Description
Hujie Wang, Martina Buljac-Samardzic, Jeroen van Wijngaarden, and Joris van de Klundert survey staff in rural hospitals in China. Their study is from two thousand twenty-four. Hospital teams there now span several generations working side by side. The authors ask whether a mix of ages helps or harms how a team works.
More than eight hundred doctors, nurses, and other staff in four hospitals took part. The survey measured how similar teammates felt to each other, beyond age alone. It also measured three team behaviors: speaking up with concerns, staying silent, and sharing knowledge. The team tested whether felt similarity carries the effect of age mix onto those behaviors. Such behaviors matter for the quality and safety of patient care.
