5
To identify the key knowledge, skills and attitudes related to patient safety competencies for all health-care professionals
6
Abilities that contribute to competence
7
What kinds of abilities?
8
Critical Thinking and Decision Making
9
Critical Thinking
10
Specific Abilities underlying Critical Thinking
to know and understand Dual Process Theory to recognize distracting stimuli, propaganda, bias, irrelevance to identify, analyze, and challenge assumptions in arguments to be aware of cognitive fallacies and poor reasoning to recognize deception, deliberate or otherwise to assess credibility of information to monitor and control own thought processes to monitor and control own affective state to be aware of the impact of fatigue and sleep deprivation on decision making to be able to imagine and explore alternatives to effectively work through problems to be aware of the importance of the context under which decisions are made to make effective decisions to anticipate the consequences of decisions
11
‘Those who are responsible for teaching students and residents …should try to identify clearly, separate, and then extract these critically important cognitive tasks from courses that encompass myriad unrelated skills and knowledge..’ Kassirer, 1995
12
Decision making
14
The Emergence of Dual Process Theory
15
System 1 and System 2 (how your brain works)
16
System 1 (intuitive) Cognitive style Heuristic Cognitive awareness Low Cost Low Automaticity High Rate Fast Reliability Low Errors Usually Effort Low Predictive power Low Emotional component High Scientific rigour Low System 2 (analytical) Systematic High Low Slow Few

Blink Malcolm Gladwell (2005)
‘We really only trust conscious decision making. But there are moments, particularly in times of stress, when haste does not make waste, when our snap judgments and first impressions can offer a much better means of making sense of the world. The first task of Blink is to convince you of a simple fact: decisions made very quickly can be every bit as good as decisions made cautiously and deliberately’ P 14
20
Think Michael Legault (2006)
‘The technique by which we make good decisions and produce good work is a nuanced and interwoven mental process involving bits of emotion, observation, intuition, and critical reasoning. The emotion and intuition are the easy, “automatic” parts, the observation and critical reasoning skills the more difficult, acquired parts. The essential background to all this is a solid base of knowledge.’ P 12
