Optimizing Educational Video Designs to Improve Minority Organ Donor Registration - Aim 2 Randomized Trial Comparing Testimonials Versus Documentary Videos

Investigators will evaluate organ donation educational videos with a 2x3 single blinded
Randomized Control Trial (RCT) in partnership with our 26 Latino Owned Barbershops (LOBs).
The testimonial video about Uncontrolled Donation after Circulatory Determination of Death
(uDCDD) with an uplifting ending will serve as control. Experimental videos may include live
uDCDD footage, differing endings, or combinations. Video production will be informed by the
entertainment education model and produced with experts including an Academy Award winning
filmmaker. The primary outcome is whether participants immediately enroll in the NY State
Organ Donor Registry (either online or by our RA mailing in the official form with prepaid
postage). Investigators hypothesize that each video will induce differences in registration
compared to the control and that there is an interaction effect with video genre and story
outcome.
