Signature Field in Google Forms

[Rebecca Johnson]

Is there a way to add an electronic signature field into a Google Form. We would like to have the recipient verify their form data/answers by e-signing the Google Form before submitting it.

I've searched high and low for an extension or add-in (free), but haven't come up with anything suitable. Has anybody come across a tool to accomplish this?

I use a lowbrow solution:

By entering your initials in the box below, you are effectively providing your signature, indicating that all the information on this form is true and accurate, to the best of your knowledge.

That's what most online signatures are, even Erate.

We use similar to Joel's solution, only it is two fields. 1.  A checkbox (required with single box to check) that has the agreement/disclaimer ("By entering your name below you....) 2. a textbox for their name

This is what our counsel advised when we were meeting compliance with DOL requirements re: information dissemination.  Make sure that the form is set to collect username/timestamp as well, if it is an internal post.  If it is external, you have to leave it open.
