研究了英国自2013年起向已故器官捐献者家属颁发的圣约翰勋章对捐献数量的影响,发现该荣誉奖励显著增加了遗体器官捐献者人数。

Abstract

Since 2013, The Order of St John Award for Organ Donation has been offered to the families of deceased solid organ donors in the United Kingdom to honor the donors and inspire others to donate. We evaluate the effects of this award using a difference-in-differences approach that builds on the fact that solid organ donors are eligible for the award, whereas cornea-only donors are not. We find that the introduction of the award led to an increase in the number of deceased solid organ donors.
