1. What statement is true regarding decision making?
e e e e e e




A) It is an analysis of a situation
e e e e e e




B) It is closely related to evaluation
e e e e e




C) It involves choosing between courses of action
e e e e e e




D) It is dependent upon finding the cause of a problem Ans:
e e e e e e e e e e




C Feedback: e




Decision making is a complex cognitive process often defined as choosing a particular course of
e e e e e e e e e e e e e e




e action. Problem solving is part of decision making and is a systematic process that focuses on
e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e




e analyzing a difficult situation. Critical thinking, sometimes referred to as reflective thinking, is
e e e e e e e e e e e e




e related to evaluation and has a broader scope than decision making and problem solving.
e e e e e e e e e e e e e




2. What

1. A) Its need for implementation time e e e e e




2. B) Its lack of a step requiring evaluation of results
e e e e e e e e e




3. C) Its failure to gather sufficient data e e e e e e




4. D) Its failure to evaluate alternatives e e e e e




Ans: A e




e Feedback
:
The traditional problem-solving model is less effective when time constraints are a
e e e e e e e e e e e




e consideration. Decision making can occur without the full analysis required in problem
e e e e e e e e e e e




e solving. Because problem solving attempts to identify the root problem in situations, much time
e e e e e e e e e e e e e




e and energy are spent on identifying the real problem.
e e e e e e e e




3. Which of the following statements is true regarding decision making?
e e e e e e e e e




1. A) Scientific methods provide identical decisions by different individuals for the
e e e e e e e e e e




e same problems e

2. B) Decisions are greatly influenced by each persons value system
e e e e e e e e e




3. C) Personal beliefs can be adjusted for when the scientific approach to problem
e e e e e e e e e e e e




e solving is used e e




4. D) Past experience has little to do with the quality of the decision
e e e e e e e e e e e e




Ans: e B
e Feedback
:
Values, life experience, individual preference, and individual ways of thinking will influence a
e e e e e e e e e e e e




e persons decision making. No matter how objective the criteria will be, value judgments will
e e e e e e e e e e e e e




e always play a part in a persons decision making, either consciously or subconsciously.
e e e e e e e e e e e e




is a weakness of the traditional problem-solving model?

e immediate superior e




B) The type of decision that needs to be made
e e e e e e e e




C) Questions asked and alternatives generated e e e e




D) The time of day the decision is e e e e e e




e made Ans: C e e




Feedback:
The greater the number of alternatives that can be generated by the decision maker, the better the
e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e




e final decision will be. The alternatives generated and the final choices are limited by each
e e e e e e e e e e e e e e




e persons value system. e e




5. What

1. A) Good decision makers are usually right-brain, intuitive thinkers
e e e e e e e e




2. B) Effective decision makers are sensitive to the situation and to others
e e e e e e e e e e e
