Guardian Consent for Children's Participation in Sociometric Research.

Iverson, Annette M.; Cook, Gail L.

Psychology in the Schools, v31 n2 p108-12 Apr 1994

Examined ways to increase consent rates and documented guardians' reasons for not consenting to allow children to participate in sociometric research. Findings from guardians of 376 elementary students, 30 of whom refused to give consent, revealed that reasons for nonconsent ranged from children not wanting to participate to parents/guardians not having enough information to make informed decision.
