Abstract
Health care can be categorized as a complex socio-technical system. Often, similar projects or systems experience very different outcomes during implementation. To better understand the differentiating success factors when comparing projects or systems, we argue there is a need to systematically compare complex socio-technical systems. While Cognitive Engineering offers many methods for analyzing complex socio-technical systems, such as Cognitive Work Analysis, few methods support a comparison paradigm. We propose using Cognitive Work Analysis and using it to compare two similar socio-technical systems through Comparative Cognitive Work Analysis. Through parallel phases to Cognitive Work Analysis, the comparative method allows for the identification of differentiating factors, which we call Junctions, and allows practitioners to identify design opportunities to introduce success interventions into existing designs. Future work will involve further development of this concept and its application to healthcare problems.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
