[Speaking to parent/guardian]

Hello, my name is _______________ and I’m from [name of recruitment firm]. I’m calling on behalf of RTI International and Concentrics Research about a research study that is being sponsored by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). We are looking for teens to take part in a study to review a label for a medicine that may be available over-the-counter, meaning without a prescription. I am calling you because you have a teen between the ages of 15-17 who may qualify to participate in the study. FDA believes it is important to get feedback from many people, including teens, about this product label to help make sure that people understand from the label how to use the medicine so it is safe and effective. We are not selling or promoting any product.

The study involves participating in a one-time individual, in-person interview lasting no more than 45 minutes. The interview will include looking at a list of medical terms and answering some questions about instructions for the medicine. The interview will be audio recorded, and project team members may observe the interview from behind a one-way mirror or by live-streaming. Your teen will be given $40 [FORM TBD BY RECRUITMENT FIRM; CASH/CHECK ARE TYPICAL] at the end of the interview to help defray their expenses related to participation.

Before we can determine if your teen is eligible to be in the interview, we need to obtain your permission to ask your teen screening questions. This will include questions about their school grades, age, and race/ethnicity. If your child does qualify and decides to participate, I will need their email address and/or phone number in order to contact them to remind them about their appointment. If your child does participate, we will not tell you anything they say during the interview.

First, I want to confirm that you have [X] children between the ages of 15 and 17. Is that correct [YES/NO]? Are they all currently at home [YES/NO]? Can I speak to _______________ [oldest child who is at home] to see if he/she is able to be in the study? [NOTE: If that child does not want to come to the phone ask to speak to the next oldest.] We will not enroll anyone in the study who will be turning 18 before November 1, 2017 and all data will be deidentified by November 1, 2017 (this means that any information that identifies your child will be destroyed). If he/she is able to be in the interview, we will need you to sign a parental permission form prior to his/her participation in the study. If your child qualifies for the study, I will ask to speak to you again at the end of the call so that I can give you more information. Will you provide permission for me to speak to your child?

SCREENER: DOCUMENT PARENTAL PERMISSION TO TALK TO CHILD:

_______YES, parent provides permission

_______No, parent declines; terminate call

Yes		 CONTINUE
No/Refused		 TERMINATE (Thank parent for his/her time and end the call)

[READ] Before we continue, I need to confirm a couple of things.

1. Are you this child’s parent or legal guardian?

Yes		 CONTINUE
No/Refused		 TERMINATE (Thank parent for his/her time and end the call)

2. If your child qualifies for the study and decides to participate, the interview will be audio recorded. Can we audio record your child’s interview?

Yes		 CONTINUE
No		 TERMINATE (Closing Script and Contact Information Sheet)

Thank you. Please give the phone to your child and give them privacy for the discussion. By privacy, I mean that you are not listening to our discussion in person (i.e., you are not in the same room as or within hearing distance of your child) or over the telephone.

[Speaking with adolescent]

My name is _______________ and I’m from [NAME OF RECRUITMENT FIRM]. RTI International and Concentrics Research are doing a study that is being sponsored by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). FDA is the government agency that protects the public health by reviewing new medicines. In these reviews, the FDA helps to make sure the medicines work and are safe before they are approved to be prescribed by health care providers and used by patients.  We are looking for people to take part in a research study to review a label for a medicine that may be available over-the-counter soon, meaning without a prescription. What we learn from this study will help to make sure that people understand from the label how to use the medicine so it is safe and effective. We are not selling or promoting any medicine.

The study involves being in a one-time in-person interview lasting no more than 45 minutes. The session will include looking at a list of medical terms and answering some questions about instructions for the medicine. The interview will be audio recorded, and project team members may watch the interview from behind a one-way mirror or by live-streaming. You will be given $40 [FORM TBD BY RECRUITMENT FIRM; CASH/CHECK ARE TYPICAL] at the end of the interview to reimburse you for your expenses related to study participation.

To see if you qualify for this study, I need to ask you some questions that will take a few minutes of your time. Your parent/guardian gave me permission to ask you these questions. This will include questions about your school grades, age, and race/ethnicity. If you qualify for the study, you can then decide if you want to be a part of the study. If you do qualify and decide to participate, I will need your email address and/or phone number to contact you to remind you about your appointment.

All of your answers will be kept private. We won’t share any of your answers with your parents, or tell them why you did or didn’t qualify for the study. If you do participate in the study, we won’t share anything that you say during the interview with your parents. Your contact information will be kept apart from your answers to these questions. If you feel uncomfortable at all, you can choose not to answer a question or end the call at any time. Also, just because your parent/guardian gave us permission to ask you these questions does not mean you must answer them.

3. Do you have any questions about the process?

Yes		 ANSWER QUESTIONS
No		 CONTINUE

4. If you qualify for the study and decide to participate, the interview will be audio recorded. Is it okay if we audio record the interview?

Yes		 CONTINUE
No		 TERMINATE (Closing Script and Contact Information Sheet)

5. Do you have privacy for the discussion? This means your parent/guardian is not listening to our conversation in person (i.e., he/she is not in the same room as you or within hearing distance) or over the phone.

Yes		 ANSWER QUESTIONS
No		 SUGGEST THAT HE/SHE MOVES TO A PRIVATE AREA (A SEPARATE ROOM WITH A DOOR, IF POSSIBLE) OR ASKS THE PARENT/GUARDIAN TO HANG UP THE PHONE.

6. May I ask you my questions now?

Yes		 CONTINUE
No		 Terminate (Thank adolescent for his/her time and end the call)
