The investigators plan to conduct a stepped wedge randomized control trial to implement and test the consent template and process in three studies. Randomization will occur at the research coordinator/research team level. Each participating research team member will begin in the standard consent arm of the study. Subsequently, they will be randomized to the visual key information page arm at staggered time points to undergo training and begin using the visual key information page with patients who are eligible for the selected research study.

| Label | Type | Description | Intervention Names |
|---|---|---|---|
| Research Staff: Standard Consent | Active Comparator | Each participating research team member will begin in the standard consent arm of the study. The standard consent consists of a summary using text only. |
|
| Research Staff: Visual Consent | Experimental | After beginning in the standard consent arm, the research staff will then be randomized to the visual key information page arm at staggered time points to undergo training and begin using the visual key information page with patients who are eligible for the selected research study. Research staff will also complete a baseline survey to assess feasibility, acceptability, and appropriateness of using visual consent pages as well as their institution's willingness and ability to implement using visual key information pages into routine care. Research staff will also complete a post-study survey on attitudes toward consent, the intervention (feasibility, acceptability, appropriateness of the intervention), organizational readiness for participant engagement, and willingness to continue the invention. |
|
| Participants: Visual Consent | Experimental | Participants will view the visual consent summary and will complete surveys with measures of knowledge, satisfaction with the information, decisional conflict, and potential covariates (i.e., demographics and health literacy). |
|
| Participants: Standard Consent | Active Comparator | Participants will view the standard consent consisting of summary text only and will complete surveys with measures of knowledge, satisfaction with the information, decisional conflict, and potential covariates (i.e., demographics and health literacy). |

|
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Change in feasibility (FIM) of implementation (Research Staff only) | 4 items on a Likert scale ranging from completely disagree to completely agree. Higher scores indicate greater feasibility. (1=completely disagree, 3= neither agree nor disagree, 5= completely agree) | From baseline to end of study (estimated to be 4 months) |
| Change in acceptability (AIM) of implementation measures (Research Staff only) | 4 items on a Likert scale ranging from completely disagree to completely agree. Higher scores indicate greater acceptability. (1=completely disagree, 3= neither agree nor disagree, 5= completely agree) | From baseline to end of study (estimated to be 4 months) |
| Change in appropriateness (IAM) of implementation measure (Research Staff only) | 4 items on a Likert scale ranging from completely disagree to completely agree. Higher scores indicate greater appropriateness. (1=completely disagree, 3= neither agree nor disagree, 5= completely agree) | From baseline to end of study (estimated to be 4 months) |
| Change in organizational willingness and ability to implement strategies (Research staff only) | Measure of organizational readiness for engagement (MORE) measure; 4-point scale (1=not willing, 4=; willing) report mean and SD; higher scores indicate higher level of readiness | From baseline to end of study (estimated to be 4 months) |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Knowledge of information provided in the consent (Participant only) | The investigators will ask up to7 true/false/unsure questions. Missing responses will be considered false/incorrect. An overall knowledge score will be calculated with the percentage of items correctly answered. Higher scores indicate greater participant understanding of the clinical trial. | At time of consent review (day 1) |

Prior to sharing, data will be redacted to strip all identifiers and strategies will be adopted to minimize risks of unauthorized disclosure of personal identifiers. Publicly available documentation will include the survey questions (including any relevant skip patterns), a codebook, univariate statistics for each variable, and study-level metadata. The codebook will include a brief description of each variable along with the question number and question text, variable name, variable label, value labels, and standard codes for missing values-including codes for non-applicable, "don't know," or prefer not to answer.
User information will be required to access data files. As part of the registration process, users must agree to the conditions of use governing access to the data, including restrictions around redistributing data, destruction of the data after analyses, immediate reporting of any disclosures, and proper acknowledgment of the data resource.
Final submission and release of the study data will occur 12 months following the end of data collection. Study data deposited will be available to the research community in perpetuity. Datasets underlying methodological publications will be shared at or prior to initial publication date.
Researchers who provide a methodologically sound plan.
