Scientists, for instance, are often critical thinkers. Critical thinking also requires humility about what we know and don't know and the motivation to look beyond the obvious. It is essential for effective problem-solving.

Revisionist Views of Adolescent and Adult Cognition

26
A revisionist approach to Jean Piaget's theory of cognitive development has brought new insights that challenge and reinterpret his established ideas. Piaget proposed that the formal operational stage, emerging in adolescence, represents the culmination of cognitive maturity. During this stage, individuals are said to develop abstract thinking, engage in systematic problem-solving, and show a form of egocentrism, believing others are as preoccupied with their behavior as they are...

Patient-centered Care01:13

Patient-centered Care

2.0K
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...

Cognitive Development During Adolescence

44
During adolescence, individuals experience significant cognitive development that enhances their understanding of others' emotions and thoughts, known as cognitive empathy. This period is marked by an increased ability to adapt to others' perspectives and a more nuanced understanding of others' mental states, a skill that is foundational for social problem-solving and conflict avoidance. The development of cognitive empathy relies heavily on the theory of mind — the...

Area of Science:

  • Medical Education
  • Surgical Training
  • Clinical Communication

Background:

  • Texting is prevalent in clinical settings for patient care discussions.
  • Surgeons perceive texting negatively impacting trainee education.
  • Limited research exists on texting's effect on critical thinking in surgical training.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To explore surgical residents' perceptions of texting's influence on critical thinking.
  • To identify how modern communication methods affect clinical decision-making skills.

Main Methods:

  • Qualitative study employing interviews with surgical residents.
  • Directed content analysis of interview data.
  • Constructivist paradigm and member checking for data validation.

Main Results:

  • Four themes emerged: technocultural norm, altered practice patterns, de-emphasis of critical thinking, and methods to promote skills.
  • Texting and altered work demands shift focus from critical thinking to communication.
  • Residents suggested changes in feedback, team culture, and structured education.

Conclusions:

  • Texting may reduce critical thinking in clinical scenarios.
  • Educators should adapt communication strategies and culture to preserve critical thinking.
  • Structured education and cultural shifts can balance efficient texting with critical thinking development.
