Evaluating Attitudes Towards Organ Donation in the United States on MTurk

Status Completed

Clinical Trial Summary

The study is conducted to investigate the effects of priming different cultural orientations on participants' decisions on whether to donate their organs, in an opt-out donation system scenario where the default is a presumed consent on the part of the individual.

Clinical Trial Description

Participants complete a survey where they respond to scales measuring their baseline cultural and power distance orientations, and answer questions on their demographics such as gender, race, employment etc.

24 hours later, participants fill in a 2nd survey where they are instructed to complete 1 out of 2 possible priming tasks. The possible tasks consist of an Individualistic priming condition and a Collectivistic priming condition; both tasks require participants to answer 3 statements each to 3 questions regarding the self or their social group. Participants then indicate their choice on whether to donate their organs (default or opt-out), rate their confidence regarding their choice and complete the same scales measuring their cultural and power distance orientations. ;
