Critical Thinking II01:25

Critical Thinking II

Critical thinking is a cognitive process with several attributes. The attributes of critical thinking include the following:
Patient-centered Care01:13

Patient-centered Care

Patient-centered care involves delivering care beyond inpatient hospitalization. Reflective practice can enhance a patient-centered approach. Reflective practice is a process of reasoning that considers all aspects of the present situation, including practicalities, learning from personal practice, and consideration of patient needs. Patients appreciate care decisions made while considering their input. Involving the patient in their care provides the patient with a sense of contribution rather...
Critical Thinking I01:24

Critical Thinking I

Critical thinking helps decision-making and allows nurses to recognize barriers to success and find solutions to possible issues. It helps to brainstorm and implement ideas to achieve goals. Critical thinking helps acknowledge and state workflow inefficiencies while improving management techniques. Nurses understand the value of critical thinking and look for fellow nurses with critical thinking skills to upgrade their professional standards. Critical thinking can advance a nurse's career with...

Nursing Interventions II: Selecting and Classifying the Nursing Interventions

Creating and executing a nursing diagnosis helps nurses plan care and guide patient, family, and community interventions. They are developed based on a patient's physical evaluation and support measuring the outcomes. It is not recommended to select random interventions throughout the planning process. Instead, consider the following six essential factors when choosing interventions:
Ethical Dilemmas II01:30

Ethical Dilemmas II

Resolving an ethical dilemma in healthcare involves a systematic approach that considers every aspect of the issue, respecting both the patient's needs and values and the healthcare professional's ethical obligations. Here are potential steps to resolve an ethical dilemma:
Reason and Intuition01:37

Reason and Intuition

The human brain processes information for decision-making using one of two routes: an intuitive system and a rational system (Epstein, 1994; popularized by Kahneman, 2011 as System 1 and System 2, respectively). The intuitive system is quick, impulsive, and operates with minimal effort, relying on emotions or habits to provide cues for what to do next, while the rational system is logical, analytical, deliberate, and methodical. Research in neuropsychology suggests that the brain can only use...

Area of Science:

  • Medical Ethics
  • Cognitive Psychology
  • Clinical Decision-Making

Background:

  • Clinician intentions are crucial for ethical assessments.
  • Understanding psychological factors in intention attribution can improve clinical decision-making and ethics.
  • This study investigates the "asymmetric effect" in clinical contexts.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To examine how individuals attribute intentions to clinicians in decision-making scenarios.
  • To test for the "asymmetric effect" in intention ascription within a clinical context.

Main Methods:

  • 149 first and second-year medical students participated.
  • Participants were randomly assigned to two groups.
  • Anonymous responses were collected after presenting two clinical scenarios.

Main Results:

  • The "asymmetric effect" was evident in responses to scenario 2.
  • The "asymmetric effect" was not observed in responses to scenario 1.

Conclusions:

  • Evidence supports that evaluative judgments influence intention ascription.
  • People's perception of actions affects how they attribute intentions to others.
