Fig. 1. Graph shows mean cumulative number of case decision outcomes
as function of time to decision for mammographers for final-decision phase.
Most true-positive responses ([UNK]) were made within 40 sec. These responses
were offset by false-positive responses for cases with normal findings
(
) and false-positive responses for cases with abnormal findings
(
) that began to influence performance at 20 sec. False-positive
responses for normal cases continued to influence performance throughout time
course of viewing, but false-positive responses for abnormal cases leveled off
at approximately 40 sec, and true-positive responses continued to outweigh
false-positive responses for both normal and abnormal cases throughout time of
viewing.
