Key Points Question Is audiovisual material better than paper-based material for 1-time general informed consent in prison research? Findings In this randomized clinical trial of 190 adults in prison and 100 adolescents in juvenile detention, 85.3% of adults and 89.8% of adolescents signed the informed consent form after seeing a video on informed consent, whereas 81.1% of adults and 68.6% of adolescents signed informed consent forms after reading the paper-based material. Meaning Given the small benefit of audiovisual material in this study, detained adults and prison health care staff should have a choice regarding informed consent material and detained adolescents should be provided with audiovisual material.
