abstract="Disruptive behavior is known to produce a wide range of negative effects in healthcare, such as impacting patient safety, lowering employee morale, and decreasing employee retention. Healthcare organizations have worked towards eliminating disruptive behavior; however, despite countless interventions, the issue continues to be a problem today. Why then does the issue of disruptive behavior persist? We argue that one reason is the multiple ways disruptive behavior can be described, henceforth defined as the &quot;plurality of terms&quot;, which can make it difficult to collect relevant data by doing a simple literature search. Hence, we believe having a single definition for &quot;disruptive behavior&quot; will improve the meta-analysis on disruptive behavior research.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>",
