Abstract
This article discusses and identifies the weaknesses of approaches to assessing computerized decision support (CDS) systems, examining the design of two CDS systems, “DXplain” and the “Problem Knowledge Coupler” (PKC). It suggests that the inadequate assessment of CDS technologies will promote a conservative orientation toward their diffusion.Keywords
