Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Programmed decisions are associated with decision rules or a specific set of guidelines that prescribe a definite course of action in a particular situation. These decisions are usually repetitive, routine, and structured, and can be made through a straightforward decision-making process. Nonprogrammed decisions are not associated with decision rules, are unique and novel, and require significant thinking and analysis. Ill-structured decisions are messy, complex, and ambiguous, with incomplete information, and no clear-cut solution.
