Opening the Black Box: Cognitive Strategies in Family Practice
Ann Fam Med Christensen et al. 3: 144

The Article in Brief

This study analyzed the ways in which 18 family physicians make decisions during patient visits. The family physicians used specific, highly individualized, styles for structuring tasks. In addition, features of the decision-making behavior of family physicians were similar to those of expert decision makers in other fields. The authors call for tailoring practice improvement efforts to the different cognitive styles of physicians.
