In this unique and groundbreaking volume for organ donor professionals, applied social psychologists, health psychologists, policy makers, and academics and students in health communication, Siegel and Alvaro (behavioral and organizational sciences and Institute of Health Psychology and Prevention Science, Claremont Graduate U.) bring together 20 chapters drawn from Claremont Graduate U.'s Annual Applied Social Psychology Symposium that introduce and survey social and behavioral science perspectives on organ donation. Focusing on nonliving organ donation, a group of organ donation professionals, policy makers, and researchers from the US working in medicine, communication, psychology, patient counseling, political science, social sciences, and community health discuss aspects such as the importance of theory, working with unique and difficult to reach populations, the impact of interventions, motivating individuals to become advocates, and the use of quasi-experimental designs. They also describe research issues, an overview of organ donation, a variety of research projects such as media and community campaigns and organizational interventions, the conflict between funeral directors and organ procurement professionals, donation promotion strategies, donor registration, and living donation.
