When families talk: Applying Interpretive Phenomenological Analysis (IPA) to African 
American families discussing their awareness, commitment, and knowledge of organ 
donation
Abstract
This paper applies Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis (IPA) as a means to 
understand how African American families discuss their knowledge, awareness and 
commitment to organ donation.  African American family dyads (n=20) participated in 
self-directed interaction conversational dyads based upon the Organ Donation Model, 
which is grounded in the Theory of Reasoned Action and the Theory of Motivated 
Information Management.  Results indicate that the media strongly influences ones 
willingness to participate in the organ donation process and greater attention should be 
given to cultural-specific campaigns to increase the number of African American donors. 
Keywords: Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis, organ donation, African American, 
qualitative study
