Sociotechnical Systems• Coined in 1960s by Eric Trist, Ken Bamforth &
Fred Emery
• “An approach to complex organizational work design that recognizes the interaction between people and technology in workplaces.” (Wikipedia)
• “Interaction between society's complex infrastructures and human behaviour.” (Wikipedia)

“People & Organizational Issues” (POI)• POI focuses on interactions between people
and technology, including designing, implementing, and deploying safe and usable health information systems and technology.
• AMIA POIWG addresses issues such as– How systems change us and our social and clinical
environments– How we should change them– What we need to do to take the fullest advantage of
them to improve [...] health and health care. – Our members strive to understand,
evaluate, and improve human-computer and socio-technical interactions.

“People & Organizational Issues” (POI)• We bring varied perspectives, methods, and tools
from– Humanities, Social science, Cognitive science– Computer science and informatics– Business disciplines– Patient safety– Workflow– Collaborative work and decision-making– Human-computer interaction & Usability– Human factors– Project and change management– Adoption and diffusion of innovations– Unintended consequences– Policy.

Health IT Successes & Failures
Kaplan & Harris-Salamone (2009)
11
Health IT Successes & FailuresWhat success is• Different ideas and definitions of success• Need more understanding of different stakeholder
views & more longitudinal and qualitative studies of failure
What makes it so hard• Communication, Workflow, & Quality• Difficulties of communicating across different
groups makes it harder to identify requirements and understand workflow
Kaplan & Harris-Salamone (2009)
12
Health IT Successes & FailuresWhat We Know—Lessons from Experience• Provide incentives, remove disincentives• Identify and mitigate risks• Allow resources and time for training, exposure,
and learning to input data• Learn from the past and from others
Kaplan & Harris-Salamone (2009)

18
Minimizing MD’s Change Resistance
• Involve physician champions• Create a sense of ownership through
communications & involvement• Understand their values• Be attentive to climate in the organization• Provide adequate training & support
Riley & Lorenzi (1995)
19
Reasons for User Involvement• Better understanding of needs & requirements• Leveraging user expertise about their tasks &
how organization functions• Assess importance of specific features for
prioritization
• Users better understand project, develop realistic expectations
• Venues for negotiation, conflict resolution
• Sense of ownership• Pare & Sicotte (2006): Physician ownership
important for clinical information systems
Ives & Olson (1984)

The “Special People”
Ash et al. (2003)
22
The “Special People”
Ash et al. (2003)
• Administrative Leadership Level– CEO
• Provides top level support and vision
• Holds steadfast• Connects with
the staff• Listens• Champions
– CIO• Selects champions• Gains support• Possesses vision• Maintains a thick skin
– CMIO• Interprets• Possesses vision• Maintains a thick skin• Influences peers• Supports the clinical
support staff• Champions
23
The “Special People”
Ash et al. (2003)
• Clinical Leadership Level– Champions
• Necessary• Hold steadfast• Influence peers• Understand other
physicians
– Opinion leaders• Provide a balanced
view• Influence peers
– Curmudgeons• “Skeptic who is
usually quite vocal in his or her disdain of the system”
• Provide feedback• Furnish leadership
– Clinical advisory committees
• Solve problems• Connect units
24
The “Special People”
Ash et al. (2003)
• Bridger/Support level– Trainers &
support team• Necessary• Provide help at the
elbow• Make changes• Provide training• Test the systems
– Skills• Possess clinical
backgrounds• Gain skills on the
job• Show patience,
tenacity, and assertiveness
25
Unintended Consequences of Health IT
• “Unanticipated and unwanted effect of health IT implementation” (ucguide.org)
• Must-read resources– www.ucguide.org– Ash et al. (2004)– Campbell et al. (2006)– Koppel et al. (2005)
26
Unintended Consequences of Health IT
Ash et al. (2004)
27
Unintended Consequences of Health IT
• Errors in the process of entering and retrieving information– A human-computer interface that is not suitable
for a highly interruptive use context– Causing cognitive overload by
overemphasizing structured and “complete” information entry or retrieval
• Structure• Fragmentation• Overcompleteness
Ash et al. (2004)
28
Unintended Consequences of Health IT
• Errors in the communication and coordination process– Misrepresenting collective, interactive work as
a linear, clearcut, and predictable workflow• Inflexibility• Urgency• Workarounds• Transfers of patients
– Misrepresenting communication as information transfer
• Loss of communication• Loss of feedback• Decision support overload• Catching errors

Anthropology; Visual and Industrial Design; …

Foundations of UI Design (1)
• Human psychology– Short-term & long-term memory– Problem-solving– Attention
• Design principles– Conceptual models; knowledge in the world;
visibility; feedback; mappings; constraints; affordances
From University of Minnesota CS 5115 User interface design class (2008) by Loren Terveen
3838
Foundations of UI Design (2)
• Understanding users and tasks– Tasks, task analysis, scenarios– Contextual inquiry– Personas
• User-centered design– Low, medium, and high-fidelity prototypes– visual design principles
• Evaluating designs– Without users: cognitive walkthroughs; heuristic
evaluation; action analysis– With users: qualitative and quantitative methods
From University of Minnesota CS 5115 User interface design class (2008) by Loren Terveen

Human Factors
• “The study of designing equipment and devices that fit the human body and its cognitive abilities” (Wikipedia)
• Also known as “Ergonomics”• Specialties
– Physical ergonomics– Cognitive ergonomics (including HCI)– Organizational ergonomics (including
workplace design)– Environmental ergonomics
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human_factors_and_ergonomics

Usability
• “Refers to how well users can learn and use a product to achieve their goals and how satisfied they are with that process” (Usability.gov)
• “The ease of use and learnability of a human-made object” (Wikipedia)
• “The extent to which a product can be used by specified users to achieve specified goals with effectiveness, efficiency, and satisfaction in a specified context of use (ISO)
• Key methodology: user-centered designhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Usability
41
Usability & Usable Systems
• Usefulness = Usability + Utility (Jakob Nielsen)
• Dimensions of usability– Learnability: How easy it is for users to accomplish
basic tasks the first time?– Efficiency: Once learned, how quickly can users
perform tasks?– Memorability: When returned after a period of non-
use, how easily can users re-establish proficiency?– Errors: Frequency, severity, recoverability– Satisfaction: How pleasant it is to use?

42
User Experience
• “The way a person feels about using a product, system or service” (Wikipedia)
• Focuses on the feelings and perceptions of users
• Subjective
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_experience
