- Title
In Support of a Journey of Metacognition.
- Authors
Friedman, Steven; Guo, Ray
- Abstract
The author comments on the reflective article "To Keep an Incessant Watch" which describes a medical resident's comparison of his working patient diagnoses whom he referred for admission with final discharge diagnoses. The author observes that the exercise has motivated the resident to reflect on his practice. He points out that the near misses and errors that the resident has identified reflect cognitive dispositions responding to clinical situations in bias-driven ways.
