There are methodological issues associated with using hospital ownership and size as determinants of the structure and behaviors of hospitals. Theoretical and empirical inconsistencies reported in the literature prompted me to examine the relationships between ownership and size for a large sample of general hospitals (i.e., hospitals in one domain). The results of my investigation point to the advisability of including hospitals with religious affiliations in studies of this type. Some of the methodological issues pertinent to hospital-organization studies are relevant to other organization research.
将医院所有权和规模用作医院结构与行为的决定因素存在一些方法学问题。文献中报道的理论和实证不一致促使我对大量综合医院（即一个领域内的医院）的所有权与规模之间的关系进行研究。我的调查结果表明，在这类研究中纳入有宗教附属关系的医院是可取的。一些与医院组织研究相关的方法学问题也与其他组织研究相关。
