(1) The aim of the present study was to assess the effect of sociodemographic (age, sex, religion, place of residence) and university-related factors (university, year of studies) on the attitudes of students towards organ donation and transplantation. (2) Methods: The study was conducted on 1530 students from the Faculty of Medicine from three medical universities in Poland. The measurement tool was a validated questionnaire of attitude towards organ donation and transplantation (PCID-DTO RIOS: A questionnaire designed by the International Collaborative Organ Donation project about organ transplantation and donation). (3) Results: The completion rate was 88.10% (n = 1348). The vast majority declared a willingness to donate their organs in the future (86.60%), and 31.71% had an organ donation card. It was found that place of residence ( = 0.018) and religion ( = 0.003) had a significant effect on the attitude towards transplantation. Age, sex, and year of the study were not found to have a statistically significant effect on the decision. (4) Conclusions: The present study demonstrates that medical students show a favourable attitude towards transplantation in the first year of their study, and their knowledge and positive tendencies increase in the final years of medical education.
(1) 本研究旨在评估社会人口统计学因素（年龄、性别、宗教、居住地）和与大学相关的因素（大学、学习年限）对学生对器官捐赠和移植态度的影响。(2) 方法：研究对象为来自波兰三所医学院校的 1530 名医学生。测量工具是一份经过验证的器官捐赠和移植态度问卷（PCID-DTO RIOS：由国际器官捐赠合作项目设计的关于器官移植和捐赠的问卷）。(3) 结果：完成率为 88.10%（n=1348）。绝大多数人表示未来愿意捐献器官（86.60%），31.71%的人有器官捐献卡。研究发现，居住地（ = 0.018）和宗教（ = 0.003）对移植态度有显著影响。年龄、性别和学习年限与决策无统计学意义。(4) 结论：本研究表明，医学生在学习的第一年就表现出对移植的有利态度，他们的知识和积极倾向在医学教育的最后几年增加。
