TalkBank members who are interested in contributing their data need to make sure that they obtain IRB approval for their study, along with informed consent from individual participants. To facilitate this process, we provide these suggestions:

1. A sample informed consent form designed for subjects in the AphasiaBank project. This form can be modified for other projects.

2. An actual informed consent form approved at CMU for the AphasiaBank project.

3. A form expressing your permission to include your corpus in TalkBank.

4. A picture-based consent form for aphasics.

5. An explanation of various options for data access.

6. Instructions on how to submit new data.
