Скачать или смотреть Understanding the barriers to organ donation under opt-out legislation- Jordan Miller

The Donor Research Network's (DoRN) Week of Talks presents Dr Jordan Miller. Jordan is a Research Fellow at the University of Aberdeen in Scotland. She completed her PhD at the University of Stirling, Scotland in 2021. Her PhD research applied a mixed-methods approach to examine the role that affective attitudes play in donor-relevant decisions, for example, disgust at the thought of organ donation, or concerns of medical mistrust. Her research included both an examination of individual determinants of donor behaviour and of the factors that influence family decision-making for posthumous organ donation.

Jordan’s PhD research had a particular focus on the impact of modern policy changes in organ donation legislation (opt-out versus opt-in consent) and identifying potentially novel factors that might influence donor relevant decisions under opt-out legislation, such as psychological reactance and government trust.
