Over the past three decades, human factors research has contributed to the development of tools to assess safety attitudes; however, their ability to capture the unique characteristics of OR environments remains unclear.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Objective:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>This scoping review aimed to examine the evolution of safety culture assessment in the OR, identify key trends, and explore limitations of existing approaches.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>A literature-informed narrative overview was conducted focusing on studies assessing safety culture in OR teams, particularly those using the Safety Attitudes Questionnaire (SAQ), its operating room version (SAQ-OR), and related instruments.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Nineteen studies were included. Most employed cross-sectional designs, while a limited number evaluated interventions such as surgical safety checklists and team training programmes. SAQ-based instruments were the most commonly used. Most studies originated from Europe and North America, with few from Asian health care settings.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Safety culture research in the OR has primarily focused on measurement rather than intervention. Existing tools may not fully reflect the context-specific characteristics of OR environments.
