Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Ambiguity occurs when there is lack of clarity or uncertainty in the decision-making process. When alternatives are difficult to define, it can lead to ambiguity and difficulty in making a decision. The other options - B) objectives being well defined, C) information about outcomes being readily available, D) all alternatives being known, and E) decisions already being made - do not necessarily lead to ambiguity. In fact, well-defined objectives and readily available information about outcomes can help to reduce ambiguity, while knowing all the alternatives and having decisions already made implies a lack of ambiguity in the decision-making process.
