What is signal detection theory?Signal detection theory is the measure of distinction between signals that carry information and signals that are just noise. Measuring the difference is important to make sure decisions are based on actual information, and not random noise or minimizing the amount of uncertainty involved in decision making. In the healthcare field specifically, this is crucial to ensure hospital staff can tell the difference between specific alarms and act on that information.
I conducted my own signal detection experiment on myself. You can read about it
