MULTIPLE CHOICE ss




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


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


making) is based on the experience and intuition of the clinician and is less reliable and paired with fairly common errors
s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s ss s s s s ss s s


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

Sources for diagnostic statistics include textbooks, primary reports of research, and published meta-
