Objective: To find out the structure of Attitude towards organ donation in the LA population resident in Florida (USA). Methods A sample was taken of LA residents in Florida, randomised and stratified by nationality, age and sex (n=1524). Attitude was assessed using a validated questionnaire (PCID–DTO Rios), that was self-completed anonymously. Results The survey completion rate was 95% (n=1450).

The following variables were associated with a Favourable Attitude: country of origin (Dominican Republic; p=0.038); sex (female; p<0.001); marital status (married; p<0.001); level of education (university; p<0.001); previous experience of the subject (p<0.001); considering the need for a transplant in the future (p<0.001); understanding the concept of brain death (p=0.003); Attitude towards donating a family member's organs (p<0.001); having discussed organ donation and transplantation with one's family (p<0.001) or with one's partner (p<0.001); participation in pro-social type activities (p<0.001); the respondent's religion (atheist–agnostic; p<0.001); a respondent's knowledge of the Attitude of his or her religion towards organ donation (p<0.001); no concern about mutilation after donation (p<0.001); acceptance of cremation (p<0.001); burial (p<0.001); and an autopsy if one were needed (p<0.001). Conclusions The Attitude towards donation of LA in Florida is worse than that reported in the native population and is associated with certain psychosocial factors.

personnel in cadaveric organ transplant related hospital units faced with living liver donation an attitudinal study in a spanish hospital with a cadaveric and living liver transplant programme
Liver International, 2007Co-Authors: A Rios, M M Rodriguez, P Ramirez, L Martinez, M J Montoya, D Lucas, P ParrillaAbstract:Introduction: The Attitude of health-care personnel is fundamental for the procurement of transplant organs, especially in those services that are related to transplantation. The objective of this study is to find out the Attitude towards living liver donation among personnel who work in transplant-related services in a hospital with a cadaveric and living organ transplant programme. Materials and Methods: A random sample was taken and stratified by type of service and job category (N=330), in services related to transplantation (procurement units, transplant units and follow-up units). Attitude was evaluated using a validated psychosocial questionnaire. Control group: a random sample of personnel in clinical services that do not have any direct contact with solid organ transplantation. Student's t-test and the χ2 test complemented by a logistical regression analysis were applied in the statistical analysis. Results: The questionnaire completion rate was 94% (N=309). Only 10% (N=31) of respondents are in favour of living liver donation if it is unrelated, but another 67% (N=207) are in favour if donation were for a relative. Of the rest, 11% (N=33) do not agree with living liver donation and the remaining 12% (N=38) are undecided. In the control group, Attitude towards living liver donation is Favourable in 82% (N=344) (P=0.0908). An analysis of the variables that influence Attitude shows that the following factors are significantly related: (1) age (P=0.037); (2) a respondent's belief that he or she may need a transplant in the future (P=0.013); and (3) if it were necessary, a willingness to receive a donated living liver organ (P=0.000). Of the variables that have the most influence on Attitude towards living liver donation in the bivariate analysis, there are two variables that are statistically significant in the multivariate analysis: (1) age and (2) willingness to accept a donated living liver organ from a relative if it were needed (OR=14.19). There is also a close relationship between Attitude towards living liver donation and Attitude towards living kidney donation (P=0.000) Conclusions: There is a Favourable Attitude towards living liver donation among personnel in units related to the transplantation and donation process, although it is less Favourable than expected. Therefore, it will be necessary to increase this level of acceptance and to improve information about the matter if we want to encourage living liver donation. The youngest workers in these units are those who are most in favour, which leads us to believe that there is a hopeful future for this type of liver donation that is so necessary given the cadaveric organ deficit.

multivariate study of the psychosocial factors affecting public Attitude towards organ donation
Nefrologia, 2005Co-Authors: Celia Conesa, M M Rodriguez, P Ramirez, Manuel Canteras, A Rios, Pascual ParrillaAbstract:INTRODUCTION Organ transplantation is a therapy which depends on society for its development. The objectives here are: 1) to understand the structure of public opinion towards organ donation in the population aged over 15 years of age in our Community; 2) to analyse the psychosocial variables which affect this opinion and 3) to define the population profiles on this matter. MATERIALS AND METHODS Random sample (n = 2.000) stratified for age, sex and geographical location (error for 95.5%, e +/- 2.24) to whom we apply a questionnaire about the psychosocial aspects of organ donation. Descriptive statistics, Student's t-test, Chi-squared test and logistical regression analysis. RESULTS 63% have a Favourable Attitude towards organ donation, of which 11% have a donor's card. A statistical association has been observed between Favourable public opinion and different psychosocial variables (p 50 years of age, with primary studies or below, with no previous experience of the matter, who does not understand the concept of brain death nor their partner's opinion towards donation, who has not found out any information about donation through specialised forums, with an unFavourable opinion towards blood donation or pro-social activities and who is fearful of manipulation of the cadaver after death.

socio personal profile of teenagers opposed to organ donation
Nephrology Dialysis Transplantation, 2004Co-Authors: Celia Conesa, M M Rodriguez, Antonio Rios Zambudio, P Ramirez, Manuel Canteras, Pascual ParrillaAbstract:BACKGROUND: The teenage population has a more Favourable Attitude towards organ donation than other population groups. Teenagers represent the future of the community and their opinion directly affects other family members and friends. Therefore, teenagers who are in favour of donation become promoters of organ donation in their area of influence. Our aim was to determine the opinion and fears of the teenage population regarding organ donation in order to define the profile of the subgroup, which is opposed to donation. METHODS: We used a random stratified sample according to gender and geographical location of 15-19-year-old adolescents. The Attitude towards organ donation was assessed using the questionnaire on psychosocial aspects of donation. The variables were grouped into socio-personal, donation awareness, social interaction, pro-social activities and Attitude towards the body. Data were analysed by descriptive statistics, the chi(2) test, Student's t-test and a logistic regression analysis. RESULTS: Seventy-three per cent of teenagers have a Favourable Attitude towards organ donation. Twenty-seven per cent are undecided or have negative Attitudes; the main reason given is fear of apparent death (48%). Variables with statistical significance, which are against donation, are a low level of education (P = 0.0456), no previous experience with organ donation (P = 0.0254), no knowledge of the brain death concept (P = 0.0054) and refusal to accept cadaver manipulation (P = 0.0037). CONCLUSION: The profile of the teenager who is opposed to organ donation is one who has only primary schooling or who left school early, is not engaged in pro-social activities, rejects cadaver manipulation and has no knowledge of the brain death concept.

Social media marketing: Comparative effect of advertisement sources
Journal of Retailing and Consumer Services, 2017Co-Authors: Mahmud Akhter Shareef, Yogesh Kumar Dwivedi, Nripendra Pratap Rana, B Mukerji, Rubina IslamAbstract:This study was conducted to conceptualise advertising value and consumer Attitudes towards advertisements. The research was developed to reveal the effect of the source of advertisements on credibility perception through the theoretical framework of Ducoffe's (1995) advertising value model. The research objective is to identify source derogation in terms of credibility to create advertising value and a positive Attitude towards advertisements launched through the Facebook social network. In this regard, the study used three distinct sources to generate and introduce product promotional messages: an associative reference group, an aspirational reference group and marketers themselves. This research revealed significant differences in developing advertisement value and forming a Favourable Attitude towards advertisements when the product-related message was developed by these three distinct groups, who have different source derogations.
