有证据表明，研究参与者往往无法回忆起在知情同意过程中提供的大部分信息。本研究旨在确定药物法庭参与者按照结构化的知情同意程序回忆同意信息的比例，以及与回忆相关的神经心理因素。85名参与者完成了一项标准的知情同意程序，参加了一项正在进行的研究，随后是一项17项的同意测验，两周后进行了简短的神经心理学测试。参与者在大多数神经心理学测试中表现正常，尽管大约三分之一的人在执行功能测试中表现出缺陷。参与者在进入研究的2周内回忆不了超过65%的同意信息，其回忆与语言智商、药物问题严重程度、阅读能力、记忆力和注意力显著相关。这些因素可能有助于确定研究参与者是否需要加强同意程序。
Evidence suggests that research participants often fail to recall much of the information provided during the informed consent process. This study was conducted to determine the proportion of consent information recalled by drug court participants following a structured informed consent procedure and the neuropsychological factors that were related to recall. Eighty-five participants completed a standard informed consent procedure to participate in an ongoing research study, followed by a 17-item consent quiz and a brief neuropsychological battery 2 weeks later. Participants performed within the normal range on most of the neuropsychological measures, although roughly one third showed deficits on measures of executive functioning. Participants failed to recall over 65% of the consent information within 2 weeks of entering the study, and their recall was significantly correlated with verbal IQ, drug problem severity, reading ability, memory, and attention. These factors may be useful in determining whether research participants require enhanced consent procedures.
