Abstract This article discusses the impact of computerized, elaboration-based expert system interfaces on de-skilling to improve the process of decision-making. The use of decision aids as part of the audit process has been well documented in practice and the subject of considerable study. The development and implementation of expert systems has expanded that evaluation due to the special characteristics of expert systems. Expert systems have been the subject of study in accounting for many years. Since the knowledge of experts is captured into the expert system knowledge base, it is important to consider how this knowledge can be transferred to the user in an experiential setting, similar to that encountered during the course of the audit. As with the initial stage in any new technology, research was initially undertaken to examine the feasibility of actually creating expert systems. This initial stage was undertaken in computer science and evolved in the medical domain. This early work supported the technical feasibility of developing expert systems.
