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

eedback:
Decision making is a complex cognitive process often defined as choosing a particular courseof
o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o
action. Problem solving is part of decision making and is a systematic process that focuseson an
o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o
alyzing a difficult situation. Critical thinking, sometimes referred to as reflective thinking, is rel
o o o o o o o o o o o o o
ated to evaluation and has a broader scope than decision making and problem solving.
o o o o o o o o o o o o o
2. What
1. A) Its need for implementation time
o o o o o
2. B) Its lack of a step requiring evaluation of results
o o o o o o o o o
3. C) Its failure to gather sufficient data
o o o o o o
4. D) Its failure to evaluate alternatives
o o o o o
Ans: A Fe o o
edback:
The traditional problem-
o o
solving model is less effective when time constraints are a consideration. Decision making can
o o o o o o o o o o o o o o
occur without the full analysis required in problem solving. Because problem solving attempts t
o o o o o o o o o o o o o
o identify the root problem in situations, muchtime and energy are spent on identifying the real p
o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o
roblem.
3. Which of the following statements is true regarding decision making?
o o o o o o o o o
1. A) Scientific methods provide identical decisions by different individuals for thesa
o o o o o o o o o o o
me problems o
, 2. B) Decisions are greatly influenced by each persons value system
o o o o o o o o o
3. C) Personal beliefs can be adjusted for when the scientific approach to problemso
o o o o o o o o o o o o o
lving is used o o
4. D) Past experience has little to do with the quality of the decision
o o o o o o o o o o o o
Ans: BFe o o
edback:
Values, life experience, individual preference, and individual ways of thinking will influencea p
o o o o o o o o o o o o o
ersons decision making. No matter how objective the criteria will be, value judgments willalwa
o o o o o o o o o o o o o o
ys play a part in a persons decision making, either consciously or subconsciously.

4. What influences the quality of a decision most often? A) The decision makers immediatesu

perior
B) The type of decision that needs to be made
o o o o o o o o
C) Questions asked and alternatives generated o o o o
D) The time of day the decision is made
o o o o o o o o
Ans: C o
Feedback:
The greater the number of alternatives that can be generated by the decision maker, the betterthe
o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o
final decision will be. The alternatives generated and the final choices are limited by eachperso
o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o
ns value system.

5. What
1. A) Good decision makers are usually right-brain, intuitive thinkers
o o o o o o o o
2. B) Effective decision makers are sensitive to the situation and to others
o o o o o o o o o o o
3. C) Good decisions are usually made by left-brain, logical thinkers
o o o o o o o o o
4. D) Good decision making requires analytical rather than creative processes
o o o o o o o o o
Ans: B Fe o o
edback:
Good decision makers seem to have antennae that make them particularly sensitive to other
o o o o o o o o o o o o o
, people and situations. Left-
o o o
brain thinkers are typically better at processing language, logic,numbers, and sequential orde

ring, whereas right-brain thinkers excel at nonverbal ideationand holistic synthesizing.

does knowledge about good decision making lead one to believe?

2. B) The evaluation phase of the executive role
o o o o o o o
3. C) One step in the problem-solving process
