Abstract:
Clinical decision support systems (CDSS) assist physicians and other medical professionals in tasks such as differential diagnosis. End users may use different decision-making strategies depending on medical training. Study of eye movements reveals information processing strategies that are executed at a level below consciousness. Eye tracking of student physician assistants and medical residents, while using a visual diagnostic CDSS in diagnostic tasks, showed adoption of distinct strategies and informed recommendations for effective user interface design.
