Summary
Calibration, defined as alignment between a person’s diagnostic accuracy and their confidence in that accuracy, is an essential component of diagnostic excellence. Miscalibration—the misalignment between a person’s diagnostic accuracy and their confidence in that accuracy—can manifest as either overconfidence or underconfidence and can have serious consequences for patient diagnosis. This resource about calibration from the US Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ) is primarily aimed at individual clinicians whose scope of practice includes diagnosis. It focuses on processes involved in making a diagnosis and the outcome of giving an explanatory label to patients after these processes unfold.
