Core Tip

Core Tip: This study explores the link between organ donation and transplantation knowledge and health-related quality of life (HRQoL), with a focus on the mediating role of future anxiety. Findings reveal that increased knowledge is associated with improved HRQoL and reduced future anxiety. Structural Equation Modeling shows that future anxiety partially mediates this relationship, indicating that reducing future anxiety can amplify the positive effects of knowledge on HRQoL. These results highlight the importance of educational interventions to boost public awareness, reduce anxiety, and promote overall well-being.
