Measuring labor and delivery unit culture and clinicians ’ attitudes toward birth: Revision and validation of the Labor Culture Survey

These findings support prior research that has shown that hospital culture is measurable, and that clinician attitudes are predictive of clinician behaviors. Unique to our survey is the construct of labor and delivery unit microculture.
