The prevalence of myths preventing people partial to donation in Australia from consenting is unknown. Respondents (N = 468: 381 donors, 26 non-donors, 61 undecided) were surveyed about their (negative) donation beliefs. Approximately 30% of donors were neutral or supported negative beliefs about organ allocation, especially donation to undesirable organ recipients and a black market organ trade. Confusion about brain death, lack of family and religious support, and discomfort with donation were negative beliefs endorsed by some respondents irrespective of donor preference. Proportionally, donors had greater trust in hospitals/doctors than other groups. Some myths still exist but may vary with donation preference.
澳大利亚，一些阻止人们部分同意器官捐献的传言的流行程度尚不清楚。调查了 468 名受访者（381 名捐献者，26 名非捐献者，61 名未决定者）的（负面）捐献信仰。大约 30%的捐献者对器官分配的负面信仰持中立或支持态度，特别是将器官捐给不受欢迎的器官接受者和黑市器官交易。一些受访者无论捐献偏好如何，都对脑死亡、缺乏家庭和宗教支持以及对捐献的不适表示困惑。相比之下，与其他群体相比，捐献者对医院/医生的信任程度更高。一些传言仍然存在，但可能因捐献偏好而异。
