Like all humans, health professionals are subject to cognitive biases that can render diagnoses and treatment decisions vulnerable to error. Learning effective debiasing strategies and cultivating awareness of confirmation, anchoring, and outcomes biases and the affect heuristic, among others, and their effects on clinical decision making should be prioritized in all stages of education.
和所有人一样,健康专业人员也会受到认知偏差的影响,这可能会使诊断和治疗决策容易出错。在教育的各个阶段,都应优先学习有效的去偏策略,并提高对确认偏误、锚定效应、结果偏误和启发式判断等认知偏差,以及它们对临床决策的影响的认识。
