| dc.description.abstract |
Clinicians are subject to the same errors in thinking that affect virtually all people. In particular, practitioners must be wary of (a) the misuse of certain heuristics (e.g., availability, representativeness) and (b) cognitive biases (e.g., confirmation bias, hindsight bias) in their everyday work. Fortunately, research has begun to identity ways of overriding these errors and thereby enhancing the quality of clinical judgments and predictions. |
