Abstract

This study applied the Theoretical Domains Framework (TDF) to identify barriers and facilitators to blood donation among young adults in the UK. A total of 195 individuals (aged 18-29) completed an online survey covering 14 TDF domains, with non-donors offered the chance to register as donors. Binary logistic regression analysis revealed that Knowledge, Beliefs about capabilities and Emotion were the most significant predictors of current donation status. Although nearly half of the non-donors expressed interest in registering as donors, only about a quarter completed the registration when provided with a link. The TDF proved to be an effective framework for understanding the psychological and behavioral factors influencing donation decisions. Based on these findings, targeted intervention strategies were suggested using the Behavior Change Wheel (BCW). These approaches emphasize digital engagement, aligning with the online behaviors and social influences that shape young adults' decision-making. Further research is needed to implement and evaluate these interventions, comparing their effectiveness against current NHS Blood and Transplant (NHSBT) campaigns.

使用理论领域框架确定和克服年轻人献血的障碍和促进因素。
本研究应用理论领域框架(TDF)来确定英国年轻人献血的障碍和促进因素。共有195人(年龄在18-29岁之间)完成了一项涵盖14个TDF域的在线调查,非捐赠者也有机会注册为捐赠者。二元logistic回归分析显示,知识、能力信念和情感是当前捐赠状况最显著的预测因子。虽然近一半的非捐助者表示有兴趣登记为捐助者,但只有大约四分之一的人在提供链接时完成了登记。事实证明,TDF是了解影响捐赠决策的心理和行为因素的有效框架。基于这些发现,使用行为改变轮(BCW)提出了有针对性的干预策略。这些方法强调数字参与,与影响年轻人决策的在线行为和社会影响相一致。需要进一步的研究来实施和评估这些干预措施,将其与当前NHS血液和移植(NHSBT)运动的有效性进行比较。
