Abstract

The assessment of user preferences for performance characteristics of patient-oriented clinical prediction models is lacking. It is unknown if complex statistical aspects of prediction models are readily understandable by a general audience.  A pilot study was conducted among nonclinical audiences to determine the feasibility of interpreting statistical concepts that describe the performance of prediction models.
