I would look for information on decision-making trees, which are guides to making a decision. Also, I would investigate the role emotion plays. People who are stressed, fatigued, angry, etc. make more errors (I assume). What does the literature tell you? What are the factors involved in making WRONG decisions? The CDC website and the Institute of Medicine site might have info as they have articles on medication errors. Good luck
