    Area of Science:

    • Medical Informatics
    • Artificial Intelligence in Medicine
    • Psychiatry

    Background:

    • Expert systems in medicine face challenges in design complexity and user acceptance.
    • Developing and implementing these systems requires significant effort and expertise.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To explore novel solutions for expert system design and acceptance barriers in medicine.
    • To assess the feasibility of involving medical trainees in knowledge engineering for psychiatric expert systems.

    Main Methods:

    • Knowledge engineering was conducted by psychiatry residents and medical students using the EMYCIN system.
    • A structured method for knowledge acquisition sessions was developed and analyzed.
    • The resulting expert system for depression psychopharmacology was evaluated for performance and acceptance.

    Main Results:

    • The study demonstrated that medical trainees can effectively contribute to expert system development.
    • The developed system showed promising performance, acceptance, and educational value.
    • The knowledge engineering process positively impacted the trainees' understanding and engagement.

    Conclusions:

    • Involving medical trainees in knowledge engineering is a viable strategy to address expert system development and acceptance challenges.
    • This approach offers a practical method for creating specialized medical expert systems and enhances medical education.
