If a student accepts every suggestion and loses direction, which decision skill is weak?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Filtering suggestions and matching them with the goal
Good decision-making does not mean rejecting all advice or accepting all of it. The student should examine the source and relevance of each suggestion, compare it with the goal and available evidence, and then adopt, adapt, or reject it. This filtering and goal matching preserves direction; options B and C describe the problem, not the solution.
