Title of Project:

The Relationship Between Transformational Leadership and Organizational Learning Culture in Magnet and Non-Magnet Hospitals

Request to Participate in Research:

We would like to invite you to participate in a web-based online survey. The survey is part of a research study whose purpose is to explore the
relationship between nurse leadership behaviors and organizational culture in perioperative nursing units. This survey should take about 10-15 minutes to complete. You may start and finish the survey in separate sittings if you so desire.

We are asking you to participate in this study because you are a perioperative staff nurse.

The decision to participate in this research project is voluntary. You do not have to participate and you can refuse to answer any question. Even if you begin the web-based online survey, you can stop at any time.

The possible risks or discomforts of the study are minimal. However, you may feel a little uncomfortable answering professional survey questions.

You will not be paid for your participation in this study. However, your responses may help us learn more about perioperative nursing work environments and the effects of Magnet status on leadership and learning cultures in perioperative nursing.

Your part in this study will be handled in a confidential manner. Any reports or publications based on this research will use only group data and will not identify you or any individual as being affiliated with this project.
