Infant’s Name________________
1. The Early Learning Project conducts research on the development of memory over the first two years of life. I confirm that the Staff visitor has described the purpose of the study, the study procedures, and the visitation pattern for my infant and has answered all questions that I may have had. 2. I understand that records of my infants' participation will be used for research purposes only and will remain confidential. 3. I understand that, by definition, infants constitute a "risk" category and that the University and investigators provide no compensation for any unforeseeable medical treatments or injuries of any kind that might result. 4. I understand that my (and my infant's) participation in the study is strictly voluntary, and we may withdraw from the study at any time. 5. I understand that my infant may be videotaped for coding purposes and may be viewed by other research staff. Videotapes will be stored in a locked cabinet. 6. I understand that if I have any questions or problems regarding the study, I can contact Dr. Rachel Barr at 202-687-6988. If I have any additional questions regarding mine or my infant's rights as research participants I have been advised that I may contact the Office of the Dean of Research and Graduate Education, 202-687-1506. 7. I confirm that I have received a copy of this form.

8. I consent to having demographic and contact information gathered during this study added to the Georgetown Research
Volunteer Program (GRVP) database (grvp.georgetown.edu) . Your information will only be available to other GRVP
researchers at Georgetown University. I understand that saying yes means that I might be contacted at a later date
for a different study myself or other family members and can choose whether or not to participate at that time. |
