court of law or other legal proceeding. However, researchers may share your information with the FDA or individuals who are responsible for evaluating this study. You should understand that the Certificate does NOT stop reporting that some federal, state or local laws require such as reporting of child abuse, communicable diseases, and threats to harm yourself or others. The Certificate also does NOT prevent your information from being used for other research if allowed by federal regulations. However, no information will be shared or used for other research that could identify you, such as name or date of birth. Finally, you should understand that the Certificate does not prevent you or a member of your family from willingly releasing information about yourself or your involvement in this research.

The survey will last between 35 and 45 minutes, depending on your responses. We may contact you again in the future. It is up to you to decide if you would like to take any future surveys.

You will enter your responses to the questions directly into the questionnaire. Your name will be kept private. Your answers will be labeled with a special number instead of your name so that only research staff will know these are your answers. No one will see your answers to any of these questions. We will not share any information you give us with your parents, or anyone outside the research team. All of your answers will be kept private to the fullest extent allowable by law by the technology used.  No absolute guarantees can be made regarding the interception of data sent via the Internet. However, we are taking extensive precautions to protect the confidentiality of your data.
