| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Knowledge and attitudes of dialysis centers medical workers toward living kidney donations. | Knowledge and attitudes will be measured using a 38-item self-report questionnaire with single and multi-choice questions. | 22 months |
| How satisfaction with life impacts attitudes toward living kidney donation | Polish adaptations of a standardized tool will be used to measure satisfaction with life. Satisfaction with Life Scale with responses measured using a 7-point Likert scale, where: 7-I strongly agree, 6-I agree, 5-I tend to agree, 4-I neither agree nor disagree, 3-I tend to disagree, 2-I disagree, 1-I strongly disagree. The result of the measurement was a general indicator of the feeling of satisfaction with life ranging from 5 to 35 points (scores of 20 are considered neutral). | 22 months |
| How self-esteem impacts attitudes toward living kidney donation | Polish adaptations of standardized tools will be used to measure self-esteem. A 10-item Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale (RSES) with responses measured on a 4-item Likert scale where: 0 (strongly agree), 1 (agree), 2 (disagree), and 3 (strongly disagree). The maximum score is 30, and higher scores indicate higher self-esteem. | 22 months |
| How empathy impacts attitudes toward living kidney donation | Polish adaptations of standardized tools will be used to measure empathy. Davis' Interpersonal Reactivity Index (IRI), a 28-item self-report questionnaire using a 5-item Likert scale with two anchors (A=Does not describe me well; E=Describes me very well). The IRI covers multiple dimensions of empathy. | 22 months |
| How self-efficacy impacts attitudes toward living kidney donation | Polish adaptations of standardized tools will be used to measure self-efficacy. General Self-Efficacy Scale (GSE) with the total score calculated by finding the sum of all the items and ranges between 10 and 40, with a higher score indicating more self-efficacy. |
