dc.description.abstractOrgan donation is a very important issue due to its life-saving feature. The purpose of this study is to reveal the effect of the altruism levels of health workers in a public hospital in T & uuml;rkiye on their organ donation attitudes. This research is a descriptive cross-sectional survey study. The survey includes questions regarding the sociodemographic information, Organ Donation Attitude Scale and the Altruism Scale. According to the findings, while the helping dimension significantly and positively affected the organ donation attitude, the philanthropy dimension did not. Organ donation attitude is lower in women, young people, married people, those with lower education levels, health workers other than doctors, and units other than the emergency department. The level of altruism was lower in younger employees, those with lower education levels, doctors and those working in intensive care services. Helping sub-dimension positively affects organ donation attitudes. For policies to increase organ donation, factors that will increase altruism need to be determined.
