Core Tip	The role of a pre-donation sociopsychological evaluation of a donor candidate is as important to the success of the procedure as is the medical assessment. This implies recovery from the operation and prompt engagement in pre-transplant professional and social activities without leading to psychological or physical distress. The present study evaluates socio-demographics and psychological aspects of potential living liver donors for pediatric liver transplantation in a cohort of 250 patients. It also investigates specific questions regarding donation, decision-making processes, and feelings of ambivalence.
