Abstract
Informed Consent Forms (ICFs) are an essential component of survey research used to provide participants with necessary information and the impact of participating in the study. With increased legal and ethical liability to participants, the length of ICFs has increased over recent decades. This methods note explores the impact of ICF length on participant outcomes and participant preferences.
