“…They play a pivotal role in organ procurement and have difficult conversations that have the potential to save many lives. Only 5% of organ transplant coordinators are black (Reitz and Callender 1993). In addition to this, transplant coordinators approach black families about organ donation less frequently than other families because of a stereotype that they always refuse (Reitz and Callender 1993).…”

“…Adolescent organ education programs in nine different countries increased knowledge and the intent to donate organs(Li et al 2013). Black people in the US historically receive less education on organ donation and are also one of the least likely groups to register as organ donors(Reitz and Callender 1993). Organ donation education has the potential to increase organ donation rates because it can demystify many of the misconceptions about registering as an organ donor.…”

“…Oregon had the highest donor registration percentage of 56.7% while New York's fell far below half at 22.7%. Inner city hospitals typically serving minority populations are the lowest providers of organ transplants(Reitz and Callender 1993). New York City alone composes 43% of the population of New York and 60.2% are minorities (US Census, 2020).…”

In the United States 17 people die each day awaiting an organ transplant and only 56% of the population registers as organ donors. The purpose of this study is to assess whether socioeconomic and demographic conditions effect organ donation rates and if so, analyse which conditions have the largest effects. The hypothesis predicts there is an effect from socioeconomic and demographic conditions and specifically receiving more education, earning a higher income and being a Christian positively influences organ donation rates, while being a member of a minority group, receiving less education, and residing in a Southern state negatively influences organ donation rates. Using deceased organ donor data from 37 states along with socioeconomic and demographic data, this study used OLS regressions for its analysis. White, American Indian or Alaskan Native, and Black or African American populations residing in Southern states and lower incomes negatively influenced organ donation rates.

PurposePublic service announcements (PSAs) have been shown to be effective instruments that raise awareness, educate society, and change behaviors and attitudes. Many governments and organizations have utilized PSAs on social media to promote online safety among children and youth. However, we have limited understanding of the range of topics that these PSAs address and how they present their content to audiences. This study provides an inventory of the types of online safety topics that current PSAs address and a catalogue of the types of persuasive features employed by PSAs.Design/methodology/approachA content analysis of 220 YouTube PSA videos on online safety was conducted. Various topics under the umbrella of online safety were identified. Guided by the prospect theory and exemplification theory, different persuasive features employed in the PSAs were sought.FindingsThe findings highlight that the primary focus of these PSAs is on online safety behaviors and general instructions on online hygiene. Interestingly, nearly half of the videos employ a neutral frame, while a significant portion provides no evidential support. Additionally, video length was associated with the number of views and likes it gathered but not with the number of comments.Originality/valueThe inventory of PSAs can help researchers, practitioners, and policymakers better understand the type of content being produced and disseminated online as well as identify topics that are either over or under-represented. Further, the catalogue of the types of persuasive features employed by PSAs would be helpful in guiding research, practice, and policymaking in the context of creating effective online safety videos.

Rationale. In developed countries, public service announcement has long been a universal tool for diagnosing and correcting social behavior, including the donor activity increase. Considering the existing organ donation popularization inertia in Russia, the review of positive foreign public service announcement examples has a high scientific and practical relevance. Aim. To study the world examples of organ donation public service announcement. Material and methods. We reviewed public service announcement products of donor organizations from Spain, Portugal, Italy, the Vatican, Belgium, Argentina, Brazil, France, Germany, Singapore, and Japan. We assessed the popularization of organ donation in Russia and highlighted the ways for its improvement. Conclusion. Organ donation public service announcement are widely used both in "Opt In" and "Opt Out" countries and have a high potential for forming a positive public opinion in the Russian Federation. In Russia, the activities aimed at promoting organ donation are insufficient, there is a need to scale it up. In this regard, independent non-profit organizations with the necessary professional staff and marketing competencies can be considered as reliable partners for the government in conducting educational work on organ donation, in particular, in the public service announcement implementation.
