Blood can save millions of lives. Even though people do not donate blood regularly, there is a constant effort to balance the supply and demand of blood. The aim of this study was, therefore, to determine the knowledge, attitude and practice of blood donation between university students.
The comparative cross sectional study design was used in Adama Science and Technology University and Arsi University from April 11-May 2, 2016.360 students were selected using stratified sampling. Frequencies and proportions were computed. Chi-Square and logistic regressions were carried out and associations were considered significant at <0.05.
The study revealed that there was a significant knowledge difference (χ2 = 152.779, <0.001) and Attitude difference (χ2 = 4.142, = 0.042) between Health Science students of Arsi University and Non-Health Science students of Adama Science and Technology University. The gender of the students (AOR = 3.150, 95% CI: 1.313, 7.554) was a significant predictor of the level of knowledge of Health Science students. The ethnicity of students (AOR = 2.085, 95% CI: 1.025, 4.243) was a significant predictor of the level of an attitude of Health Science students and gender of students (AOR = 0.343, 95% CI: 0.151, 0.779) was a significant predictor of the level of an attitude of Health Science students. Concerning Non-Health Science students, religion (AOR = 10.173, 95% CI: 1.191, 86.905) and original residence (AOR = 0.289, 95% CI: 0.094, 0.891) were a significant predictor of the level of knowledge of Non-Health Science students. Gender (AOR = 0.389, 95% CI: 0.152, 0.992) and Year of study (AOR = 0.389(0.164, 0.922) were significant predictor of level of attitude of Non-Health Science students. Year of study (AOR = 5.159, 95% CI: 1.611, 16.525) was a significant predictor of level of practice of Health Science students.
Significant knowledge difference and attitude difference were observed between students from Arsi University and Adama Science and Technology University.
血液能够挽救数百万人的生命。尽管人们并非定期献血，但一直在努力平衡血液的供需关系。因此，本研究的目的是确定大学生群体中献血方面的知识、态度和实践情况。
2016年4月11日至5月2日，在阿达马科学技术大学和阿尔西大学采用比较横断面研究设计。通过分层抽样选取了360名学生。计算了频率和比例。进行了卡方检验和逻辑回归分析，关联度在<0.05时被认为具有显著性。
研究表明，阿尔西大学健康科学专业学生与阿达马科学技术大学非健康科学专业学生之间存在显著的知识差异（χ2 = 152.779，<0.001）和态度差异（χ2 = 4.142，P = 0.042）。学生性别（优势比[AOR]=3.150，95%置信区间[CI]：1.313，7.554）是健康科学专业学生知识水平的显著预测因素。学生种族（AOR = 2.085，95% CI：1.025，4.243）是健康科学专业学生态度水平的显著预测因素，学生性别（AOR = 0.343，95% CI：0.151，0.779）是健康科学专业学生态度水平的显著预测因素。对于非健康科学专业学生，宗教信仰（AOR = 10.173，95% CI：1.191，86.905）和原居住地（AOR = 0.289，95% CI：0.094，0.891）是非健康科学专业学生知识水平的显著预测因素。性别（AOR = 0.389，95% CI：0.152，0.992）和学习年份（AOR = 0.389（0.164，0.922）是非健康科学专业学生态度水平的显著预测因素。学习年份（AOR = 5.159，95% CI：1.611，16.525）是健康科学专业学生实践水平的显著预测因素。
在阿尔西大学和阿达马科学技术大学的学生之间观察到了显著的知识差异和态度差异。
