Summary:

This dissertation describes four studies aimed at improving the teaching of clinical reasoning in medical education. These studies answer two main questions. The studies described in Chapters 2-4 investigated the first main question. They tested whether participants can learn a specific procedure for deliberate reflection, so that they can apply it when diagnosing new cases. The study described in Chapter 5 investigated the second main question. It was tested whether participants could learn to better estimate how well they had diagnosed a case. The studies were conducted among students and physicians in general-practice training.
