B) It Is Closely Related To Evaluation
C) It Involves Choosing Between Courses Of Action
D) It Is Dependent Upon Finding The Cause Of The Problem
CORRECT ANS>>> C
Feedback:
Decision Making Is A Complex Cognitive Process Often Defined As Choosing A Particular Course
Of Action. Problem Solving Is Part Of Decision Making And Is A Systematic Process That Focuses
On Analyzing A Difficult Situation. Critical Thinking, Sometimes Referred To As Reflective
Thinking, Is Related To Evaluation And Has A Broader Scope Than Decision Making And Problem
Solving.
2. What Is A Weakness Of The Traditional Problem- Solving Method?
a) Its Need For Implementation Time
b) Its Lack Of A Step Requiring Evaluation Of Result
c) Its Failure To Gather Sufficient Data
d) Its Failure To Evaluate Alternatives
CORRECT ANS>>> A
Feedback:
The Traditional Problem-Solving Model Is Less Effective When Time Constraints Are A
Consideration. Decision Making Can Occur Without The Full Analysis Required In Problem
Solving. Because Problem Solving Attempts To Identify The Root Problem In Situations, Much
Time And Energy Are Spent On Identifying The Real Problem.

Always Play A Part In A Person's Decision Making, Either Consciously Or Subconsciously.
4. What Influences The Quality Of A Decision Most Often?
a) The Decision Maker's Immediate Superior
b) The Type Of Decision That Needs To Be Made
c) Questions Asked And Alternatives Generated
d) The Time Of Day The Decision Is Made
CORRECT ANS>>> C
Feedback:
The Greater Number Of Alternatives That Can Be Generated By The Decision Maker, The Better
The Final Decision Will Be. The Alternatives Generated And The Final Choices Are Limited By
Each Person's Value System.
5. What Does Knowledge About Good Decision Making Lead One To Believe?
a) Good Decision Makers Are Usually Right Brain, Initiative Thinkers
b) Effective Decision Makers Are Sensitive To The Situation And To Others
c) Good Decisions Are Ususally Made By Left Sided Brain
D) Good Decision Making Requires Analytic Rather Than Creative Process
CORRECT ANS>>> B
Feedback:
Good Decision Makers Seem To Have Antennae That Make Them Particularly Sensitive To Other
People And Situations. Left-Brain Thinkers Are Typically Better At Processing Language, Logic,
Numbers, And Sequential Ordering, Whereas Right-Brain Thinkers Excel At Nonverbal Ideation
And Holistic Synthesizing.
