Memory Indexing of Sequential Symptom Processing in Diagnostic Reasoning
In diagnostic reasoning, knowledge about symptoms and their likely causes is retrieved to generate and update diagnostic hypotheses in memory. By letting participants learn about causes and symptoms in a spatial array, we could apply eye tracking during diagnostic reasoning to trace the activation level of hypotheses across a sequence of symptoms and to evaluate process models of diagnostic rea...
متن کاملMemory Activation in Diagnostic Reasoning
In the field of diagnostic reasoning, it has been argued that memory activation can provide the reasoner with a subset of possible explanations from memory that is highly adaptive for the task at hand. However, few studies have experimentally tested this assumption. Even less empirical and theoretical work has investigated how newly incoming observations affect the availability of explanations ...
متن کاملParallel Belief Updating in Sequential Diagnostic Reasoning
In sequential diagnostic reasoning the goal is to determine the most likely cause for a number of sequentially observed effects. Potential hypotheses are narrowed down by integrating the cumulating observed evidence leading to the selection of one among several hypotheses. In the reported diagnostic reasoning experiment, thirty-eight participants were tested with quasi-medical problems consisti...

متن کاملThe Influence of Spreading Activation on Memory Retrieval in Sequential Diagnostic Reasoning
A crucial aspect of diagnostic reasoning is the integration of sequentially incoming information into a consistent mental representation. While research stresses the importance of working memory in such a task, it is not clear how the information represented in working memory can guide the retrieval of associated information from longterm memory. Factors that might influence this retrieval are ...
