{"pk":32921,"title":"Diagnostic Reasoning of High- and Low-Domain Knowledge","subtitle":null,"abstract":"Thinking aloud protocols previously obtained by Joseph and Patcl were re-analyzed to determine the extent to which their conclusions could be replicated by independently developed coding schemes. The data set consisted of protocols from 4 cardiologists (low domain knowledge = LDK) and 4 endocrinologists (high domain knowledge = H D K ) , individually woricing on a diagnostic problem in endocrinology. Both analyses found that H D K physicians related daU to potential diagnoses more than the L D K group, and that there were trends for H D K physicians to be more focused on the correct diagnostic components and to employ more single-cue inference and less multiple-cue inference. However, the re-analysis found no meaningful differences between groups in diagnostic accuracy, speed of diagnosis, or in the breadth of the search space used to seek a solution. The generalizability of results of protocol-analysis studies can be assessed by using several complementary coding schemes.","language":"eng","license":{"name":"","short_name":"","text":null,"url":""},"keywords":[],"section":"Poster Presentations","is_remote":true,"remote_url":"https://escholarship.org/uc/item/1b58r3r7","frozenauthors":[{"first_name":"Arthur","middle_name":"S.","last_name":"Elstein","name_suffix":"","institution":"University of Illinois at Chicago","department":""},{"first_name":"Benjamin","middle_name":"","last_name":"Kleinmuntz","name_suffix":"","institution":"University of Illinois at Chicago","department":""},{"first_name":"Mitchell","middle_name":"","last_name":"Rabinowitz","name_suffix":"","institution":"University of Illinois at Chicago","department":""},{"first_name":"Robert","middle_name":"","last_name":"McAuley","name_suffix":"","institution":"University of Illinois at Chicago","department":""},{"first_name":"James","middle_name":"","last_name":"Murakami","name_suffix":"","institution":"University of Illinois at Chicago","department":""},{"first_name":"Paul","middle_name":"S.","last_name":"Heckerling","name_suffix":"","institution":"University of Illinois at Chicago","department":""},{"first_name":"James","middle_name":"M.","last_name":"Dod","name_suffix":"","institution":"University of Illinois at Chicago","department":""}],"date_submitted":null,"date_accepted":null,"date_published":"1991-01-01T18:00:00Z","render_galley":null,"galleys":[{"label":"PDF","type":"pdf","path":"https://journalpub.escholarship.org/cognitivesciencesociety/article/32921/galley/23981/download/"}]}
