Which phrase correctly represents an oath/affirmation?

  1. Do you acknowledge this as your signature?

  2. Do you swear (or affirm) that the information contained in this document is true?

  3. Is this your final decision?

  4. Do you agree to execute this document?

The correct answer is: Do you swear (or affirm) that the information contained in this document is true?

The phrase that correctly represents an oath or affirmation is one that explicitly requires a person to swear or affirm the truthfulness of statements or information provided, as this is central to the purpose of oaths and affirmations. This process serves to formally commit the individual to truthfulness under penalty of perjury, which is a foundational aspect of legal proceedings and notarizations. In this context, the correct phrase is the one that specifically includes a commitment to truth—either through swearing or affirming that the information is accurate. This direct engagement with the truthfulness of the statements is what distinguishes this option as the correct representation of an oath or affirmation. Other phrases presented do not convey a similar commitment to truthfulness. They may involve acknowledgment or agreement but lack the formal requirement of swearing or affirming the truth of the content, which is essential for an oath or affirmation in legal practices.
