Publication Open Access Attitudes towards blood and living organ donations(2010) Cabasés Hita, Juan Manuel; Errea Rodríguez, María; Economía; EkonomiaWe model the decision of whether or not to become a blood/living organ donor. The expected utility for becoming a donor is a function of the degree of altruism, the consumption of goods, the costs of donation, the very pleasure of giving, and the recipient’s utility associated to donation. Empirically, we observe differences in the expected costs and benefits from donation between blood and non-blood donors, and between individuals with different willingness to donate living organs. Looking at benefits/costs of donation through reasons for donating/not donating, we conclude policies to encourage donation should focus on raising awareness and provide information.Publication Open Access Encouraging blood and living organ donations(2014) Errea Rodríguez, María; Cabasés Hita, Juan Manuel; Economía; EkonomiaThis thesis explores the decision of becoing blood and living organ donors. Theoretical and empirical approaches are provided. The first two chapters develop a theoretical behavioral model that helps to disentangle the psychology behind the decision of individuals of becoming blood and living organ donors. The model emphasizes the importance of altruism and warm-glow, and how introducing incentives could undermine the individuals' degree of altruism. A questionnaire is also designed in order to explore in the real population attitudes towards blood and living organ donations. The third chapter is an entirely empirical work and focus on blood donation. Data from the National Health Survey of France (ESPS 2012) are analyzed, focusing on exploring the population of blood donors and the influence of altruism, socio-economic status, social capital and risk aversion. The fourth chapter is focused on policy evaluation. Specifically it analyzes the impact of blood donation campaigns implemented in the spanish region of Navarra since 2010.
