BEHAVIORAL

Control ending - Uplifting

The control ending is emotionally uplifting. In this video, the decedent previously registered as an organ donor through online registration and discussed his decision with family. The scene cuts to the family affirming the deceased's wish. In the next scene, the donor family and recipient meet for the first time, ending with a plea from both parties for viewers to register for donation.

BEHAVIORAL

Negative Consequences Ending

A sad ending where the decedent did not register or discuss their position with family; family is asked to consider donation as an option, but they do not agree. The patient with kidney failure misses the window of opportunity, and the final scene is of both families grieving at their respective family members' grave plots…a missed opportunity.

BEHAVIORAL

Unresolved Ending

In this ending, the team checks for registration status, and while searching, the scene cuts to physicians discussing the death with family and whether they might consider preservation and organ donation. The video then cuts to the potential recipient and family hoping for a kidney transplant before it is too late. The story ends without resolution, leaving viewers to contemplate how they might respond in the same situation
