Descriptive analysis of the nurse sample for the adjusted staffing model (n = 879).

N = number; SD = standard deviation; IQR = interquartile range.

DOI: 10.7717/peerj.15300/supp-2

Adjusted staffing model with the frequency of temporary nurses’ deployment.

CI = confidence interval; σ2 = residual variance; τ = rank correlation coefficient; ICC = Interclass correlation; N = number; R2 = R-squared; *p < 0.05; **p < 0.01; ***p < 0.001

Final model without leadership and variables related to the four permanently-employed nurses’ outcomes.

CI = confidence interval; σ2 = residual variance; τ = rank correlation coefficient; ICC = Interclass correlation; R2 = R-squared; *p < 0.05; **p < 0.01; ***p < 0.001
