Wards. Parental consent is required for a child’s participation unless the minor is legally emancipated from his/her parents. If the minor is a ▇▇▇▇ of the state, permission must be granted from the judge who is the legal custodian of the child. In this case, the investigator should contact the appropriate court, as many counties have a petition and order for research that must be filed. The investigator must submit evidence of having obtained judicial permission with their IRB paperwork. • Minor Assent: In addition to a signed parental consent form, minor assent is also required. This means that the investigator must explain the research to the minor in an age appropriate manner, and obtain the minor’s affirmative agreement to participate in the research. Note that if the minor dissents from participating in research, even if his or her parents or guardian have granted permission, the minor’s decision prevails in most cases. For research activities involving adolescents whose capacity to understand resembles that of adults, the assent procedure might include information similar to what would be provided for informed consent by adults or for parental permission. For children whose age and maturity level limits their ability to fully comprehend the nature of the research activity but who are still capable of being consulted about participation in research, it may be appropriate to focus on conveying an accurate picture of what the actual experience of participation in research is likely to be (for example, what the experience will be, how long it will take, whether it might involve any pain or discomfort). The assent procedure should reflect a reasonable effort to enable the child to understand, to the degree they are capable, what their participation in research would involve, and should be documented in the methods and procedures of the IRB protocol narrative that researchers are required to submit as part of their IRB application.
