Compensation for Injury
If your study involves activities that would put the participant at risk for injury (i.e. physical activity such as that in a kinesiology study), please add the following text to the consent form:
What happens if you are hurt during this study?
You will not be paid for lost wages, disability, or discomfort if you suffer any unexpected injury directly resulting from this study. Treatment for an unexpected injury directly resulting from the research study that is not covered by the sponsor or your insurance will be provided free of charge at the University of Virginia. You should talk to the study researcher if you have questions about being paid for an unexpected injury caused by this study. You do not give up legal rights for personal injury by signing this form.
