I called ACT this morning as well and was told basically the same thing -- the questionnaire must have come from the talent search not from ACT. CBK isn't answering their phone at all and hasn't responded to my e-mail. I'm a little irritated to put it lightly. IMHO if we didn't consent to this, they have no right to be conducting experiments on our kids. These aren't "how old are you, where do you attend school," types of questions that could be interpretted as a means of getting to know the kids better. It sounds like a means of getting to know the kids' psychology better and seeing how that correlates with their test performance. That would constitute a human subjects experiment which requires IRB approval and signed consent forms from parents.
