“…More importantly, they also found that the overall effectiveness is strongly dependent on the graphicacy (graphical literacy) 24 of the individual. Such findings also indicate how charts and graphics can be both evaluated using metrics such as esthetic value, learning efficiency and performance efficiency, 27 as well as what cognitive abilities and expertise are involved in the design of such graphs. 28 Building on a body of such work, Franconeri et al 29 present a comprehensive overview of research-backed guidelines for creating effective visualizations designed for communicating data to its viewers.…”

We present results from a preregistered and crowdsourced user study where we asked members of the general population to determine whether two samples represented using different forms of data visualizations are drawn from the same or different populations. Such a task reduces to assessing whether the overlap between the two visualized samples is large enough to suggest similar or different origins. When using idealized normal curves fitted on the samples, it is essentially a graphical formulation of the classic Student’s t-test. However, we speculate that using more sophisticated visual representations, such as bar histograms, Wilkinson dot plots, strip plots, or Tukey boxplots will both allow people to be more accurate at this task as well as better understand its meaning. In other words, the purpose of our study is to explore which visualization best scaffolds novices in making graphical inferences about data. However, our results indicate that the more abstracted idealized bell curve representation of the task yields more accuracy.

“…Para que desde el diseño se puedan responder estas cuestiones y sea posible alcanzar una implementación efectiva del modelo, es necesario reconocer que cualquier objeto, incluso uno visual, está constituido por un discurso, en el cual subyacen estructuras narrativas que lo pueden hacer más eficiente o menos interesante, dependiendo de qué tan bien esté identificada y elaborada dicha estructura en lo visual (Barnes, 2016). A partir de este reconocimiento es donde se empieza a trabajar con la narrativa, la cual consiste en «telling a story from memory without the aid of a book or written script» [contar una historia desde la memoria sin la ayuda de un libro o un guion escrito] (traducción propia) (Agosto, 2016, p. 21).…”

Los principios disciplinares del Diseño de Información pueden ampliar las posibilidades de la experiencia educativa en la enseñanza médica. Este artículo muestra evidencia cualitativa de que un modelo en el que intervienen tres áreas distintas: medicina, educación y diseño, puede ser potenciado mediante la intervención de ideas y prácticas que prevalecen en el Diseño de Información como eje rector en la toma de decisiones, y como fuerza integradora de los procesos conceptuales y creativos, capaz de coordinar e integrar las diferentes perspectivas de estas tres áreas del conocimiento. Sumando el uso de métodos centrados en el usuario, como la técnica Delphi, se pudo abordar la creación de un modelo instruccional original que sirve como guía a los profesores de medicina para diseñar materiales digitales y fomentar el razonamiento clínico en estudiantes de pregrado.
