2.2. Study Participants

The participants of this study were patient safety coordinators working in hospitals with more than 100–300 beds. Those who have only been registered by submitting an application to the Ministry of Health and Welfare, and those who have been at work for less than one month, were excluded. The sample size was calculated using the G*power 3.1.9.7 program (Düsseldorf, Germany) at the significance level 0.05, effect size 0.15, statistical power 0.80, and 10 predictors. The minimum number of participants required was 118. A total of 132 participants completed the questionnaire, but 11 were excluded due to a lack of standard data. Finally, data from 121 participants were included in the analysis.
