There are two types of decision making: involuntary and voluntary. Involuntary decisions are made out of habit and are automatic, having been learned over time. Voluntary decisions take more time and consideration of pros and cons as they depend on specific situations, goals, people involved, and occasions. Both types of decisions can be influenced by outside factors like incentives, hidden persuaders in media, credible sources, authority figures, and peer pressure. Most of the time, people learn from their decisions about what works and doesn't.
Personality Disorders in Family Law and How to HelpDon Boice
Many of the people who go to court to settle their divorce have a different set of goals than the norm. Using game theory, you can help them and transform the system itself.

"Co-founder conflict is the biggest value destroyer in my VC portfolio” said a friend of mine a few weeks back.
This resonated with me, as I have over the years consciously observed how organisations handle conflicts at the ownership level and prevent their escalation!
I have also stepped in to resolve issues in some of them.
A simple 3 step process has evolved through these experimentation's observations and reflections. Our learnings and a snap shot of the process are in the attached note.
Would be interested to hear experiences of people who have successfully implemented mechanisms to surface conflicts and prevent escalations. People who are grappling with live challenges in resolving such conflicts can also reach out.

Outcomes of a social, multi-user, tablet-based game to prevent substance abus...husITa
High rates of substance abuse (SA) and relationship violence (RV) among teens suggests a need to create innovative prevention programs. Our study evaluated Choice and Consequences (C&C), a social, multi-user, tablet-based game to reduce the risks associated with SA and RV.
For 7 class periods across two weeks, 35 students played the game, selecting activities to create a fun, but safe weekend. C&C presented various scenarios, such as someone starts touching you without your consent. Players received points and rationales for each action they selected that informed them as to the fun and risk associated with the actions.
Following game playing, students (n=24) participated in three separate gender focus groups. Each focus group addressed the level of realism of the game, ability to learn from the game and aspects they liked/disliked about the game. Focus groups were audiotaped and transcribed. Transcriptions were analyzed using NVivo 9.
Results from the focus groups found that boys and girls liked the concept of the game and its activities; they especially liked the social atmosphere during the game. They liked the facts that gave information on each action and consequence. They liked rating the fun level of each action. Youth preferred the delivery method over a didactic presentation. Youth agreed that the consequences of the actions choices were realistic; a player lost points for taking drugs, but gained points for looking cool with peers. Youth stated the game could help prevent SA and RV if played before they experience the problems presented in the game in real-life. The youth stated that the RV information may be more helpful than the SA information.
Results suggest that game delivery method, using multi-media is a promising prevention program method for youth. Results also suggest gaming may be applied to other areas of prevention.
Some people take risks more readily than other people. And risks can be a little scary, whether they involve making a major career change and/or cross-country move, asking for a promotion or a raise, declaring your affection to someone else when you’re not sure how that person feels, or when it necessitates speaking up to someone whose behavior has been making you unhappy. Risks come in all sizes and shapes.
The objective for this work "perception is reality, perception is everything" is to help business owners, entrepreneurs, marketers, politicians, individuals and all who aspire to leadership, understanding the concept of PERCEPTION and its critical important for success and significance in any aspect of life, ignorance in this all important index could mean failure at worst and at best living by chance.
A firm grasp of this concept of perception and its use to create, guarantees success and a replication of it in all areas of life.
I am sure that the proper use of this simple work would ensure a more rewarding life.
Enjoy sailing in this knowledge and look forward to more wind of thought.
Have fun.
One should not take any decision when in pressure one should always be cool and calm and think about all the pros and corns of the problem and then come up to a logical solution.
Decisions, decisions, decisions — we make them all the time! The life we are living right now, is the outcome of decisions we made in the past. Our future depends on the decisions that we will make today or tomorrow. To put it simply, decision making can be defined as a choice of action in an uncertain environment. There are routine and life-altering decisions; individual and group decisions; short-term and long-term decisions; high and low-stake decisions, and decisions that can be changed as well as decisions that are cast in stone — the list can go on indefinitely. Those who are not allowed to make decisions are not happy about it, and those who are entrusted to make decisions may feel burdened by the responsibility. Decisions are sometimes made by scribbling on the back of a paper napkin and at other times with the help of massive computer programs. Some decisions need to be made on the spot — in the blink of an eye — with other decisions it is often recommended that we sleep on it.
The scope of decision making is very wide, the process sometimes starkly complex and individual styles vary considerably. It is such a fundamental part of our existence and growth; however, many of us may not give enough thought to our approach to decision making — does my decision making need any tweaking or am I happy with it as it is? In order to understand our own style of decision making, we need to consider what are the major dimensions of decision making and where do we stand on each of the dimensions.
Here are 5 important dimensions of decision making:

What Is A Right Judgment or Making The Right or Intelligent Choice?Satjitkumar
Do you know your ability to evaluate and react to different situations? Right judgment does matter. If you judge things accurately, you can avoid several hurdles on your path to success. We often say that wrong is wrong, even if everybody is doing the same. On the other hand, a right is right, even if no one is doing it. The challenge in life is making a judgment, acknowledging chances, taking the right decisions, and enacting them at the proper time.
Why people don't think rationally, Five types of Psychological BiasesBabu Appat
Decision making is an art. Dexterous decision making requires polished skills. Psychological Bias are the common problem makers, which prevents effective decision making. Let us examine what are the common psychological biases and how to overcome these problem makers. Better decisions are required for business success and better life.
2. The 2 Ways People Make
Decisions
Involuntary decision making
Voluntary decision making
3. Involuntary Decision
Pattern of acting, thinking and feeling
Usually made out of habit, reflex and
repetition.
We learn them over time
4. Involuntary Decision
Especially if we get something in return such
as an incentive/reward.
For example: You are polite to someone at work
such as a customer and they treat you back
nicely even ask to talk to a manager because
you were polite to them you get employee of
the month and get a raise for being polite to
customers that makes you want to be polite to
every customer so that you get more good
things happen at work.
5. Involuntary Decision
All of us make involuntary
decisions without even
thinking of them most of
them are for our own safety
but sometimes not thinking
can also get us in trouble.
Many of our involuntary
decisions have to do with
hidden persuaders aka
hidden messages in movies,
videos, music (muzak), even
stores, images in
advertisements hidden
images that is all of these
make us respond differently.
6. Voluntary Decision
Depending on the Situation what you
decide, the goals you choose, who’s
involved in what you choose, what is
the occasion can have to do with what
you as an individual decide what
decision you take.
7. Voluntary Decision
Takes longer time to decide what
decision to make its more difficult need
to see the pros and cons of the decision
you are going to take what effects will it
have in the long run for that individual.
8. Voluntary Decision
But other outside sources can also
influence the individual such as:
Credible sources
Authority figures
Peer aka peer pressure
And many more…
9. Voluntary Decision
Many people look up
to authority figure to
question and decide
what is the best
decision to take.
10. Voluntary Decision
But most of the time while thinking out
of all these decisions we learn from
what we do right and what we do wrong
and what will do better next time.
