MULTIPLE CHOICE gb




1. ANS: B
Croskerry (2009) describes two major types of clinical diagnostic decision-
gb gb gb gb gb gb gb gb gb


making: intuitive and analytical. Intuitive decision- making (similar to Augenblink decision-

making) is based on the experience and intuition of the clinician and is less reliable and paired with fairly common errors. In
gb gb gb gb gb gb gb gb gb gb gb gb gb gb gb gb gb gb gb gb gb


contrast, analytical decision-making is based on careful consideration and has greater reliability with rare errors.
