Answer to Question 1

C
Reflective thinking (Pesut & Herman (1999) is the process where we watch ourselves as we perform a task and reflection after a situation has occurred can allow the individual to reflect upon the situation. The process of debriefing is a highly effective type of reflective thinking used in clinical settings to encourage the reflective self to evaluate a situation, problem, or event.

Answer to Question 2

B
Delaune and Ladner (2011) define decision making as considering and choosing from a repertoire of actions to achieve the desired outcome. There are five steps in the decision-making process. These five steps are: 1) decision making, 2) critical thinking, 2) reflective thinking, 4) intuitive thinking, and 5) problem solving. While critical thinking processes are used in fight-or-flight situations as well as clinical settings in health care, there is no specific type of thinking called fight-or-flight thinking or clinical thinking that is part of the decision-making process.
