Informed Consent
Before you join the study, I use a process called "informed consent" to make sure you have all the facts. I will explain the purpose of the research, what you’ll be doing, and any possible risks. The goal is to make sure you feel comfortable and informed so you can choose to join—or leave—at any time. It’s about your right to choose, not just signing a piece of paper.
