Definición

  • Accountability refers to the implicit or explicit expectation that one may be called on to justify one's beliefs, feelings, and actions to others. Although most theories of decision making have conveniently assumed that decision makers act as isolated individuals, decision makers, including those in the field of medicine, seldom think and act free from social influences.
