研究概览
简要总结
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.
详细描述
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.

From a scenario where participants imagine themselves applying for a driver's license in a country where an opt-out organ donation system is enforced, participants are asked to make a binary choice between choosing to donate their organs (default) and choosing not to donate their organs (opt out).
Line scale survey item - Confidence in Decision to Donate Organ
时间窗: 1 minute
Participants are asked to mark along a line scale on how confident they feel about their decision to donate their organs. The extreme ends of the line scale are defined as "Not Confident At All" (0) and "Extremely Confident" (100).
