    What are the characteristics of the administrative decision making model?

    The administrative model of decision making assumes that decision makers' rationality is bounded and that they're willing to consider only a limited number of criteria and alternatives before making decisions. As a consequence, they settle for the first 'good enough' solution that they find.

    Which of the following are characteristics of the administrative decision making model except?

    Question: All of the following are characteristics of the administrative decision making model, except: a. Satifying Conditions of certainty b. Limited information about alternatives and outcomes c. Vague problems and goals d.

    What is the administrative model of decision making?

    The administrative model of decision-making is founded on the belief that decision-makers are constrained by limited motivation and lack of time. As a result, they end up settling on less ideal solutions. Also referred to as the bounded rationality model, the approach assumes that people are not 100% rational.

    What are the 4 decision making models?

    The four different decision-making models—rational, bounded rationality, intuitive, and creative—vary in terms of how experienced or motivated a decision maker is to make a choice. Choosing the right approach will make you more effective at work and improve your ability to carry out all the P-O-L-C functions.
