چکیده

هدف این پژوهش شناسایی تأثیر عوامل فرهنگ و ساختار سازمان بر افشاگری است. پژوهش حاضر به‎صورت رویکرد ترکیبی به اجرا درآمد. برای مرحلۀ نخست پژوهش، رویکرد کیفی مد نظر قرار گرفت و در آن از روش دلفی استفاده شد. با دستیابی به اجماع نظر، 21 گویه با ضریب توافق 441/0 به‎دست آمد. در مرحلۀ دوم پژوهش رویکرد کمی مدنظر قرار گرفت؛ بدین‎گونه که بر اساس نتایج تکنیک دلفی، پرسشنامه‌ای تهیه شد و روایی آن با استفاده از معیارهای CVI و CVR ارزیابی شد و به تأیید رسید. برای ارزیابی پایایی پرسشنامه از آلفای کرونباخ استفاده شد، به‎گونه‌ای که مقدار مناسب 802/0 برای آن به‎دست آمد. پرسشنامه در اختیار جامعۀ مد نظر قرار گرفت و 274 نسخه از آن توسط پرستاران، پزشکان و کادر اداری بیمارستان الزهرا در اصفهان تکمیل شد. با به‎کارگیری مدل‌سازی معادلات ساختاری (SEM) داده‌های به‎دست‎آمده در مدل طراحی‎‎شده آزمون شد. نتایج ارزیابی، برازش کلی مدل را تأیید کرد و نشان داد تأثیر هر دو عامل ساختار سازمان و فرهنگ سازمان بر افشاگری معناردار است.

چکیده [English]

The puppose of this research is identification of the impact of Organizational Culture Factors and Organizational Structure Factors on Whistle-Blowing. We used mixed method. At first stage, we used qualitative method; so, we used Delphi Technic and finally, by reaching consensus comments, we found 21 items with 0/441 Coefficient of agreement. Then, in the second stage, we use quantitative approach; in this way, based on finding in Delphi Technic, we produced a questionaire and appraised validity of that by CVI and CVR measures. They were confirmed. Thereupon, for appraising reliability, we used Cronbach's alpha. This amount was 0/802. Therefore, we distributed the questionaire in target population, 274 number of them were completed by nurses and doctors and administrative personnel in Alzahra Hospital in Isfahan. Finally, we used Structural Equation Modeling for desinging model. Finding showed overall fitness of model is good and the impact of both factors: structural factor and cultural factor are meaningfull.
