Appendix D. Participant information sheets and consent forms
PARTICIPANT INFORMATION SHEET: STUDENT Title: Investigation of the form design process. To participants: My name is Louise Yeung and I am doing my thesis in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the Master of Science in the Department of Psychology at The University of Auckland. Together with my supervisors, Drs Brenda Lobb, Beryl Plimmer and Douglas Elliffe, I am investigating how people design the forms we have to fill in so often during our lives, for example, to order a book, apply for a driver’s licence or register a dog. You are invited to participate in our research and we would appreciate any assistance you can offer us, although you are under no obligation to do so: your participation is voluntary and neither your grades nor academic relationships with the Departments of Psychology or Computer Science or members of staff will be affected whether or not you participate. Participation involves one visit to our laboratory at The University of Auckland, for approximately one hour, and requires that your eyesight is normal or corrected-to-normal by spectacles or contact lenses. If you agree to participate, I will ask you to be seated at a desk and using a tablet (a specialized pen-driven computer), present you with five different form designs, one after the other. I will ask you to check each design using the scenario provided (e.g. register a dog, order a book, apply for credit) and make any changes you think necessary to improve the form. The changes you make and the time you spend working on each form’s design will be recorded automatically by the tablet. At the conclusion, you will be asked to note your age, education level and design experience on the tablet. All the information you provide remains anonymous. I will give your information a code number; your name will not be recorded and no-one will be able to identify you from any of the recorded data. Your consent form will be held in a secure file for 6 years, at the end of this time it will be shredded. Your name will not be used in any reports arising from this study. Each participant will have a separate set of data, you will not see other participants’ data and they will not see yours. The computer is password protected to protect this data. The anonymous information collected during this study may be used in future analyses and publications and will be kept indefinitely. When it is no longer required all copies of the data will be destroyed. At the conclusion of the study, a summary of the findings will be available from the researchers upon request. If you don’t want to participate, you don’t have to give any reason for your decision. If you do participate, you may withdraw at any time during the session. You can also ask for the information you have provided to be withdrawn at any time until 1/8/2006, without explanation and with penalty, by contacting me (details overleaf). If you choose not to participate, or to withdraw yourself or your information, your grades or academic relationships with the Departments of Psychology or Computer Science or members of staff will not be affected. If you agree to participate in this study, please first complete the consent form attached to this information sheet. Your consent form will be kept separately from your data so that no-one will be able to identify you from the information you provide. Thank you very much for your time and help in making this study possible. If you have any questions at any time you can phone me [cell phone no. to be inserted here], my supervisor Dr Brenda Lobb (09-373-7599 ext. 86870) or the Head of Department, Associate Professor Fred Seymour (3737599 ext 88414), or you can write to us at: Department of Psychology, Tamaki Campus The University of Auckland Private Bag 92019 Auckland.
