b. A set of rules
c. Articles in journals
d. Advice from supervisors

ANS: B

clinical decisions. Intuition is included in decision making when functioning at the level of an expert practitioner. While information
in journal articles and advice from supervisors may assist in making decisions, novice nurses do not typically base their decisions on
them. It would also be important that if information from journal articles and advice from supervisors were used, that they were
evidence based.
