	Defensive donors (n=26)	Non-defensive donors (n=76)	Statistic
Motivation	17.73±9.12	17.68±7.12	t=−0.03, P=0.98
Concern	7.50±5.13	11.62±6.44	t=2.95, P<0.01

^*Depending on the T-score of K scale from the Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory-2 (MMPI-2), donors were divided into psychologically defensive donors (T-score of K scale ≥65) and non-defensive donors (T-score of K scale <65).
