BDT more than CDT, but . . . Type of Decision: Type of Decision Programmed (Routine) About 90% of all decisions Non-programmed (Unique) About 10% With Non-programmed QUASI-optimizing Cognitive limitations, but more systematic approach, search, and evaluation Decision Making: Biases and Heuristics: Decision Making: Biases and Heuristics There’s more going on than just “rational” vs. “nonrational”...Decision Making Quiz: Decision Making QuizQ1: Which of the following causes more deaths in the US each year?: Q1: Which of the following causes more deaths in the US each year?

He is very interested in the arts and at one time considered a career as a musician. Is Mark more likely to take a job A) In the management of the arts? B) With a management consulting firm? Decision Making: Biases and Heuristics: Decision Making: Biases and Heuristics Representativeness:Q3: A certain town is served by two hospitals. In the larger hospital about 45 babies are born each day and in the smaller hospital about 15 babies are born each day. As you know, about 50 percent of all babies are boys. However, the exact percentage varies from day to day. Sometimes it may be higher than 50 percent, sometimes lower. For a period of one year, each hospital recorded the days in which more than 60 percent of the babies born were boys. Which hospital do you think recorded more such days? The larger hospital? The smaller hospital? About the same? (that is, within 5 percent of each other): Q3: A certain town is served by two hospitals.

Drawing a red marble seven times in succession, with replacement (a selected marble is put back into the bag before the next marble is selected), from a bag containing 90 percent red marbles and 10 percent white marbles. Drawing at least one red marble in seven tries, with replacement, from a bag containing 10 percent red marbles and 90 percent white marbles.Conjunctive and Disjunctive events: Conjunctive and Disjunctive eventsListed below are 10 uncertain quantities.
