Correction to Choi et al. (2022).

Reports an error in "Flaws and all: How mindfulness reduces error hiding by enhancing authentic functioning" by Ellen Choi, Hannes Leroy, Anya Johnson and Helena Nguyen (Journal of Occupational Health Psychology, 2022[Oct], Vol 27[5], 451-469). In the original article, in the first sentence of the paragraph under "Participants" in the "Part I: Method" section, changes were needed to correct four numbers from percentages to whole numbers. The sentence "Of the 230 participants, most were women (93.5%), which is representative of the health-care context, and 29.6% of participants were between the ages of 25% and 34%, 39.6% between 35% and 44%, and 20.0% between 45 and 54" should have said "Of the 230 participants, most were women (93.5%), which is representative of the health-care context, and 29.6% of participants were between the ages of 25 and 34, 39.6% between 35 and 44, and 20.0% between 45 and 54." The online version of this article has been corrected. (The following abstract of the original article appeared in record 2022-60042-001). Hiding errors can undermine safety by amplifying the risks of undetected errors. This article extends research on occupational safety by investigating error hiding in hospitals and applies self-determination theory to examine how mindfulness decreases error hiding through authentic functioning. We examined this research model in a randomized control trial (mindfulness training vs. active control group vs. waitlist control group) within a hospital setting. First, we used latent growth modeling to confirm that our variables were related as hypothesized, both statically or cross-sectionally as well as dynamically as they evolved over time. Next, we analyzed whether changes in these variables were a function of the intervention and confirmed the effects of the mindfulness intervention on authentic functioning and indirectly on error hiding. To elaborate on the role of authentic functioning, in a third step, we qualitatively explored the phenomenological experience of change experienced by participants in mindfulness and Pilates training. Our findings reveal that error hiding is attenuated because mindfulness encourages a receptive view of one's whole self, and authentic functioning enables an open and nondefensive way of relating to positive and negative information about oneself. These results add to research on mindfulness in organizations, error hiding, and occupational safety. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2023 APA, all rights reserved).
