1. An intervention integrating online videos and motivational interviewing through telephone significantly increased expression of organ donation wish to family members, compared with only receiving a text message related to organ donation.
2. However, the increase in expression of organ donation wish to family members did not increase the rate of new organ donation registration.
3. Participants were satisfied with the motivational interviewing session and considered the narrative stories and information in the videos the most useful.
4. Most participants discussed the organ donation issue with family members during family gatherings.
