1/🧵Human Error in Decision Making and Judgment:
For those who loved @NobelPrize Laureate’s book Thinking Fast & Slow, there is a new Kahneman book called Noise reviewed @TheLancet. It’s worthy of a bit of commentary…

2/In statistics, #NOISE refers to random scatter, ie, variations in our judgment that are NOT caused by individual judgment. #BIAS on the other hand is systematic deviation in judgment.
@nataliexdean @EpiEllie @f2harrell – teach us more & did you read Kahneman’s book yet?

3/ Kahneman himself (see quote in @TheLancet review👆) acknowledges that this book is somewhat data-o-penic. We need much more knowledge about “noise”…it’s a limitation in science at this point. In Medicine, he claims #Psychiatry is an extreme noise factory…@APAPsychiatric
4/ No doubt our approaches to the #MentalHealth disabilities of #LongCOVID pts are jammed full of noise & bias. @CIBScenter we are studying numerous aspects of #COVID with our psychiatrists, so this book is going to be on my mind. @f2harrell

As a Physician Scientist in the ICU, I love our expanding trove of data, but acknowledge that in #COVID19 there had to be an immense amount of noise in our day-to-day care decisions. I’d love to learn others’ thoughts. @iwashyna @DogICUma
