Thus, the null hypothesis H02 is rejected only in terms of age. The present study reveals a moderately significant positive correlation between knowledge and attitude of the students on blood donation (r = 0.37) which was statistically significant at 0.05 level of significance. Conclusion: After conducting the study it can be concluded that majority of the students have moderately adequate knowledge and have neutral attitude towards blood donation.
