Figure 5
The path diagram includes two circles: “External Events’ Caused O R” on the left and “Operational Performance” on the right. The circle labeled “External Events’ Caused O R” is connected to four rectangles arranged diagonally on the left labeled from top to bottom as “E E O R 1,” “E E O R 2,” “E E O R 3,” and “E E O R 4”. Each rectangle links to the circle with leftward arrows showing the respective path coefficients: 0.813 (0.000) for “E E O R 1,” 0.816 (0.000) for “E E O R 2,” 0.816 (0.000) for “E E O R 3,” and 0.866 (0.000) for “E E O R 4”. The circle labeled “Operational Performance,” having a value of 0.538, is connected to six vertically arranged rectangles on the right labeled from top to bottom as “O P 1,” “O P 2,” “O P 3,” “O P 4,” “O P 5,” and “O P 6”. Each rectangle links with leftward arrow and connects to the circle labeled “Operational Performance,” showing the respective path coefficients: 0.070 (0.289) from “O P 1,” “negative 0.035 (0.544)” from “O P 2,” “negative 0.083 (0.144)” from “O P 3,” 0.096 (0.505) from “O P 4,” 0.898 (0.000) from “O P 5,” and 0.096 (0.113) from “O P 6”. A horizontal arrow connects “External Events’ Caused O R” to “Operational Performance,” labeled with a path coefficient of 0.735 (0.000).A path analysis of external events caused and operational performance.
