The Doctor–Nurse Game Revisited
Abstract
The relationship between the doctor and the nurse is a special one, based on mutual respect and interdependence, steeped in history, and stereotyped in popular culture. The underlying interaction can often be characterized as a game. In 1967 one of us described how doctors and nurses related to one another at that time.1 In this article we address the question of change. From our observations we are convinced that there have been major changes in the doctornurse relationship over the past two decades. To describe these changes we will briefly review the relationship that prevailed in 1967 and contrast it . . .

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
