The questionnaires that used for data collection included: demographics information,COPSOQ and CFQ questionnaires. To analyze the relationship between variables, independent t-test, ANOVA, Pearson correlation coefficient and linear regression analysis were used.
Results: There was a significant relationship between the majority of dimensions of psychosocial work factors such as role clarity, influence at work, job satisfaction, and insecurity at work, quantitative demands, emotional demands, total job demands and meaning of work with cognitive failures of nurses. Also, the dimensions of total job demands, meaning of work and influence at work with high and significant correlations had a good predictition of cognitive failure in nurses.
Conclusion: According to the results, some of the psychosocial work factors affects on the rate of cognitive failures.
