Adverse Events and Burnout
BACKGROUND: Prior research has found that adverse events have significant negative consequences for the patients (first victim) and caregivers (second victim) involved such as burnout. However, research has yet to examine the consequences of adverse events on members of caregiving units. We also lack research on the effects of the personal and job resources that shape the context of how adverse events are experienced. OBJECTIVES: We test the rela…
Exploring Nonlinearity In Employee Voice
We investigated the relationship between personal control–employees' perceptions of autonomy and impact at work–and voice–employees' expression of challenging but constructive work-related opinions, concerns, or ideas. Specifically, we developed and tested an explanation that integrates two conceptual perspectives (i.e., dissatisfaction-based versus expectancy-based) on the effects of personal control. Using data from 586 nurses, we found that th…
Employee Silence on Critical Work Issues
This study examined the cross‐level effects of procedural justice climate on employee silence—that is, the intentional withholding of critical work‐related information by employees from their workgroup members. In a survey‐based study of 606 nurses nested within 30 workgroups, we found that procedural justice climate moderated the effects of individual‐level antecedents of employee silence. Specifically, when procedural justice climate was higher…
Development and Validation of Measures to Assess Prevention and Control of AMR in Hospitals
BACKGROUND: The rapid spread of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) in the US hospitals poses serious quality and safety problems. Expert panels, identifying strategies for optimizing antibiotic use and preventing AMR spread, have recommended hospitals undertake efforts to implement specific evidence-based practices. OBJECTIVE: To develop and validate a measurement scale for assessing hospitals' efforts to implement recommended AMR prevention and cont…
Latent errors and adverse organizational consequences
We develop the concept of latent errors—uncorrected deviations from procedures and policies that have no direct adverse consequences—and examine the complex relationships between organizational antecedents, latent errors, and adverse consequences. Latent errors, with varying levels of frequency, are present in all organizations whereas extreme adverse outcomes are rare. Thus, all organizations become potential objects of study in research on erro…
