The Safety Attitudes Questionnaire (SAQ) is used to assess patient safety attitudes in various healthcare settings. This systematic review including 43 studies concluded that the SAQ is valid for use in primary care settings but should be further validated for use in specific primary care settings (e.g., out-of-hours clinics, health centers).
