Background: In education, we can use cinema to create methodologies that develop the critical thinking to acquire knowledge in a collaborative way. Favorable attitudes toward organ donation and transplantation (ODT) is low in adolescents. Working on topics related to ODT, such as religion, immigration, and the law, can help to improve students' knowledge and endear them toward ODT with innovative educational methodologies.
Objectives: This study aims to analyze the change in knowledge about religion, immigration, and legislation on ODT after an educational proposal based on film creation.
Methods: In this study, 16-year-old students participated in an educational proposal based on ODT education through filmmaking. A total of 543 students participated in the experimental group, and 320 participated in the control group. A validated ODT knowledge form was administered to both groups. Statistical analysis was carried out with SPSS version 21.0 package (SPSS, Inc, Chicago, IL, USA). A descriptive analysis and χ test were performed to analyze the differences between the experimental group and control group. P < .05 was considered statistically significant.
Results: The study had a 72% participation rate in the experimental group. After receiving the educational proposal, the students presented a greater knowledge with respect to the control group in all aspects: the position of the different religions in relation to organ donation, knowledge of the rights and obligations of immigrants in relation to the ODT, and knowledge of the law of presumed consent in ODT CONCLUSIONS: Working in the classroom on psychosocial aspects such as religion, immigration, and legislation through filmmaking can favorably influence the adolescent's awareness of organ donation.

We argue that context can shape religious practice shortly after arrival. Using a nationally representative survey of Syrian refugees with children who arrived between late 2015 and 2018, we examine how often parents talk to their children about religion, a central mechanism in religious socialization.

Preferences for homogamous partnerships, not only in terms of having a partner with the same ethnicity, but one with the same religion, are an important factor in explaining low levels of interethnic partnerships in Western countries. However, previous research has rarely explicitly focused on the role of preferences for partnership formation patterns. Using data from a factorial survey experiment, which was implemented in the 9th wave of the "Children of Immigrants Longitudinal Survey in Four European Countries" among young adults in Germany (CILS4EU-DE), this study explores patterns of religious homophily in partnership preferences among young adults in Germany.
