What values should online consent forms satisfy? A scoping review
Background
Online users are presented with consent forms frequently, as they visit new websites. Such forms seek consent to collect, store and process a web user’s data. The forms contain a wide range of statements that attempt to persuade people to grant such consent.
Aim
In this paper, we review the literature to determine what researchers say about the human values/needs online consent forms should satisfy.
Methods
We carried out a scoping review of the literature on consent forms, in order to understand the research in this area. We conclude with a value-based model of online consent.
Results
Our investigation revealed six distinct human values, and their associated value creators, that online consent forms ought to satisfy in order to support informed consent-related decision making.
Conclusions
We conclude with a suggestion for future work to validate the proposed model.
