While it's been a few years since she wrote this, Danielle Lawson's (2004) work on consent would be appropriate for you to consider. She offers a range of options for consent: 1. consent to having their nickname and communicative text used for data analysis only (no publication of name or text); 2. consent to having either their nickname or text published in an academic work, but never together (i.e., no identifiers); 3. consent to having either their nickname or text published in an academic work, but never together (i.e., no identifiers) and providing they get to see the ‘write up’ prior to publication; 4. consent to having both their nickname and text published in academic work, thereby being credited as the authors of their own words; or 5. consent to having both their nickname and text published in academic work, thereby being credited as the authors of their own words, providing they get to see the ‘write up’ prior to publication (p. 93).
