In Finland, answering the survey is primarily considered an indication of consent to participate in the research and to allow the use of the material in the research. All participants were provided with a formal covering letter explaining the background of the study, that participation in the study is completely voluntary and anonymous, and that responding to the questionnaire is interpreted as informed consent to take part in the study.
