Kuhn, Josepha; van den Berg, Pieter; Mamede, Silvia; Zwaan, Laura; Bindels, Patrick; van Gog, Tamara – Advances in Health Sciences Education, 2022
When physicians do not estimate their diagnostic accuracy correctly, i.e. show inaccurate "diagnostic calibration," diagnostic errors or overtesting can occur. A previous study showed that physicians' diagnostic calibration for easy cases improved, after they received feedback on their previous diagnoses. We investigated whether…

van Sassen, Charlotte G. M.; van den Berg, Pieter J.; Mamede, Silvia; Knol, Lilian; Eikens-Jansen, Manon P.; van den Broek, Walter W.; Bindels, Patrick J. E.; Zwaan, Laura – Advances in Health Sciences Education, 2023
Diagnostic reasoning is an important topic in General Practitioners' (GPs) vocational training. Interestingly, research has paid little attention to the content of the cases used in clinical reasoning education. Malpractice claims of diagnostic errors represent cases that impact patients and that reflect potential knowledge gaps and contextual…

Learning Deliberate Reflection in Medical Diagnosis: Does Learning-by-Teaching Help?
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed

Kuhn, Josepha; Mamede, Silvia; van den Berg, Pieter; Zwaan, Laura; van Peet, Petra; Bindels, Patrick; van Gog, Tamara – Advances in Health Sciences Education, 2023
Deliberate reflection has been found to foster diagnostic accuracy on complex cases or under circumstances that tend to induce cognitive bias. However, it is unclear whether the procedure can also be learned and thereby autonomously applied when diagnosing future cases without instructions to reflect. We investigated whether general practice…

Rosby, Lucy V.; Schmidt, Henk G.; Tan, Gerald J. S.; Low-Beer, Naomi; Mamede, Silvia; Zwaan, Laura; Rotgans, Jerome I. – Advances in Health Sciences Education, 2021
It was recently shown that novice medical students could be trained to demonstrate the speed-to-diagnosis and diagnostic accuracy typical of System-1-type reasoning. However, the effectiveness of this training can only be fully evaluated when considering the extent to which knowledge transfer and long-term retention occur as a result, the former…
