Background Examining cognitive medical errors (MEs) and their contributing factors is vital in health systems research, as it provides baseline data that can be used to develop appropriate interventions to prevent and/or minimize errors. The primary aim of this study was to investigate the association between cognitive MEs and hospitals’ organizational factors and the individual psychological and functional factors. Methods This cross-sectional study was conducted in three main hospitals in Northern Jordan. A proportional sampling technique was employed to decide the number of participants from each hospital. Data from physicians and nurses (n=400) were collected using a self-administered questionnaire, which was developed based on pertinent literature review. Exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses were conducted to validate the study instrument. The relationships between the variables were analyzed through structural equation modeling (SEM) using AMOS. Multi-group analysis was also performed to examine the differences in the participants’ perceptions towards the respective variables between the three selected hospitals. Results Our results showed a non-significant negative association between MEs and hospital organizational factors. Also, the SEM analysis showed a positive significant correlation between MEs and psychological and functional factors, whereby excessive workload, complexity of tasks, stress, sleep deprivation, and fatigue were found to be predictors of MEs occurrence. In comparison to the results from the university hospital, the multi-group analysis results from the governmental public hospital and the private hospital showed a significant impact of psychological and functional factors on MEs. Conclusion To reduce the occurrence of MEs in hospitals, there is a need to enhance organizational safety culture. Efforts should be directed at both organizational and individual levels. Also, it is essential that health decision makers develop strategies to reduce work-related stress and improve healthcare staff well-being, as work stress may cause cognitive impairments among healthcare workers and hence threaten patients’ safety.

“…Convergent validity is the degree to which that constructs that are expected to be related are, in fact, related. For convergent validity, it will be verified through average variance extracted (AVE) [30]. AVE measure the amount of variance captured by a construct by calculating the ratio of the amount of the variance captured by the construct and the measurement variance.…”

Talent management practice is crucial in relating the potential talent. The GLCs need to have a potential talent in order to continue the value creation for business competitiveness. Moreover, talent that possesses high level of commitment and engagement will add value in the organization. This study aims to examine the relationship between talent management practices and employee engagement of employees at GLCs. The sample included 230 employees, which were selected randomly. For this study the method for data collection uses a structured questionnaire and were analyzed using partial least square. The hypothesis in this study is accepted whereby on the empirical evidences, it proves the relationship between talent management practices and employee engagement‥

“…Previa la estimación del modelo PLS SEM, se realizó un análisis factorial confirmatorio para probar la confiabilidad y validez de los factores de interés en el estudio [58]. Para evaluar la confiabilidad de los reactivos asociados a los factores, se analizó el Alfa de Cronbach para evaluar el nivel de consistencia interna en base al valor critico de 0.7 [59].…”

Raising the business profile of organizations is one of the constant goals to survive in today's competitive market. Absorption capacity and entrepreneurial orientation, such as organizational skills and behaviours, have proven relevant in improving the performance of institutions. This study aims to examine the relationship between absorptive capacity and entrepreneurial orientation in financial institutions. To this end, a study was carried out in one of the three representative banks of Ecuador, in which the competencies at the partner level were analyzed since the key role played by human capital in the execution and implementation of business strategies was recognized. In addition, the level of autonomy of the collaborator is analyzed as a moderating variable. The results obtained, through the estimation of a Model of Structural Equations, demonstrate that the absorptive capacity has a positive and significant influence on the entrepreneurial orientation of the collaborator.
