Abstract

Despite the widespread use of process models in healthcare organizations, there are many unresolved issues regarding the reading and comprehension of these models by domain experts. This is aggravated by the fact that there exists a plethora of process modeling languages for the graphical documentation of processes, which are often not used consistently for various reasons. Hence, the identification of those factors fostering the comprehension of process models becomes crucial. We have developed a conceptual framework incorporating measurements and theories from cognitive neuroscience and psychology to unravel factors fostering the comprehension of process models within organizations. We believe that a better comprehension of process models will enhance the support of healthcare processes significantly.
