Intuition In Decision-Making, Joanne Horton Dec 1993

Intuition In Decision-Making, Joanne Horton

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

This was a two-phase study designed to identify intuitive principals and then to determine if there were common elements of their decision making.

Recommendations included the …

An Assessment Of Role Ambiguity, Role Conflict, Role Frustration, And Job Satisfaction Of Presidents At Selected Private Four-Year Colleges In The Southeastern United States, Gary W. Juhan

The method of the study was correlational in design. Using a thirty-seven item questionnaire developed by the author, data were collected from 141 college presidents of institutions within the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools.
