TLDR
In this paper, the authors focused on the relationship between negative emotionality and learning from errors and found a positive association between negative emotions and motivation to learn and perceived managerial intolerance of errors and emotional stability.
Abstract
This research focused on the relationship between negative emotionality and learning from errors Specifically, negative emotionality was expected to impair learning from errors by decreasing motivation to learn Perceived managerial intolerance of errors was hypothesized to increase negative emotionality, whereas emotional stability was proposed to decrease negative emotionality All the hypotheses were tested in a laboratory simulation Contrary to the prediction, a positive association was found between negative emotionality and motivation to learn The effects of perceived managerial intolerance of errors and emotional stability on negative emotionality were as predicted Moreover, exploratory data analyses were conducted at the level of specific negative emotions and revealed differentiated effects of specific negative emotions on learning from errors Copyright © 2010 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd

Establishing a safe container for learning in simulation: the role of the presimulation briefing

TL;DR: It is argued that certain practices create a psychologically safe context for learning, a so-called safe container, that allows learners to engage actively in simulation plus debriefings despite possible disruptions to that engagement such as unrealistic aspects of the simulation.

Learning in the Twenty-First-Century Workplace

TL;DR: In this paper, a selective review of research on learning that occurs in many different forms and at the individual, team, and organizational levels is presented, organized around five themes: thinking differently about learning, reconsidering the form and design of learning, facilitating learning in the workplace, expanding the scope of learning outcomes, and improving methodology in learning research.

Action Errors, Error Management, and Learning in Organizations

TL;DR: This review suggests that error prevention needs to be supplemented by error management--an approach directed at effectively dealing with errors after they have occurred, with the goal of minimizing negative and maximizing positive error consequences.

Learning from Errors.

TL;DR: Experimental investigations indicate that errorful learning followed by corrective feedback is beneficial to learning, and the beneficial effects are particularly salient when individuals strongly believe that their error is correct.

The moderator–mediator variable distinction in social psychological research: Conceptual, strategic, and statistical considerations.

TL;DR: This article seeks to make theorists and researchers aware of the importance of not using the terms moderator and mediator interchangeably by carefully elaborating the many ways in which moderators and mediators differ, and delineates the conceptual and strategic implications of making use of such distinctions with regard to a wide range of phenomena.

Structural equation modeling in practice: a review and recommended two-step approach

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors provide guidance for substantive researchers on the use of structural equation modeling in practice for theory testing and development, and present a comprehensive, two-step modeling approach that employs a series of nested models and sequential chi-square difference tests.

Comparative fit indexes in structural models

TL;DR: A new coefficient is proposed to summarize the relative reduction in the noncentrality parameters of two nested models and two estimators of the coefficient yield new normed (CFI) and nonnormed (FI) fit indexes.
