为了获取来自不同背景的人如何经历知情同意程序的信息，我们对最近参加了一项需要书面知情同意的研究的具有不同教育水平和不同主要语言（英语、西班牙语或越南语）的成年人进行了调查。在 100 名参与者中，62 人是非白人，43 人受教育程度低于高中，60 人的主要语言不是英语。理解力中位数为 62% (IQR 50 - 76%)；满意度中位数为 86% (IQR 71 - 100%)。在多变量分析中，只有教育水平与知情同意过程的理解和满意度显着相关（p < 0.001）。教育水平较低的人对知情同意程序的理解和满意度明显较低。
TO OBTAIN INFORMATION ON HOW PERSONS from diverse backgrounds experience the informed consent process, we surveyed adults with a wide variety of educational levels and different primary languages (English, Spanish, or Vietnamese) who had recently enrolled in a study requiring written informed consent. Of the 100 participants, 62 were non- White, 43 had less than a high school education, and 60 had a primary language other than English. The median score for comprehension was 62% (IQR 50 - 76%); the median satisfaction score was 86% (IQR 71 - 100%). In multivariate analysis, only educational level was significantly associated with comprehension and satisfaction with the informed consent process (p < 0.001). Comprehension and satisfaction with the informed consent process were markedly lower among persons with lower educational levels.
