Glossary Term

Digital Assent

A process where a participant gives consent or assent electronically, often within an app interface.

Digital assent gathers a child’s agreement electronically, using simple language and optional audio. It complements parental consent and should clearly state that saying “no” is okay.

Puppet Interview includes built-in assent flows aligned with developmentally appropriate practice. See our resources on the homepage.
