Description
Résumé:This descriptive study was performed to determine the knowledge and attitudes of 492 Faculty of Theology students in Turkey regarding organ donation and the determinants of organ donation intention according to the theory of planned behavior. The study used the Attitudes Toward Organ Donation Scale and the Organ-Tissue Donation and Transplantation Knowledge Scale. According to the results of the regression analysis, the factors affecting organ donation intention were attitude (OR 1.19, 95%CI 1.11-1.27), subjective norms (OR 1.10, 95%CI 1.01-1.20), and perceived behavioral control (OR 1.30, 95%CI 1.18-1.44). In this study, behavioral intention was significantly associated with attitude, subjective norms, and perceived behavioral control.
