The purpose of this study was to investigate the adolescents' social attitudes toward brain death and transplantation from the brain death. 210 college students answered the questionnaire about their knowledge about brain death, their attitude toward transplantation from the brain death and their will to donate their body when they or their family member become the condition of brain death. The same questionnaire was conducted before and after the short lecture and the group discussion. 81 students changed their attitudes toward negative direction and 27 students changed their attitudes toward positive direction. The results suggested that the more knowledge the students gain, the more cautious attitude they have in general.
