Abstract

Aims: To explore (1) whether managers' perception of patient and visitor aggression differs between countries, management levels and care settings (general hospital/mental health) and (2) perceived team-efficacy in association with social structural variables (e.g. communication), leadership characteristics, and organizational support factors (e.g. administration attitude, care environment).
