Donors (n = 42) to an artificial-insemination-by-donor sperm clinic were surveyed to ascertain individual motivations and attitudes regarding participation. Responses were compared to those of a matched control group (n = 50) of nondonors. Donors were motivated by money, with the majority (69%) unwilling to participate if financial incentives were withdrawn. Anonymity was desired, and donors did not favor disclosure of information to a national registry tracking insemination outcomes. However, donors and controls did endorse providing sperm for an infertile brother. Donors and controls differed significantly in response to 2 of 15 questions asked, with differences due to perceptions of donor motivation. Although perceived as altruistic by peers, donors did not envision themselves as such, and most considered donating semen similar to donating blood or organs.
对一家供精人工授精诊所的42名捐赠者进行了调查，以确定他们参与捐赠的个人动机和态度。将这些回答与50名非捐赠者组成的匹配对照组的回答进行了比较。捐赠者受金钱驱使，如果取消经济激励，大多数人（69%）不愿意参与。他们希望保持匿名，并且不赞成向追踪授精结果的国家登记处披露信息。然而，捐赠者和对照组都认可为不育的兄弟提供精子。在被问到的15个问题中，捐赠者和对照组对其中2个问题的回答存在显著差异，差异源于对捐赠者动机的认知。尽管同龄人认为捐赠者是利他的，但捐赠者并不这样看待自己，并且大多数人认为捐赠精液类似于献血或捐献器官。
