Abstract:

 

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of a peer learning on attitudes to organ donation and the rate of obtaining a donor card in university students. 
Method: This was a quasi-experimental study in a single group. Study was conducted between October-2017 and October-2019 from nursing (n=320) and the fine arts (n=160) students. Peer learning approach was applied as an intervention.  
Results: There was a statistically significant difference in the nursing faculty students’ positive attitudes to organ donation after peer learning. Also, there was a statistically significant difference in the second-year nursing students’ negative attitudes to organ donation after peer learning. The difference in the number of the nursing students having a donor card after peer learning was highly significant. There was not a statistically significant difference in the fine art students’ positive attitudes to organ donation and having a donor card after peer learning.
Conclusions: It is recommended that private and social issues such as organ donation be taught to students in the higher education curriculum with the peer learning approach.
