- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method The primary parameters of the intervention are derived from the ASE-Model. This model is based on the theory of Theory of Planned Behaviour (TPB) of Fishbein and Ajzen (19) and is supplemented by elements from the Social Cognitive Theory (SCT) of Bandura (20). The ASE-Model has a wide scientific acceptance and represents a theoretical framework for explaining behaviour by connecting attitude, social influence, self-efficacy, knowledge, skills (communication), and barriers and resources (risk perception) to intention and behaviour.
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Secondary outcomes are the number applications for donor evaluation, the number of evaluations for living donation and the number of live kidney transplants among patients who participated in the study.
