Effect of social support and donation‐related concerns on ambivalence of living liver donor candidates
Yun‐Chieh Lai, Wei‐Chen Lee, Yeong‐Yuh Juang, Lee‐Lan Yen, Li‐Chueh Weng, Hsueh Fen Chou – 13 July 2014 – Ambivalence in the decision‐making process for living liver donors has the potential to result in their experiencing a negative mental status. To promote donor candidates' well‐being, it is important to study the factors related to ambivalence. Thus, the aim of this study was to explore the ambivalence of living liver donor candidates and to investigate the effect of social support and donation‐related concerns on their ambivalence. A cross‐sectional design was used.
