How to create a research project information sheet
• The participant information sheet is an essential part of any ethics application for a study that will involve the recruitment of human subjects.
• The Faculty Ethics Committee will expect you to attach your participant information sheet as an appendix to your low-risk or high-risk ethics application. You should also normally include a consent form.
• Ensuring that your participant information sheet and consent form contain all of the information required is essential, and failure to submit these will result in your ethics application being returned with being considered.
• The following slides provide step-by-step guidance on the completion of a participant information sheet. Consider that all studies are different, so your information sheet needs to be appropriate for your proposed study.
