Abstract

Bayesian Belief Networks (BBNs) have a long tradition in medical expert systems for the support of diagnostic reasoning and therapy planning. Usually the BBN containing the uncertain knowledge of the experts is hidden from the user. New to case-based diagnostic training systems is that the structure of the BBN is not hidden from the student, but supports the learning process by visualizing the correlations between different symptoms, sequelas, causes, etc. of the contemplated disease. The BBN is embedded in a problem-oriented context. Students are confronted with naturalistic diagnostic problems. They are asked to state diagnostic hypotheses and to test these hypotheses using the BBN. In this way strategic diagnostic skills are developed. In an evaluation study students confirmed the novelty and importance of the learning environment and that the complexity of the BBN representation was no problem to them.
