Abstract
Questionnaire surveys were carried out to investigate the influencing factors on students to make a decision on possession of donor cards. The results showed that the possession rate of donor cards was 23.0%. There was a high possession rate of students who approve brain death, wish to have an operation with organ transplantation and talk about brain death and organ transplantation with their family and friends. But, there was no relation between possession of donor cards and interest on science and technology and social consciousness. From this study, it was indicated that providing sufficient information and training in order to total judgement should be required to make a decision on possession of donor cards.
