1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

backgroundThe spiritual climate in the workplace has become more important in recent years, especially regarding organizational performance and employee well-being. However, its effect on nurses' organizational commitment in Poland and Slovakia has not yet been studied.

aimThis study aimed to examine the influence of hospital's spiritual climate on organizational commitment as perceived by nurses in Slovakia and Poland.

designCross-sectional and correlational study.

methodsThe research involved a convenience sample of 390 nurses from Poland and Slovakia. The online questionnaire consisted of three parts: sociodemographic characteristics of respondents, Spiritual Climate Scale (SCS), and Three-Component Model (TCM) Employee Commitment Survey. A standard multiple linear regression model was performed to investigate the influence of spiritual climate and sociodemographic variables on each of the TCM survey subscales.

resultsOver half of the respondents (53.3%) experienced positive sensations according to the spiritual climate at their hospitals, but only one in three (33.1%) felt encouraged to express their spirituality at work. Affective commitment scored highest among nurses, followed by normative and continuance commitment. Regression models showed significant predictors, with managerial role, age, education, nationality, and perceived spiritual climate influencing commitment levels across subscales.

conclusionThe study showed that a positive hospital spiritual climate leads to higher organizational engagement, according to nurses from two European countries. IMPLICATIONS FOR NURSING MANAGEMENT: Hospital policymakers, administrators, and nursing leaders should consider integrating interventions and policies that promote a favorable spiritual climate in hospitals to ensure more committed nurses.
