Abstract
Feedback loops are vital for decision-making and behavior change in health systems, but not
all feedback is of equal value. Clinical performance feedback to healthcare professionals and
teams has potential for large effects on clinical practice, but evidence suggests that low-value
performance feedback is widespread. A primary barrier to understanding the value of
feedback loops in health systems may be a lack of a well-defined model and shared semantics
for the information that they carry. An ontology for audit and feedback research may be used
to address these issues by standardizing feedback intervention metadata. Research describing
feedback interventions recognizes differences between the content of the feedback and its
delivery process. However, terms describing feedback intervention content are inconsistent,
and appear to vary considerably between audit and feedback frameworks, which can result in
confusion around what is being delivered in a performance summary. Our objective was to
develop an ontology of a performance summary in a clinical performance feedback
intervention for the purposes of standardizing metadata. We developed the Performance
Summary Display Ontology (PSDO) iteratively by 1) identifying terms for classes from
behavior change theories relating to feedback interventions and cognitive theories of
visualization, 2) searching for relevant existing ontologies and classes, and 3) using the terms
to specify information content and visual displays in published examples of dashboard
displays and feedback reports. PSDO is a lightweight application ontology that specifies
performance information content and its representations for the purpose of feedback
intervention research and evaluation. PSDO contains 3 primary domains: 1) Performance
information content, based on constructs from behavior change theories, 2) Marks and their
qualities, based on constructs from visualization theories, and 3) roles that link marks,
information content, and other emergent characteristics, as interpreted information. PSDO
may enable standardization of metadata for the study of feedback interventions.
