Table 6 Logistic regression analyses on agreement with "My workplace is organized well to facilitate participation in quality improvement work" and "Time is designated in my work-hour schedule to work with quality improvement". The response categories were placed on a linear five-point scale from 1 ("completely disagree") to 5 ("completely agree"). To analyse the percentage of respondents who agreed, response categories were dichotomized into 0 (response categories 1–3) and 1 (response categories 4–5 (agreed))
