Abstract(s)
O sangue é o bem mais valioso e necessário à vida humana.
Uma vez que a única forma de obtenção de sangue é através da dádiva benévola e não-remunerada, são muitos os apelos à dádiva de sangue e de diversas formas.
Apesar de ser segura e de existirem procedimentos para garantir essa segurança antes de efectuar a dádiva, existem ainda medos e dúvidas relativamente à dádiva, sendo por isso importante motivar os dadores a dar sangue.
O presente estudo tem como objectivo geral determinar quais os factores que contribuem para a dádiva de sangue nos jovens universitários.
Para tal desenvolveu-se um estudo quantitativo transversal, com uma amostra constituída por 200 estudantes universitários das cidades da Guarda e Covilhã. De acordo com os objectivos previamente definidos, elaborou-se um inquérito por questionário, com escalas validadas por outros estudos.
Recorreu-se à Teoria do Comportamento Planeado, que tem sido estudada a fim de perceber quais os antecedentes comportamentais que impedem a dádiva, tendo-se adicionado o Comportamento Pró-Social, que tem por objectivo melhorar o bem-estar dos outros, proporcionando satisfação pessoal e o desejo do desempenho de comportamentos de forma altruísta.
Os resultados indicam que a auto-eficácia é o constructo que mais influencia a intenção de doar sangue, seguido do constructo atitude, sendo que o constructo normal moral exerce também uma influência indirecta elevada através do constructo atitude. O Comportamento Pró-Social não revelou influência na intenção de doar sangue.
Blood is the most important and value thing in human life. Since the only way to get blood is through benevolent and unpaid blood donor, there are a lot of appeals for blood donation in different ways. Despite being safe, there are some procedures before blood donation to preserve donor´s and receptor´s health and safety, however, there still exist some issues about blood donation, so it is important to motivate people to give blood. The aim of this study is to know the factors that explain blood donation. For this study was developed a transversal and quantitative study with a sample consisting of two hundred students in Guarda and Covilhã. According to the previously defined objectives, was elaborated a survey with scales validated by other studies. The Theory of Planned Behavior has been studied in order to understand the behavioral antecedents and to overcome the barriers that prevent blood donation. In this work, the Prosocial Behavior, which aims to improve the well-being of others providing personal satisfaction and the desire to perform behavior altruistically, was added. The results show that, in a direct way, self-efficacy is the construct that has more influence on intention to donate blood, followed by the construct attitude. The construct moral norm also shows a high indirect influence on attitude. The Pro-social Behavior did not show any influence on intention to donate blood.
