Which of the following is the best statement of "informed consent" in social research

Informed consent in social research is the process by which an individual provides their voluntary and informed agreement to participate in a research study after having been informed of the possible risks, benefits, and implications of their participation. An individual’s consent implies they are aware of what they will be asked to do, the potential consequences and benefits of their involvement, and that they can choose whether or not to participate without fear of negative consequences.
