Blood and bone marrow donation: similarities and differences in a psychological context
The study examined the relationship between willingness to donate blood and willingness to donate bone marrow. 417 participants filled in the questionnaire examining attitudes, knowledge, subjective norms, moral obligation, perceived behavioural control, self-efficacy, past behaviour and intention towards both blood and marrow donation. Additionally, after filling in the questionnaires, all participants were given a chance to subscribe to a "promise card" in order to register for blood donation or for blood testing for the marrow donor's list. Actual behaviour was observed. Participants showed positive attitudes and weak knowledge about blood and bone marrow donation. Generally, participants were more willing to donate blood than bone marrow. Correlations between coresponding variables connected to blood and bone marrow donations were positive, significant and moderate to high in magnitude. Factor analysis suggested that there is a mutual factor responsible for attitudes toward both blood and marrow donations. Structural regression models with latent variables explained 80% of variance of intention to donate blood and 70% of variance of intention to donate bone marrow.
